The KD pursuit isn’t dead though. I still don’t think Brooklyn keeps him and will cave to an offer.

It’ll be weird when Belichek finally retires

[versed forge]

Noice i want kd

[honest umbra]

i also want KD

[haughty moss]

facts

[smoky fable]

You have Lebron and AD

[honest umbra]

yea

but what about lebron and KD

[versed forge]

👀

That would be insane

Id like to see that if Kd doesn’t go to the suns

[honest umbra]

nobody else in the world would wanna

except lakers

[versed forge]

Id also like to see kd with the bulls

[honest umbra]

but we dont have enough assets to even get half of KD

lol

[versed forge]

True

Imagine lakers get both kd and kyrie

[honest umbra]

in no world

that ever happens

nba would shut down

[smoky fable]

Nothing announced yet

[honest umbra]

isnt this the team kawhi beat?

[loud forum]

Yes not to downplay kawhi’s ring. They were missing KD and klay. If I remember correctly

Still a ring is a ring

[proud coyote]

expected

they're going to try and trade him now mid-season but they can't get KD anymore

[smoky fable]

No they still can

Where are you getting they can’t get KD anymore?

[proud coyote]

I just figured the package wouldn't be enough for brooklyn without a three team scenario

in which ayton went elsewhere in return for brooklyn getting more

[smoky fable]

Who else would offer Brooklyn a better deal? The raptors won’t put in Barnes or Siakam reportedly, and that’s the team that would most threaten their chances

And the suns have a better offer with the first round picks with Mikal and Cam Johnson.

The Nets never wanted DA

[proud coyote]

I simply don't think they'll trade him

no package is available, barring some crazy multi-team trade, that would be worth it for the nets

[smoky fable]

I think they will, with how this plays out.

[celest zephyr]

I woke from a month of sleep away from football

Wtf happened Barcelona, Chelsea, inter, city, and Arsenal

Mete and Benn. Huh

These guys are probably ahl guys though

Maybe one of them is the 7th man and holl gets moved

Don’t dislike either of these moves. Just 7th/8th d men and considering they’ve played a good amount of nhl games before it’s way better than plays guys who can’t even cut it at the nhl level

[celest zephyr]

Yeah that’s a lot. Happens when the market is very steep

They can trade ayton in the deal now, since he hasn’t gotten the designated rookie max

Which is giving a 5 year rookie max extension so doesn’t count for guys who went to rfa then got the 5 year max contract

https://hoopshype.com/lists/nba-designated-rookie-rule/

[smoky fable]

They can’t trade him till January 15th

Since the Suns matched

[celest zephyr]

Yeah

And then only with his consent to a team not the pacers for a year

Nets are fine waiting since unless the raptors or Knicks pay a ton to get him he’ll be still there

And really that’d cripple at least the raptors

Knicks seem to be all on in the Mitchell sweepstakes and with no real contender if they meet the jazz’s demands since no other team can offer what they can they’ll probably get Donovan

[proud coyote]

damn weren't arsenal fans super high on this kid? @burnt cedar what's the deal?

[short spindle]

Kia Joorabchian

Talks over new deal broke down

[burnt cedar]

I mean we never played him

So I can see why he’s wanted to leave

If Chelsea have given him a clear career plan then it’s a good move for him

Probably the best winger of his group

But not too fussed there will be more wingers churned out of Hale End

Wish it wasn’t Chelsea he was going to tho

[short spindle]

Anyways City and Arsenal are working on Zinchenko deal

He's better than Martinez imo

[burnt cedar]

Both are meh

[short spindle]

There's many promising Hale End youngsters not too bugged about it

[burnt cedar]

Martinez for that price too is terrible

[burnt cedar]

If that was Flores leaving then I’d burn down the arsenal offices

[short spindle]

Only youngsters I'm hyped for are Cuffy and Flores

[burnt cedar]

Patino

[short spindle]

Him too

[burnt cedar]

Not sure why he didn’t go on tour

[short spindle]

Patino left out of USA tour squad

Prolly a loan move

We are bringing 5 keepers ffs

[burnt cedar]

I think we should keep him for the Europa league

[burnt cedar]

Runarsson ffs

Lowkey not feeling Matt Turner too

Hey @burnt cedar any idea about this dude? I’m super skeptical tbh. Italians generally would rather die than come to England lmao and the fact it’s us?? At his age and pedigree? Seems crazy

