I wonder if Gruden would dump Carr and bring in Tom Brady

LOL, your last sentence has to be sarcasm.

Brees was not a needle in a haystack. All Wilson has done is win. Did that in college too.

You can find talented leaders past the first 15 picks. What was the knock on Brees and Wilson? Too short.

Half of the Colts fans wanted Leaf instead of Manning. Why? He was the better athlete. His 10 cent head is what held him back.

They need a smart guy who can react quickly to defensive reads and has a better than average arm with great accuracy.

The most successful QBs have brains as well as athletic ability. Why has Fitzpatrick hung around all these years? Smart enough to read defenses and make plays.

And yes, the Tribisky comment was sarcasm. All american athlete, 5 and dime head

The biggest difference I saw between Eason and Burrow was the quality of talent surrounding them.

There isn't a large body of work for him. Supposedly he progressed very well at Georgia under their OC, but still got beat out by Fromm. He fits the eye test and the arm strength. I read a rumor that he had still not learned the whole playbook at Washington, but that was a rumor and could be completely false. If he isn't smart enough it will come out in the interviews and tests. Frankly as a fan its hard to evaluate the QB's because we are missing the most important part which is the interview.

If he couldn’t beat Fromm I have little faith in him. Fromm is not that good.

Am I retarded for thinking we should consider Rivers?

No way do I want Rivers on the Colts. He's done, stick a fork in him.

I think he is done. He struggled mightily this year.

Completely agree, but even if he had a little left I’m just not sure I could cheer for that guy. He has one of the most punchable faces I’ve ever seen. I’m sure the Colts struggles against SD don’t help, but fuck that guy. I’d rather have another year of Brissett than cheer for Rivers.

no rivers. I would be open to carr if he is available without trading any assets.

o

It's not at all retarded, but I think that it would be too risky ........ I wouldn't be surprised if Rivers had a couple of 4,000-or-more-yard/30-or-more TD pass seasons left in him, but I also wouldn't be surprised if he was done. Hence, I would rather go with either a high draft pick out of college and/or another proven commodity whom is at least 4 or 5 years younger than Rivers if we aren't going to simply ride out Jacoby Brissett for one final year.

Eason didn't get beat out by Fromm, really. He suffered a knee injury, then Georgia was winning with Fromm so they never went back to him. I've also heard the rumors about his work ethic, and if they're true, Ballard likely won't draft him, but the pure talent comes through on the tape.

Joe Burrow couldn't beat out a guy who went on to play WR in the NFL at Ohio State, but the Bengals are probably going to draft him.

I'd rather roll with Brisket than bring that asshole Rivers in.
