Every QB rumor involved with the Seahawks is "I'll believe it when I see it" especially given there was no leaks about the Russ trade until it happened.

Denver wasn’t in the list of teams that Wilson’s agent provided last year as destinations he would be willing to waive his no trade clause for. Then in December of 2021 Jordan Schultz reported that Wilson’s new list included Denver which kicked off a new round of speculation. In February Albright reported that the Broncos were still trying to get Rodgers but would pursue Wilson if Rodgers elected to stay in Green Bay. Wilson was traded a couple of weeks later. It definitely wasn’t out of the blue and it was driven by reporting from credible sources, not just hypothetical “best trade destination” listicles.

At the same time, no one honestly believed that Wilson was actually willing to join the Jets so the legitimacy and seriousness of that list was always a question.

It was the Giants, and hell, who knows. He wants to be “iconic” or whatever, maybe the idea of playing for the less humiliating New York team appeals to him. But either way there were a couple of months of “Wilson to Denver!?“ speculation during the off-season so Wilson actually going to Denver didn’t come out of nowhere. I mean, I don’t think the Seahawks are interested in Jimmy but it wouldn’t point to twitter rumors as evidence that it’s NOT happening based on what went down with Russ.

I think there are 5-6 teams players don't want to be normally, but it's more about record than geography. The Jets/Jags/Bears/Texans aren't drawing star athletes in FA without overpaying because they have loving sucked on the field. The Cardinals tend to have a lot of interest from older FA because of the turf/weather/Keim is drunk and overpays them. Players are going to the Rams en-masse because they're really good not because they're in LA.

Leperflesh posted:I'm stealing this tiered ranking of QBs from some site I've never heard of but I think it's putting Jimmy G too low: I keep remembering Pittsburg got a vet QB but forgetting who it was, then laughing when when I remember it is Trubisky. For that tier list I would remove tier 4 completely, I would bump Cousins to 3 and drop Tanny and Jones to tier 5. I think there is bigger drop off between something like QB14 to QB15 than from QB15 to QB24 or so. At some point you get some ranking compression between QBs that help their team vs hinder their team, and I feel it is around there. Something like: QBs 1-6: Will frequently carry their team to the playoffs QBs 7-14: Will help their team get to the playoffs (Big tier gap) QBs 15-26: Can go to the playoffs with a good team/coaching, but will mostly prevent the team from winning a superbowl. On a bad team they will look bad. QBs 27+: Will prevent the team from making the playoffs.

Gonz posted:*looks at contract numbers* Look deep inside of yourself and ask "Did this cost the Cardinals a super bowl run?" I don't think anyone thinks they're super bowl contenders and almost never do, with good reason. The next question is "do you like watching him play football?" I say yes. He's cool. He runs really fast. He has a cannon. Accuracy is a problem I guess but the Cardinals have been way more interesting with Kyler than without & if he hit the open market, someone was going to pay him that much or more. The QB contracts aren't going to go down.

Kyler is cool and good, but he needs to be cool and good for more than 8-10 games per season. That playoff game last season was positively Ryan Lindley-esque.

Los Angeles Rams' Super Bowl XVI ring "is the most carat weight in the history of a sports championship ring." This ring is really freaking cool. I can't even imagine how much each of them cost.

I know this seems like overkill, but I keep finding out more info about the Rams' SB XVI ring. The detail put into this is pretty phenomenal.

I like to think that everyone's ring has Stafford on it, since they would not be there without him.

It's maybe a little outlandish but not totally out of the realm of possibility that they have this as a way to get out of the contract they can decide to use if he sucks a year or two in and they don't want to eat the remaining guaranteed money.