West Ham bid of €40m + add-ons for Sassuolo striker Gianluca Scamacca under consideration. PSG bid €35m + add-ons - but are now close to signing Hugo Ekitike. Broja still a WHU target. If deals get agreed with both, final decision rests with David Moyes. #Scamacca #Broja #WHUFC

[burnt cedar]

Everything you said about being skeptical about him is right

He was linked to us and I didn’t want him personally

He also got locked up by Harry Maguire when Italy played England

You’re better off getting Broja honestly

[robust grotto]

Thanks man

[burnt cedar]

I mean the last time West Ham had a controversial Italian

It was Di Canio

So you never know

But I feel like there’s safer options

Feels like scamacca has been offered to every club in Europe

[robust grotto]

Oh definitely. And if he works out he can absolutely be transferred for a high fee

[burnt cedar]

Yep

But if not you have Haller part 2

[robust grotto]

that’s the worry

Broja was seen with a boot on his foot this morning smh

[celest zephyr]

welp i'm prepared for the pain of having trey lance as a starting qb. he's not bad, but, unless he has a leap like josh allen at some point, yeah this will be rough sledding until he gets exiled like daniel jones will be and trubisky has been

its definitely possible with the shanahan system and a competent organization around him. He did get better in his second start also, but its still a leap of faith that he'll make a serious jump from being mediocre

[robust grotto]

Have faith lad

Nah man. Please …..

That’s painful to read

[short spindle]

If I was David Gold and Sullivan I would go for someone like Watkins

You're not making it out of hood with Antonio upfront

Or Broja but it's also risky

[robust grotto]

Villa doesn’t want to sell Watkins though

Broja yeah I can see that

[short spindle]

Most realistic option

[robust grotto]

Apparently got injured today smh

[short spindle]

It's all part of Sullivan's plan

Drive the price down

[robust grotto]

But all good. We’ll see. PSG signed Etikite so…

Scamacca really may be joining us….

We also need a LB bad dude

Like, really bad

[short spindle]

Heard Lewis Grabban wont extend

[robust grotto]

Idek who that is 😭

[short spindle]

Knocked us out of FA Cup

ST market is so thin nowdays

You can't find a decent striker under 40 mil

[robust grotto]

I’ll be honest I do prefer Scamacca over Broja in a lot of ways

[short spindle]

Should look into Zinchenko before we grab him

[robust grotto]

I think he’s a bit too expensive for us, Zinchenko

We can afford to spend big on ST but no so much LB

[short spindle]

We can always loan you Nuno "chaos" Tavares

[robust grotto]

Lmfao we do love a bit of chaos at west ham

[short spindle]

Holy shit

Astra Giorgiu got relegated

Last place -1 point aswell

I can't wait to find out who our secret winger target is

beginning to look like sandin might be moved

leafs have too many lhd for him to be guaranteed consistent minutes and he can't play rhd

that being said, i think its holl that gets moved since he's still worth a decent bit and he was already getting healthy scratched last season

biggest issue now is definitely top 6 LW

[robust grotto]

If Sandy is out bc of ducking jordie Benn or Mete then I’m throwing hands w Dubas

[celest zephyr]

idk anymore. its just odd that he hasn't been re-signed yet. guess its just trying to clear the logjam at lhd

i'm used to the pain

the sabres have won a playoff round since the leafs have

the yotes have during the matthews era

so have the lolhawks

bergevin somehow lucked his way into making the finals

the senators made it to the conference finals during matthews time with the leafs in 2017

so lol they actually already have beat matthews

[celest zephyr]

i have no clue how the leafs cap works

guessing they might actually carry like 20 players then

they now have to move one of holl/kerfoot/muzzin

also please sign sandin and give him minutes dubas

some team might offersheet and screw the leafs over

looking at cap, it'd just be waive clifford and simmonds, trade holl and then push down anderson

dubas hoping for marlies guys to be able to step up for cheap

do like this move though. solid defensive guy who can play on the third or fourth line. maybe the second line

could use another top 9 winger though

club sold some assets

sold BLM & a small percentage of the TV rights for like the next 20 years or so. Yeah probably not the best thing to do but it allows us to make signings and stay competitive.

With these signings + maybe more to come, should really go all in for the league. Don't wanna say we'll be contending for the UCL but anything is possible i guess lmao.

