Stafford would probably be the cheapest to acquire.....the Colts are very interested in him.

it will certainly interesting what teams are willing to give up for these 3 but doubt anything gets done till after the salary cap is decided

Probably right.

Watson will bring back the most IMO since he's still in his prime and has another 8-10 years left.

Yes. Maybe. Yes.

The team trading for Rodgers would also inherit a nice contract. Once the prorated bonus money is removed from the salary cap, Rodgers is quite affordable. In 2021, Rodgers would earn just $22.72 million. In 2022 and 2023, that number would rise to just $25.5 million per year. With none of that money guaranteed, the team trading for Rodgers would assume nearly zero risk. They could cut Rodgers at any point, with no dead money remaining on the cap

The deal would cost the 49ers at least three first round picks and probably six picks total, not to mention all the money Watson would cost the 49ers. He signed a four-year, $160 million extension in September. He's extremely expensive.

But that extension technically does not kick in until 2022. Meaning Watson technically won't earn much cash in 2021 by NFL superstar quarterback standards. So if the 49ers were to trade for him, they'd have to pay him "only" $10.94 million in 2021, or roughly 6 percent of their salary cap space.
I would cut Jimmy Garoppolo and create $24 million in cap space. Then I would trade whatever it takes to get Watson so I could pay him $10.94 million next season. And with the money I saved, I would improve the offensive line. And maybe the 49ers would win the Super Bowl. They'd had a terrific chance.

And then in 2022, when Watson would be scheduled to make a whopping $35 million and take up more than 15 percent of the 49ers cap space, I would trade him and recoup all the draft capital I gave up to get him.

Watson would be a one-year rental.

stafford costs 33 mil next year and 26 mil next plus maybe a 1st rounder

Yep. Apparently, A-Rod wants a new deal.....LOL.

Sorry, the rams and Cards are NFC and have always been.

Seattle was in the AFC and Pittsburgh was switched from the NFL to the AFC as was Baltimore, both in 1970 when the leagues merged.

Typo, meant both are NFC when the topic was winning in two conferences.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Watson, Stafford, Rodgers....you guys interested?

Watson, no.
Stafford, yes.
Rodgers, yes...ish. But I don't think the value would meet the demand.

No, No, No

Jimmy G is on the way home.

Did Craig Morton play in the game for Dallas? And both the Rams and zona are AFC.

Baltimore was in Cleveland when the league merged.

Baltimore was never in Cleveland. In 1995 the Cleveland franchise was paused and a new franchise was created in Baltimore. The new franchise was owned by former Cleveland owner, and substantially all assets were transferred from Cleveland to Baltimore, but the Cleveland franchise did not move. Several years later the Cleveland franchise was resumed with a new owner.

The current Indianapolis franchise was in Baltimore during the 1970 merger and moved to the AFC.

OK, if stating clear facts, regardless of how the facts became makes me "Attorney Worthey" then so be it, but the 1970 Baltimore Colts were never in Cleveland.

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Wow.
You ladies made that one tough to follow.

So...Baltimore was never in Cleveland, but Cleveland is now in Baltimore, but only after Indianapolis left both Baltimore and the NFC, while Cleveland never was in the the NFC...right?

The Baltimore Colts became the Indianapolis Colts.

The Browns never left Cleveland but Art Modell moved the physical team to Baltimore along with all of the assets.

The Cleveland Browns relocation controversy was the decision by then Browns owner Art Modell to move the National Football League team from its longtime home of Cleveland, Ohio to Baltimore, Maryland for the 1996 NFL season. Subsequent legal actions saw a unique compromise that would later set a precedent in professional sports: Modell would be able to keep the Browns' existing player and staff contracts, but his team officially would be an entirely new franchise in Baltimore, later named the Baltimore Ravens. Meanwhile, the Browns' name, history, and archives would stay in Cleveland, and a new Browns team would begin play in 1999 after a three-year period of "deactivation".

Rumors swirling that Atlanta and SF are in talks about a trade for Matt Ryan. Falcons likely wouldn't pull the trigger til after 6/1 when Ryan's cap hit goes from 44M next year to 18M if traded. Thats also a big plus for SF as the trade wouldn't cost them anything til 2022
