    Passing on Watson was a big, big mistake. 

     

    In a vacuum - I agree.

     

    However...

     

    We didn't have Beane in place yet. We were running that Draft on a GM and scouts that were not going to be there the following year. 

     

    As such, I can understand McDermott not wanting Whaley and company picking the next Franchise QB.

    I think we'll get a good idea in the next few days, when we see what kind of QB we sign.  If we sign McCarron or better, then I bet we stay put.  Who knows.  There are no leaks.

     

    I like McCarron for that very reason. He's last year's Mike Glennon. If we sign Josh McCown or Matt Moore (or nobody) - the league's going to know we're all in on one of the top guys in the Draft. 

     

    But with McCarron, there's legitimate reason to believe he might be the guy (like people thought with Glennon). But I don't think signing him precludes us from moving up.

     

    And if our trading partners think it's possible we could back away from the table at any point, it makes negotiations easier. If they know we absolutely HAVE to get Darnold/Rosen/Mayfield/Allen - it puts us at a disadvantage.

    The Eagles keep Foles

    Cousins to the Vikings

    Jets overpay for Keenum

    Arizona signs Teddy Bridgewater

    Bradford to Denver

    McCarron to the Dolphins

    Bills sign Mike Glennon

     

    With the first overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns select Saquon Barkley, RB, Penn State

    With the second pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the New York Giants select QB, Sam Darnold, from Southern California

     

    The Indianapolis Colts trade the third overall pick to the Cleveland Browns for the fourth overall pick and the last pick in the second round, #64)

    With the third pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns select QB from UCLA, Josh Rosen

     

    With the fifth pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos select QB Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma

     

    Phones start ringing off the hook as Buffalo and Arizona both try to move into the top 10.  In the end, Arizona makes the sweeter deal to move up and select Josh Allen

     

    With the seventeenth pick, the Los Angeles Chargers select Lamar Jackson, QB Louisville

     

    With the twenty seventh pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints select Oklahoma St QB Mason Rudolph

     

    With the eleventh pick in the second round, #43 overall, the New England Patriots select Luke Falk, QB Washington St

     

    You're a terrible human being.

    Strong call. Pretty sure Posey was the guy I had in the back of my mind but couldn't remember.

     

    I think the legal tampering period is a farce that the NFL created in attempt to save face over signings at one minute past midnight. I don't think it changed a thing but honestly I could care less either way.

     

     

    I just remember thinking - Jeff Posey? You have to make a point to strike right at 12:00 on the dot for Jeff Posey?

    It 100% makes sense for the bills of they get him at a reasonable price,but I wouldn't be surprised if EJ cashed on on a nice payday. 

     

    And that's why it doesn't make sense to me. They aren't going to get him at a reasonable price. That's just a fact. 

  6. The thing I like about McCarron is that he's like last years Glennon. If we sign McCown or Matt Moore or something - everyone knows we're going to be taking a QB and probably high.

     

    But with McCarron - there's that bit of unknown. Other teams will wonder - "Is he their guy or are they drafting someone?". 

     

    Provides a fraction of leverage if teams think it's a possibility you could walk away from the table and stand pat with what you have.

  7. I'm not reading much into it. Him re-signing just doesn't make sense to me for any party involved. Neither he nor Vontae Davis would sign up to be the third outside Corner off the bench or the Nickel. And paying either guy what it would take to get them just to have depth is a waste of resources that should be allocated elsewhere IMO.

  8. I'm with it until the Ragnow part. 

     

    Ryan Groy played really well at Center in 2016, when asked to fill in for Eric Wood. He played good enough that another team tried to sign him as an RFA and we matched the contract.

     

    In my opinion, we already have our Eric Wood replacement. I wouldn't draft another Center until Round 4 or 5. I'd spend that 2nd elsewhere.

  9. If they can get anything for him, yes, he's gone. The only question is whether anyone wants to trade an asset for his contract. I'd expect a 4th or a 5th based on injury history and the team picking up his expensive deal. Kinda like the Dareus deal.
