Meant for Carr thread sorry
It's not really a matter of taking sides as much as pointing out how screwed up the current system is.
So your average NFL QB had one good year and your team made great strides reaching the Super Bowl!
Fantastic!
Now you have to sign him for 50 million and dismantle half your roster! ?
You don't see anything fundamentally wrong with that?
I see it as fluidity which creates opportunity
Others are free to complain I suppose but we got enough victims out there, don’t think we need to add NFL teams to the list
Just be smart and trade him if he’s not that good and can be replaced. If team A does something stupid then teams B, C, D gain.
Once you start talking $$, that is where you lose fans... These salaries are a joke....
That will be one of my all time best sports moments.... when we meat a breaking point. Now, hey lets pay a 17 tear old 2 million a year because he may be good but probably won't be. This NIL will end up as a disaster.

I think I just caught on that you are a Colts fan right?
Where does Brees rank on your all time list
This is why I laugh at GM's who are always defending themslves acting like picking a qb at the top of the draft is like 50%...
No, it isn't... All of those guys had exactly the same qualities.
Where they screw up is pretending there are 3-5 of those guys every single draft... Bide your time, talk to the owner, have a draft plan for 3-5 years.... Not in just 2 months.

I remember the chargers gm after they took Leaf.
" well we needed a qb"
Good God, 95% of the teams in the draft need a qb.... What a horrible reason for taking the guy #2 overall. And you would think pre draft there would be obvious red flags... Even Leaf has admitted the obvious red flags in his life.
By the way, I admire Leaf for his post NFL career... Even he said he was a train wreck

Do you want them to trade with Chicago for #1 pick?
So you like the idea of them staying at number four?
Are you hoping they take the kid from Kentucky or another position?
If I had it my way, trade back to 9-12 and take a left tackle.... Get a 3rd this year and 1st next year. See Drake Maye and his development and then potentially do it next year.
Play Ehlinger all year... Let him know now... He is the guy.. Give him a full calendar year to throw with receivers, etc... Then this time next year you know exactly what you have.
Let these other dumbass teams " win the draft" before the season is kicked off and take a CJ Stroud.
Leaf was almost as big a prospect as Manning and Pol
in the chargers defense Leaf was a huge prospect . Some people had him over manning . Even polian himself said taking manning over leaf was not a total slam dunk at the time