Chelsea accounts thinking they have hands on everyone

[short spindle]

Why do Barca need that many forwards

They replace Lewa with Auba just six months in

[silk notch]

And can Barca pay de jong so we can actually get him

[short spindle]

Nah most of their new signings wont receive wages

They're going to pay Raphinha sunflower seeds

[burnt cedar]

Barca will not exist in 2 years

Going all out now with signings before everyone involved will end up prison

[short spindle]

Ngl 45+5m for 33 year old is decent money

Curious to see who will replace him

Choupo Moting

[solid dagger]

They really need some defenders

Yet they keep spending money on attackers

While De Jong is waiting to get paid and apparently Barça is forcing his move to Man U

[short spindle]

Raphinha,Auba,Depay,Lewa,Braithwaite,Fati,Torres

Stacked

[solid dagger]

Even tho they will still have to pay him

[short spindle]

So confusing they are forcing him out but Laporta says they gave no plans to sell him

[burnt cedar]

Can they even register players

[short spindle]

Don't think so

Selling more TV rights (90+4) will come in cluch

[solid dagger]

Barça's squad reminds me of that drawing horse meme

Barça's attack vs its defense

[short spindle]

Ter Stegen is a fraud

They need a new gk

Cheeky €20 million bid for Leno 👀

[solid dagger]

They should also get a new cb

And probably a rb

But let's spend 60M on a winger lol

[short spindle]

Roberto shouldn't be there

Garcia is questionable at times

So a defender or two are deffo needed

[solid dagger]

Now that Koulibaly is off to Chelsea they're probably going to buy Kounde

[burnt cedar]

Christiansen 🔥🔥

[solid dagger]

Oh yeah

I mean he's a fine cb

[short spindle]

I heard Rob Holding is available for a bargain price 25 million euros

[solid dagger]

Daniele Rugani is also available for a cheaper 20 million euros

Great cb, buy him please

[silk notch]

Honestly if guess crop of signings flop it might be dire for them

But they should be fine unlike their previous purchases of griezmen and coutinho

So much applicability because he understands rhythm on a natural level. Very few players can play as a primary controller with metronomic efficiency, as well as a box-to-box blood hound with output focus. He can also play as a secondary controller and middle 3rd connector too

Yeah we’re desperate for one of Kravtsov or Othmann to be a top 9 player for us and have some sort of offense impact. We just don’t have cap to spend on well rounded bottom six guys. Our defense is silly young, that’s the difference really. Our 3rd pairing is likely going to be two rookies

NYR banking very heavily off youth stepping up this upcoming season

[celest zephyr]

kinda have to in the nhl

especially when the cap is so low compared to other leagues

[robust grotto]

no way around it anymore

[celest zephyr]

its either that or finding guys who are willing to play for dirt cheap

[robust grotto]

Colorado needed big time from guys on rookie deals

You just can’t avoid it

[celest zephyr]

and then it ends up being having to pay young guys or let them walk

and the whole cycle starts again

[robust grotto]

Tampa won with younger guys on bridge deals

[dim kettle]

Funny that you mention that when the Rangers before the cap era had the biggest payroll only to win 27 games. Like thank god the hard cap is a thing for them. Keeps them from going out of control lol

[robust grotto]

Yeah it definitely made management have to shift focus. Just goes to show winning on July first doesn’t mean shit

we’re still poor as an organization at developing forwards but that’s another convo

[celest zephyr]

yeah its good because otherwise it'd just be cash burning for big markets

hey the leafs can't develop goalies to save their lives

[dim kettle]

The Rangers were the Knicks of hockey before the cap era. Like, to this very day I'm convinced the cap was made to prevent the Rangers from being stupid in July.

[robust grotto]

definitely, cap lowkey saved teams like the rangers from being the anti coyotes

It’s true though, no argument from me

Vladislav Kamensky smiles every morning

As does Wade Redden

avoids an offersheet so they have to be traded

Need more time but right now, as a whole, not good enough. We had the smallest squad depth in the league all of last season, so small that we had 3 GK practically on every team sheet. Lost about 4/5 players this summer and only brought in 3, one of them making Areola permanent … so numbers wise we’re still short. It’s just not good enough.

