Let’s see what the QB room looks like week 1…assuming Barkley is ready to go.

If Keenum is cut by the Texans, we apparently lose the Edmunds 3rd round pick. We need to either ensure the Texans keep him or we need to trade for him - Joe B says 6th or 7th but he might actually be worth a 4th to us in that scenario. 

 

Do you have a link or reference to that?

 

The Texans have $4M guaranteed reasons to keep Keenum as the canny vet mentor for CJ Stroud. 

 

I agree with those who have said Davis Mills may be the better QB at this point, but that's not the whole of the equation for the Texans.

I'm looking forward to watching Keenum play shortly. Adds to my night a little. I live a very simple life.

Thoroughly speculative studies based upon nebulous data I fabricated prove 3 out of 5 TSWers enjoy the New England Conditional Draft Pick fallacy.  You and sourpuss Limeaid may file protests with the appropriate agencies.

 

 

There'll be at least three protests. This one's like month-old sushi, IMO.

People tend to forget Keenum sucked in all preseason games last year.  Maybe not as many turnovers as K Allen, but he did not impress.  I personally don't want him back.

True fact  ⬆️

Agree as well. But they need to keep that 3rd round comp pick.

Put Case in already!

Simple is good.

That QB for the Saints looks like he should be playing for Buffalo State.

This joke has run its course, like the Patriots franchise post Tom Brady.

I would say these jokes are like Bill Belichick‘s career. If it were not for Tom Brady they would have been over years ago yet even in his absence they still meander along.

Thanks for posting this. Very interesting scoop.

Ohhh Keenum not playing. Probably because we're trading for him. Don't worry little comp pick. Beanes got you.

More likely because his spot is safe.

He didn’t play last week either.

Are you guys suggesting that if WE trade for Keenum and have him on OUR roster until week 6 or so he still qualifies and we keep 3rd round comp pick?

 

That is wild if true.

So, the Texans hold all the leverage here.  They could tell the Bills give us your 4th rounder next year for Keenum or you're going to lose your 3rd.  LOL.

Alex Van Pelt was a true clipboard holder. We need a good one like him.

Do you think the Bills do it for a fourth?

if it actually works like we speculate:

 

our 4th, assuming we pick in the late 20s at best, and a pick after the end of round 3, might (depending on the total number of compensatory 3rds to be used) be one full round of difference. 

 

So then it becomes how much money it would be worth (paying keenum) to upgrade my 4th by one entire round (around 30 picks upgrade, not just 12 or 15).  And a function of what my scouts think might be available in those ranges next year.

 

also, if it works like we speculate, the Texans should be blowin up Beane's phone.   To get a free 4th for somebody i was gonna cut anyway.   And we dont care if the Bills get a 3rd round comp since we arent in the AFCE.

He is right a trade makes no difference. Keenum being cut does potentially (unless the rules have changed and nobody has come up with a comprehensive answer on that).
