What does it mean? Hell if I know. But Palmer is the straw that stirs the Cardinals drink. If he leaves that team, the NFC West may become the weakest division in football.

Well, if Arizona picks up one of them, then we can re-evaluate. But what I am hearing is that they are contemplating drafting DeShone Kizer.I can name 6 available quarterbacks >>>> Palmer
You think they'll find a trade partner to take on that salary??I doubt the Cowboys release Romo.

At this point, Dallas may not have much choice. They're currently $13 million over the cap. Even if they get rid of Romo, they would also have to seriously consider getting rid of Sean Lee, Jason Witten and Doug Free as well - just to give them room to manuever in the draft - let alone free agency. Even then, they'd only have $10 million in space to work with.

I just looked it up. They save $14 million post-June 1st so I guess they could cut him then.
Yeah, not cutting him means they're paying (cap hit) their backup $24M. In real dollars, $14M I think.I just looked it up. They save $14 million post-June 1st so I guess they could cut him then.

To me the most likely is he gets released. The 2017 salary isn't that bad for a "good" starting QB, but the final 2 years are an avg of $20M/yr when he is 37 & 38.
The line of thinking makes some sense, but I don't know about the teams. if you're Cle or SF, why rent a $14M QB for one year when you aren't 1 player away from contending? That's in addition to the pick(s) it takes to trade. If you're 1 of the 2 worst teams in the league, get a fair priced journeyman for a year or 2 while you're trying to find your long term guy in the draft.That's why I said Cleveland or SF. Since cutting Romo after receiving him in trade gives no dead money - either team could still draft a QB in the first or second round and then let him sit for a year while still not paying Romo his last 2 seasons of his contract.

Exact reason I see Romo going to a team like Denver or AZ.The line of thinking makes some sense, but I don't know about the teams. if you're Cle or SF, why rent a $14M QB for one year when you aren't 1 player away from contending?

DeShaun Watson?I think they need to move up then...whether DeShaun Jackson stay outside of the top 15 or not, it looks now like SF is going QB @ 2...Kizer or Tribusky I assume...CHI most likely will follow suit and take the other guy. Word is the Jets like Hackenberg and may pass on a QB early, but not sure about BUF.
It's possible 3 QBs come off the board by the 10th pick.