Prepared for Matthews to probably pull a gaudreau and leave

Marner is Canadian so luckily he’ll probably want to stay if the leafs can have some success before his contract is up/ is extension eligible

Canadian tax is also just pain and misery as a leafs fan. Makes zero economic sense to stay in Toronto or any Canadian city long term

Doubt he joins the yotes right away. Probably going to play for the kings, ducks, knights or avs

If I had to guess, kings for la market or avs because they are contenders

Possibly, but the leafs cap space looks really ugly unless they can somehow dump Tavares’ contract

[robust grotto]

Sigh, yeah, I’m shot

[celest zephyr]

Nylander is going to want to get paid at least like 10 mill, Matthews can’t see being less than 14/15 mill

[robust grotto]

Less than 24 months until 34 needs a new contract

[celest zephyr]

Still have Reilly’s 7.5 mill

[robust grotto]

Time is ticking for Dubas

He may not have a job in Toronto in 12 months time for all we know

[celest zephyr]

Don’t think he will

The leafs are in cap hell

[robust grotto]

Shanahan as well, I’d imagine

[celest zephyr]

Yeah

The leafs will just have Reilly Brodie and need two top 4 dmen. They’d still have to pay sandin ( if he comes back) and lili

And they’d need a goalie

Unless cap goes to the moon the leafs are fucked

[robust grotto]

Christ

Well goalie is set, just may not like it is all

Murray , Samsonov, Kallgren

[celest zephyr]

It’s due to the pandemic sure but this is rough

[robust grotto]

If it makes you feel better NYR will probably have an all rookie third pairing D

[celest zephyr]

Yeah for next season and maybe the season after don’t know what happens after that

[robust grotto]

Ofc, that’s alot of teams doe

We talked about it the other day but right now goalies are like QBs. Either you have one or you don’t

[celest zephyr]

For sure but when it involves signing at the bare minimum two of Matthews, marner and nylander long term then it’s tough

[robust grotto]

Willie needs to go man, fuck

Not even his fault or anything either. He was good last season imo

[celest zephyr]

Yeh. Going to be tough to swallow having to pay up for a goalie

He’s on a great contract. It’s just at this point the money has to come from somewhere

[robust grotto]

That’s how it’s going to be w Trouba for us. Well minus the “he’s on a great contract” bit

[celest zephyr]

Think they have to make a move somewhere

Even if it’s not great, 7 mill for a guy who can score as much as he can is pretty good value. Just wish he wasn’t a turnstile on d

I’d move kerfoot . They can’t afford him after his contract expires

Him and muzzin would be the ideal move

[robust grotto]

I’m surprised they didn’t move Kerfoot at the draft tbh

Muzzin yeah that’s the ideal guy

[celest zephyr]

Same. He should have

Muzzin is a lhd

[robust grotto]

Eventually it’ll happen

OH NO

[celest zephyr]

It’s why holl makes zero sense to move.

[robust grotto]

well my point remains lmfao

Veteran depth ?! I’ll trade my entire draft - some GM

[celest zephyr]

The leafs need rhd and unless they move him and dump a salary also or move them to the minors they can’t get another player of value

Yeah. Hoping they can make a deal with the ducks since Anaheim needs to hit the cap floor

And they don’t really have any obvious moves to do so

[robust grotto]

Hmmm

The problem is that it requires you guys to add sweeteners to make it happen

[celest zephyr]

Picks probably. The leafs don’t have that many prospects they’d be willing to give up with real value

Maybe Robertson, since he still hasn’t really cracked the leafs lineup

[robust grotto]

I think they value Abru more than Robertson

Decent idea tbh

[celest zephyr]

As long as he doesn’t go to the Atlantic division

[dim kettle]

Flame fans knowing the reality of their team next season:

[robust grotto]

It’ll be Saint Louis

[dim kettle]

I can see him going there.

[robust grotto]

Kyrou, young D, first rounder

And more ofc

[dim kettle]

I'm just waiting for the Blues to sign Nazem Kadri to a large contract and the whole city of St Louis explodes in rage.

[robust grotto]

LMAO imagine

[celest zephyr]

Plus tarasenko wants out

If he’s willing to move to Calgary, then blues have to be favourites

Tkachuk is good but idk if he’s good enough that his choice would override the best offer the flames could get

[solid dagger]

Bremer to Juve is official

[celest zephyr]

Flames might not even be that bad

If they full blown tear it down, markstrom is going to bring good value also. Guys like mangiapane, Coleman, Toffoli, lindholm are all solid to good assets

They have a lot of talent. Think they’ll be fine

A fire sale of at least some of their players would bring in a ton of capital

[robust grotto]

If I’m Calgary I’m not asking for tarasenko back

STL will have to flip Tarasenko before trading for Tkachuk. That’ll be something to watch for

[celest zephyr]

It will be. Tkachuk being on the market only really changes the timing

Idk what team Tarasenko’d fit on that’d have the assets to trade for him

He has just one year wow

[robust grotto]

STL may be able to retain some salary to help ease the deal. If they really are front runners for Tkachuk then they’ll be happy to do that, I bet

[celest zephyr]

Maybe I’m crazy but I could see the leafs saying fuck it and swapping taransenko for nylander

[robust grotto]

2nd rounder and depth piece could get it done

Which is crazy

[celest zephyr]

He’s only 30 and nylander only has two years also

Nylander’d possibly ask for too much that the leafs can’t offer him

Idk leafs are interesting. Offering kerfoot, jarnkrok, holl, 2023 3rd might work also

[robust grotto]

For tarasenko ?

