stevegrab Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Take it all with a huge grain of salt. All these NFL experts need to talk fill time talking about stuff, and what might happen to Brady is a story that draws eyeballs. But its mostly just somebody spreading a rumor they heard elsewhere, some source that could be the janitor at team HQ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kinda why we're here, correct? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I'm reading now (including in Huddle News sourced from Ian Rappaport) that Brady and the Pats are waiting for some things with the CBA to shake out before the have any serious talks. No doubt his team will listen to any legit offers (in 2+ weeks when teams can start talking to free agents), but that doesn't mean he won't be an option for the Pats, or that the Pats have moved on from him. But I get it, just discussing that he is likely to stay with the Pats is boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look either way...noted steve. Trying to point out there is much more discussion to farm out there than Brady Stays. Just check the lines in Vegas. They think he stays too. Yawn.

League_Champion Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I wouldn't be shocked if the Redskins are in the market for a QB as well. Haskins is far from ready. The draft might throw a monkey wrench in it as well. QBs are grading surprisingly well at the combine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They kinda have to, Dak has them by the nads. He's not good enough to paid like a top 5 QB and he's not bad enough to let walk.

He's not good enough to paid like a top 5 QB and he's not bad enough to let walk. He's gonna get his. I feel like guys like he and Kirk are the absolute worst guys to have. Unlikely to win anything but get paid like studs. Id rather have a scrub and build a team around him if I had to choose. Plus it keeps you from looking for your next QB which you will get on the cheap if you draft, and your draft position isn't high enough to get the top guy. That may not matter if you are fortunate to draft a Mahomes or Russ Wilson but that's not typical. Sorry if that pisses off Cowboy fans and it's an uninformed internet opinion but that's how I feel. The return on rookie QBs is just so huge compared to what veterans are paid. Mahomes is worth 10x what he is paid.

I honestly never thought they'd go with McCarthy(sp?). Yes Jones hiring McCarthy was a a bit of a shock, I would have loved for the Browns to get McCarthy, hopefully Stefanski works out. An interesting article I'm reading on Brady. Basically it says that Tom and Bill need to meet and see if their goals mesh, if so getting a contract worked out with the Pats won't be complicated. Until that happens all the speculation of where he goes is a bit pointless. I don't doubt he'll test free agency, but I question the way some reports state he is "prepared to play elsewhere", as if he has closed the door on the Pats and won't even be talking to them. Mostly because "nothing has happened yet" and "sources close to Tom tell us....". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Tom Brady needs a great pass protecting offensive line a wide receiver that can open up the field a team that is going to win now who does that leave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think not not having a franchise QB currently is another factor in teams that will fit. Not buying that he'd go to SF and they'd ship Jimmy G back to the Pats. Dallas is the first team that comes to mind, I wouldn't include them if Dak was under contract, but the impasse there could be a factor. And Jimmy would sure love to make a splash, screwing Kraft over is a bonus. That assumes they can keep Amari Cooper. Zeke would take the pressure off TB. TEN is more a run blocking OL. Maybe IND is a fit (Brissett still working on a deal). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
