That's bad juju right there.

TheChirurgeon posted:The problem is that history doesn't validate this--teams that trade up to get a QB haven't been successful historically. This just feels like a sample size problem. I don't see how trading up to get a QB can somehow be intrinsically bad. Trading up for another position, like WR or DE is fine, but not a QB? It doesn't past the smell test.

The flip side is that quarterback is a much more important position than any other on the roster. And if your organization can successfully identify a franchise quarterback it is worth sacrificing in the short term for the long term gain of having that player. That fact that it's only worked out once or twice - with few teams even trying - is incidental and speaks more to the difficulty in finding a worthy quarterback.

Excluding Goff and Wentz - it's too early for any conclusions - there have been FIVE trade ups for QB's in the last two decade. Five! 2012, RG3 - RG3 was ruined by injuries, his own ego and a feud between the coach and owner. Had he continued on the trajectory set by his rookie season Washington would have been thrilled with what they gave up. 2011, Gabbart - Just an awful player. Obviously not helped by his supporting cast, but I don't think one 2nd round pick would have saved Blaine loving Gabbert's career. 2009, Sanchez - Considering the talent on that roster when he was drafted, and the way they dragged his butt to multiple playoff appearances you cannot blame his failure on missing pieces. 2001, Vick - Sure Vick needs weapons. He also needs to take being a quarterback seriously and not murder dogs. 1998, Leaf - Insane person. It's absurd to draw any conclusions from those five guys, who success or failure were affected by a variety of factors far beyond what their teams gave up to get them.

New England did some weird poo poo to ensure Blunt would count in the compensatory system if he signs somewhere else before July 22nd. And after that date he can only sign with New England. quote:For any teams that made a tender offer to any of its unrestricted free agents before May 9, the team secures two key rights, per a league source with knowledge of the situation.