But the blues would have to sign Tkachuk so they’ll need to be careful w what they can take on

[celest zephyr]

Yeh

Ah yeah true

Kerfoot is expiring so is holl

Jarnkrok is just a two year deal

So money wise, they could make it work

Idk how leafs end works though

They’d be slightly under, but even just moving abrueeze and mete to their roster would put them over

I guess it’d be ltir muzzin and then re-sign sandin

[short spindle]

Valencia  €400m in debt,can't pay wages for third consecutive summer and will need financing again

[rustic ore]

Question I have is who even remotely considers him at his current contract?

Cleveland is barely paying Watson this year so maybe him to compete with Brissett?

[robust grotto]

The Jets once Wilson gets injured week one

[dim kettle]

-Of pre season

[rustic ore]

Milf Hunter Wilson is invincible what do you mean?

[dim kettle]

The only W coming out of the Jets.

[robust grotto]

https://tenor.com/view/awkward-oh-no-you-didnt-just-saying-gif-16633401

[rustic ore]

Maybe Houston?

Mills would be the smarter option since they’re gonna be ass this year again but there is an NE connection with their GM

[dim kettle]

Mills had some stuff late in the season last year. I think they'll test out the draft class next year if anything

[robust grotto]

^^

[rustic ore]

ATL maybe?

Oh wait no I forgot about their shit cap

That’s a no go

[robust grotto]

Yeah it has to be someone who is already paying for big for certain players and think they’re a bubble playoff team

[dim kettle]

Imagine being shit and having no cap. Atlanta Falcons Football!

[rustic ore]

Giants maybe?

[robust grotto]

no I think they’re similar to HOU where they’d rather draft someone in a year

[rustic ore]

Don’t think they have anyone worth a damn beyond Danny Derps rn

[dim kettle]

Jimmy Giant

[robust grotto]

Unironically the Phins, if Bridgewater wasn’t there

[rustic ore]

Eagles? Know they have Minshew backing up Hurts but Hurts really hasn’t shown much as a QB so far

Would’ve said DC if they hadn’t traded for Wentz

[robust grotto]

Commanders would’ve been a good shout too yeah

Steelers maybe.

[dim kettle]

Saints maybe. If Famous Jameis is well Famous Jameis

[rustic ore]

But they have Dalton for cheap

So I can’t see it

[robust grotto]

Bears if they don’t trust fields

[rustic ore]

Bears would be nuts to do that

[robust grotto]

I’m just trying to think of a team that probably views themselves as a playoff team but really isn’t one

That’s where Jimmy goes

[dim kettle]

I would say the Seahawks, but they probably won't because all their moves have been confusing af

[robust grotto]

Texans and Giants don’t fit that, imo

[rustic ore]

Yeah no shot SF trades within their division

Even though I think Jimmy would easily be their QB #1

[lucid sand]

WHADDUP THOUGH

[rustic ore]

If Carolina hasn’t gotten Baker that would’ve been a decent spot for him

[dim kettle]

IDK why they should be concerned. No way SF should be afraid to get rid of him to a rival. Pats shipped Drew Bledsoe to the Bills and nothing really happened.

[robust grotto]

Actually Seattle could be perfect

Cause they are paying big for players like Adams and Lockett

And I’m sure they don’t think they stink…

[dim kettle]

God, don't you love being in a division where most of the teams are paying for stupid mistakes.

[rustic ore]

It’s so nice after how shit we were for most of the 2010s

And it’s elevated by the fact that ATL and NO wasted HOF QB play in that same period

[dim kettle]

Don't forget Cam and CAR

[rustic ore]

Obviously Brees did get the 1 ring but given their offensive rankings throughout the 2010s they should’ve gone to at least 1 more SB

[dim kettle]

Not a HOF but close enough

[rustic ore]

MVP is nice though

And they also squandered him

[native sonnet]

Baker is better than Jimmy healthy imo. Also Jimmy is way more injury prone than Baker

[rustic ore]

It’s a toss up imo

[robust grotto]

I think Jimmy is a better passer and is overall smarter but Baker is mobile and just has better instincts in the moment

[native sonnet]

I'd say Baker also has more throwing power

[robust grotto]

Probably true actually

[native sonnet]

Baker definitely has an absolute cannon for an arm

[dim kettle]

I think Baker could be the better leader than Jimmy G. But both pretty much play the same role as being a support QB that helps a team that's gameplan is more running game and shorter passing.

