    Alotta cake for sure. It really is amazing how much QBs are paid these days. Regardless of what they say publicly while trying to play hardball in negotiations, teams are basically forced to pay huge dollars to keep a proven QB if they have one. Because if they don't, they'll be forced to pay slightly less huge dollars for a total crapshoot at the position.

    The top 12 highest paid QBs in the league currently include the likes of:

    Jared Goff,
    Kirk Cousins,
    Carson Wentz,
    Ryan Tannehill,
    Jacoby Brissett, and
    Jimmy Garoppolo

    Now some of those guys have shown more than others, but not a single one is on a deal averaging under $27.5 million/year. Rhetorical question, but tell me which one you feel completely comfortable with if you're the Owner/GM/Coach?

    Lots of "rumors" floating around about the Niners making a deal for Sam Darnold from the Jets for a 2nd round pick??? Then more rumors about JimmyG headed back to NE. Stephon Gilmore is the rumored piece going to the Niners for Garappolo.

    Let's see how that one plays out.

    Yeah that’s pretty crazy. All of those guys are relatively solid but they do all come with question marks.

    Love the idea of Jimmy G back in New England. But really hate the idea of Gilmore going anywhere. Been reading a lot of rumors about them moving him though.

    I think Wentz issues are from getting hit, and losing his footwork. He does not have good mechanics anymore and teams don't change their QBs mechanics much mid-season, no idea why. But Wentz just needs to re-work his footwork and he'll be fine. He has the talent, just needs to re-learn. Not hard to say, but very hard to do sometimes.

    I think he works out. Indy is a strong team, they'll do everything to help him out.

    Man, I was kind of hoping Robinson would hit the market. But now I just hope the Bears get a QB for him to play with. The guy has put up some numbers and played at a high level in his career catching passes from Bortles, Trubisky, Foles ... eek. Would love to see what he could do with high-end or even consistently competent QB play.

    My guess is the Bears tagged him because they need pieces to entice a QB to come there.

    Fitzmagic to Washington. He apparently went there over the Bears because he has a better chance at starting with the Football Team.

    Lovin it! Particularly stoked about the Jonnu Smith signing. I don't even mind that they brought Cam back as I think he can do better if he has better weapons this year.

    Still would love to see them bring Van Noy back too though
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Still no QB though. But definitely major progress.

    Agholor is a waste of money for the Patriots. The last type of WR an inaccurate Newton needs is a WR with bad hands.
