That has to be weird for the Vikings. They were in the NFCCG and yet all 3 of the QBs on their roster are FAs.

It'll be interesting to see what kind of deal Bridgewater can land. I can't see a team committing a lot of money to him long term until they see if he can still play. Maybe he is Minny's backup plan in case they lose out on Cousins?

I would also take Alex Smith over Keenum and Bridgewater.

MIA is in cap hell and probably not going anywhere next postseason with their bloated roster.

I would look to shed Tannehill's salary and bring home Teddy (on a cheap deal for 2 yrs) and find a cheapish backup in case Bridgewater blows a casket.

I mean sure...but my point is that out of those 4 QBs he's clearly the worst one for them to pursue.

I understand what you meant, it's just a matter of fact that teams do stupid stuff all of the time. Personally, I believe that he'll be unavailable because Philly will want to hold on to him until such time that the health of Wentz is determined. That said, he won't be a happy camper knowing that this is the absolute best time to cash in on the shiny new SB MVP trophy that he just won.

that statement right there makes you insane. You take a one year wonder and compare him to Alex Smith. What hate you have. It so obvious.
well alex smith was a one year wonder with last year being the outlier

Well, to be fair he isn’t an option... yet. If a deal fails to transpire with KC, I would imagine the Vikes will resign at least 1 of the 3, my $$$ would be on Bridgewater.

And if Teddy hits FA, no guarantee he will sign with Washington, assuming we were even interested. Have to consider he is also risky proposition despite his upside. But there would be other teams interested in TB as well.

The FO took the safe road to bridge the team into the next young QB. A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush.
the FO panicked and jumped the gun

Agreed. And lost a very promising CB and a 3rd rd pk in the process. Yay Bruce!
and peters was around yet we made no attempt to get him included which would have made this trade completely different in my eyes

Yes it would be shocking. Griffin is not going to be a Redskin ever again.


Shouldnt be, I agree.

But really I put almost nothing past Mutt and Jeff at the moment.

I'm not a Peters fan, but yes, that would've made the trade a different animal. As it stands now. It looks like Reid proposed a trade to get Smith and what it would take and Allen simply jumped on it. W/O giving any thought to how to make it a better deal for the Skins.

Read a report that 28 teams said they weren’t interested in Peters. But I agree, a straight up trade would have made sense.

Miami should know by now that Tannehill was a mistake. If they don't admit it soon, it'll cost Gase his job.

Easy my friend, there were posters here wanting our team to get him back in 2012. Yeah, he would have been cheaper to get than the guy, well actually both guys that we did get, but, it does look like the results would have been the same or similar long term.

I will disagree for one reason and one reason only.

Had they gone with Tannehill, thats three other prime talents they would have had the ability to add. Granted there are no guarantees. But the decision was made that they guy they did take was worth 4 players ultimately. So even if they whiffed on the #6 pick with Tannehill that would have still left three players in the top 100 over the three drafts..... as clueless as Bruce is... even a blind monkey can hit a wall if he throws enough shit in the general direction.

Wrong ALex smith has proven that he can win over multiple seasons.
with a team built around him , take a piece away and he falls down . example last playoff game . i was told by you and others in the SDFC that i would get a guy who could "carry a team " CDC is not that guy .
