Sam Howell traded to Seahawks

[kbso83432]

One has to ask....

Why is Fields still in Chicago???

I guess Peters is the man....would NOT surprise me at all.

Good question.

Money?
Bears bluffing?
They just traded for Allen from the Chargers, so I doubt they still want MHJ.

Fields film must be bad.

I like Sam Howell. He has a high ceiling imo. He was cheated here of truly being able to grow. I wish him well and hope he goes on to have a solid career.

We never got a good reading on Sam, sort of like what Spurrier did to Ramsey. Both suffered shell shock from poor lines and or poor coaching.

Trading for Fields as a 1-year back-up is fine if the Bears will trade him cheaply, (and their trade valuation is unknown). There's no upside or future reward for taking that path. 1st round rookies who don't have their 5th year options picked up don't qualify for the compensatory pick formula. That back-up option has to be weighed up against having a more traditional QB like Garoppolo or Tannehill as a cheap back-up.

Trading for Fields as something more than that is problematic. He has a cheap 1-year deal before he becomes a FA. His 5th year option would cost $25.66M and it would be fully guaranteed. Either way if there wasn't a better QB on the team he could threaten to hold out for starter money. Spotrac has his future Market value at $47.1M and Fields may believe it. Would a $47M QB play for $3.23M? Any team trading a high pick for him has to have a clear plan of action.

You know what Dean.
I am going to do you a favor and leave you alone. Have fun terrorizing the board.

The funny thing is that you now applaud what you fought so hard against. Must be odd seeing Peters rip down what you so faithfully supported.

not terrorizing at all. that is what you are doing.

If the rookie QB isn't ready or the OL situation isn't right they'll put the #2 QB in there as cannon fodder to achieve what he can short-term. Management preferred Mariota as an experienced 'unfavourable situation' QB to putting Howell out there. Mariota doesn't have developmental potential but they don't want that from a #2 when they have a highly prized rookie QB. They want the slightly better immediate performance. Additionally Mariota will be expected to mentor the rookie, and Howell doesn't have the knowledge or experience to do that either. It is what it is. I'm sad to see Howell move on. It's a fail for him and the franchise, but not every prospect succeeds in a tough situation or does so within such a short time frame.

I think the #2 overall pick starts week 1.

 

[deanpet21]

On second thought....

You are correct.

I did butt in...you are correct.
Others do advocate a trade up...you are correct.
It is an opinion board...you are correct.

Long day today...my apologies for being arguementative and badgering you for no reason.

I am dropping from the discussion.

Have a good weekend Dean...you do you.
Be safe
Happy St. Patrick's Day
May you be absolved of all your sins and transgressions.....whatever the statement says.

Peace

thanks for the apology, again. have a good weekend.

I don't pay that chart much attention anymore. Says we could get about 13 or 14 I think.

BREAKING: Commanders Trade Sam Howell to Seahawks

The Washington Commanders have traded quarterback Sam Howell to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for draft picks. We've got live coverage of the breaking news

www.youtube.com

really? wow. I didnt think we can get that high.

 

[deanpet21]

There was a bidding war for Sam according to Schneider of the Seahawks. Said they were sweating.

if there was a bidding war, im surprised a team didn't just offer a 3rd round pick straight. Like the Raiders for example. Gk was right. He said 3rd, but it was a swap with our 4th.

 

[redskinsfan1963]

the only team left for the fields bow I'd the raiders.

 

[justanidiot]

Most Bears fan are out on him it seems.

All I want to hear is lets see if this guy will develop into a franchise quarterback.

Preordaining them draft day eventually has to stop. But these people getting paid to write articles on websites dont really care if they are ever right or wrong, they still get to write articles.

 

[duke1861]

thanks for the apology, again. have a good weekend.

You too brother.

Sorry I was jackass.

You were right. Be safe out there with the st Patrick's day crowd. Eat some green eggs and ham!

 

[kbso83432]

really? wow. I didnt think we can get that high.

I don't either. 36 and 40 probably gets us 22 imo

Agreed and why wouldn't he.

What is the value of what the Skins got for Howell? Does that equate to a late 3rd/early-4th or, depending on the value chart you use, is it more of a 5th?

I've heard early 4th.

 

[skinsdad62]

so you are ok with 2 rookie OT's starters and a rookie QB? Do I have this right?

i am ok with keeping draft picks and keeping talent flowing in . if a OT is a rookie and better then what we have now then yes
