If you look at the link I posted, Keenum has an equally fat contract. Guaranteed $25 million, that the Broncos are still on the hook for $7 million of, with a $10 million dead cap. Can't see Denver keeping him around as a $18 million backup. As one of the previous posters said, is Flacco really that much of an upgrade?

The Gipper Posted February 14, 2019 Report Share Posted February 14, 2019 QB Veteran Carousel: One player jumped off one horse and on to another: Flacco....off the merry go round...on to the Broncos. Now what about: Foles. Redskins could be a good place for him....but Eagles would never trade him in-division. Tannehill could either be had in trade....or end up on the street. Bortles....see Tannehill Keenum....will he just be kept by Denver....or will he be put on the block. Carr.....some say he may be traded. Rosen.....more than one said that Cards will take Murray....and trade Rosen....possibly to the Pats. Tyrod Taylor....is a FA. Where could he land? Back here? (makes some sense) Teddy Twatwater....not sure if he is FA or not. Miami/Jax/DC could be landing spots. Sam Bradford....is available if anyone wants him. Ryan Fitzpatrick....the same. Eli Manning. He will be safe with the Giants.....until they possibly draft Hankins.....and use Eli as a bridge QB. Anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksonville*, Eagles former OC John Deflippo now OC at Jags Tannehill could either be had in trade....or end up on the street. Now with Flores in house with 5 years, I'd say draft high & best player wins. Bortles....see Tannehill....1 year back-up deal elsewhere, not at Jags,maybe Redskins? Keenum....will he just be kept by Denver....or will he be put on the block. Too much dough owed to keep in Denver with Flacco, how bout a back-up to Cousins again? Carr.....some say he may be traded. Chuckie will come to his senses.BPA.Carr stays 1 more season, than Vegas Drafts from better QB class next season Rosen.....more than one said that Cards will take Murray....and trade Rosen....possibly to the Pats. The GM in Zona is clueless. He's capable of anything, lean trade Tyrod Taylor....is a FA. Where could he land? Back here? (makes some sense) Why does Baltimore make sense now? TT could compete to start. back-up money here? not sure Teddy Twatwater....not sure if he is FA or not. Miami/Jax/DC could be landing spots. Am not sure Teddy gave up cross-dressing? Knee for a leg in DC? Maybe at fair price.. Sam Bradford....is available if anyone wants him. This guy made more money for completing 8 yard passes than I've ever seen..now living in a van down by the river.. Ryan Fitzpatrick....the same. Buffalo again..me you & god could play back up QB better than Peterman Eli Manning. He will be safe with the Giants.....until they possibly draft Hankins.....and use Eli as a bridge QB. Davis Webb Sucks canal water..Getelman drafts Haskins Anyone else? How good is Drew Stanton on the field in Dorsey's mind? we shall see Interesting layout Gip..had to take a swing (surely with a few misses) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would not surprise me if a lot of what you say happens. And I still think that TT could do no better than to stay here as a backup. If he doesn't have a clue that his future in this league is as a backup and not a starter...then he is fooling himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5150k9 Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Interesting article on CBS mock draft. Because they traded for Flacco they trade down, we trade up to their 10th pick and get Dexter lawrence -DT-Clemson. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2019-nfl-mock-draft-broncos-move-down-after-flacco-trade-as-browns-hop-into-top-10-for-defensive-tackle/?fbclid=IwAR3gpFq4XDLIn7K-i4Q1foUHdwdWHTyF5kje08TFjLtKQO_Xk8Os6kNaQls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not, but just thought it was an interesting article that they would trade down now. But your scenario I would also feel would be worth it.

It's somewhat dated, but there is a "draft value" chart... http://walterfootball.com/draftchart.php to move up from #17 to #10 costs you 350 points that your have to make up somewhere.... Our second round pick is worth 410, meaning the Broncos would owe us 60 somewhere... There's also the "Quarterback premium". Teams wanting to move up for a QB generally have to give up a lot more than what the chart says they should have to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Steve Posted February 16, 2019 Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 I really hope Baltimore regrets this trade. Not because I give a fuck about Joe Flacco but anything that bums out the Ravens is great in my book. WSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
