Broncoman 2021 Mock Draft 20.0 - Getting our QB By Broncoman on Feb 22, 2021, 2:36pm MST +
So let me start with the following, it appears that we will not have a shot at any of the top 4 QBs projected 1st round draft picks, but I don t think it matters. I think the obvious option is as follows, if the Jets do or don t get DeShaun Watson, our goal should be to trade for Sam Darnold. I understand that might not be the most exciting idea, but it s actually a decent option. I think we offer the Jets a conditional 2022 2nd round pick to 4th round pick depending upon how many games he starts in 2021. While Darnold is considered a reclamation project, it was rumored that Denver was extremely high on Darnold when he came out. A potential change of scenery and getting better coaching my be the best thing for him. Darnold is younger than Joe Burrows, so thinking he is a finished product is far from the truth. I think we let Darnold battle it our with Lock for the startin
The expensive QB.. Franchise maker or Franchise breaker ? By tinley24 on Feb 12, 2021, 4:05pm EST +
Howdy folks.. been a long time.
As i sat and watched the Jets overpay for the likes of Bell and CJ, it got me thinking about the Cap teams spend on the QB position and what teams making the SB since the 2011 new rookie pay scale, spend on average to reach it.
There is no denying that the 2011 had a huge impact that all could see. The 1st overall pick went from being one of the highest players in the league, without playing a snap, to not even in the Top-20 highest paid QB s. If you drafted a bum back then you were screwed until you could effectively cut him from a Cap perspective, putting your Franchise back another 5 or 6 years. Nowadays, there isn t as big of a kick in the stones, should you end up with a Darnold instead of a Mahomes. But what interested me was how much more teams with QB s on rookie deals had to spend on adding talent and was that making any type o
What is a Window and How Does it Close?

The term “window” has become ubiquitous in sports reporting and commentary. It is often used to determine a team’s course of action. The term window is especially relevant in baseball, where the differences in payrolls are astounding, as is the range in pay for players based on experience (imagine Zion Williamson or Joe Burrows making league minimum). Closer to home, several posters and commenters have talked about the closing of the window as something inevitable. I’m here to challenge that by definition, and then by question.

Add another name to the list of Jets head-coaching candidates. The team announced on Saturday that it has completed an interview with Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady.
Brady, 31, made a name for himself in 2019 when he served as LSU’s passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach, helping guide quarterback Joe Burrows, wideout Justin Jefferson, and the Tigers to a record-breaking offensive campaign. That coaching performance led to him becoming a popular name among NFL teams, and he was ultimately hired as the Panthers offensive coordinator last January.
Despite inconsistent quarterback play from Teddy Bridgewater and only three appearances from star running back Christian McCaffrey, Brady still earned praise during his first year in Carolina. Four offensive players ultimately eclipsed 1,000 yards during the 2020 campaign (D.J. Moore, Ro