[native sonnet]

Also getting Jimmy is probably gonna cost a bit more than Baker purely because Jimmy's stock hasnt been absolutely tanked by the Niners

[dim kettle]

Man, to think the Browns were considering paying Baker if last year's injury didn't effect him as much as it did. I mean, injuries or not, this is the same guy in the divisional round in the 2020 playoffs that Stefanski trusted so much late in the game that he kept running the ball instead of giving the ball to Baker. Yeah, so much for that great confidence in your QB.

[native sonnet]

Tbh I don't think Stefanski is very adept when it comes to planning around the throwing game

[rustic ore]

So realistically what are the top choices? As of now I’d say Cleveland with a couple dark horses that might be interested

Lynch really screwed the pooch not moving him earlier

[dim kettle]

The problem with the Browns is how much they want for Jimmy G here? Browns are limited with the the draft capital at the moment

[robust grotto]

Exactly

I’m not sure the browns have enough to really trade

[rustic ore]

If the reports were accurate that Lynch wanted 2 2s or even a 1 to move him then he’s insane

You’d be lucky to get a day 3 pick while paying a fair amount of his contract this year as is

[dim kettle]

Well Lynch and Shanahan were stupid in letting Jimmy G play last year and waste a year to see if Lance could be the guy or not. Should've traded him last year and yet Kyle kept this outdated philosophy mind set with his young QB and now they're paying the price for it with potentially not getting the returns for Jimmy G

[robust grotto]

Which is another reason why whoever goes for him has to view themselves as being “close”

SF was also 1 quarter away from the SB

[rustic ore]

Honestly I wouldn’t even be surprised if he’s not moved till into the season if a starter gets injured somewhere

He’s an FA at the end of this season right?

[robust grotto]

Idk good question

[dim kettle]

It'll be another reminder that the Niners got too cute with Jimmy G last year. And yes, this is the last year of his contract.

[rustic ore]

He is indeed

Yeah SF is kinda a screwed

You’re gonna have to bite the bullet and have a 27 mil back up QB, cause short of some team being hellaciously desperate no one is gonna give anything worth while for him

[dim kettle]

I wonder in 3-4 years time, will we ask was making the NFC Championship with Jimmy G in 2021 really worth it in the long run?

[robust grotto]

How many rookie QBs have won the super bowl

[dim kettle]

0

[robust grotto]

True, results likely would’ve been the same had they started Lance. Close but not the champs. I don’t think SF did anything wrong personally, but I get the argument. Just burned year of not knowing if Lance is legit BUT they also clearly had / have a top 5 or so roster in the league and figured to go with their veteran guy

The problem for them is that they spent a lot to get Lance

[rustic ore]

I like Lance though, hope he does well this year

[dim kettle]

I ask that question because whether the Niners missed the playoffs with Lance or made the NFC Championship with Jimmy G. It leads to the same result. Not making the SB. There's no 1st round picks for them. The only difference is, with Lance you could see if he could be the long term answer at QB while with Jimmy G starting, you leave the 2021 season with more questions than answers.

[robust grotto]

So at some point they need to give him the chance to justify it was worth it

[dim kettle]

If a lot of the things are true about Shanahan is that he doesn't like a lot of his young talent to get starting reps. Which could lead to more questionable decisions and many things wrong about that kind of philosophy in the modern game. But I'm also not gonna pretend to be a HC for a professional Football team

[robust grotto]

word I think it’s fair criticism at the end of the day

really don't see many options.

[honest umbra]

u think they keep such an expensive backup?

[smoky fable]

Teams have caught on to acquiring middling qbs now

[celest zephyr]

i don't think they have much of a choice really

if no one takes him then well yeah

it might be better than cutting him

though they could be forced to if they need it to be cap compliant

still have to re-sign deebo if he wants to be back

plus who knows if lance is going to flop or not

don't need an expensive backup but a decent one would be nice

I’m curious to see if they would have taken Trey McBride if AZ didn’t take him. They did need a tight end.
