@ryan Who's your QB next year - presumably there not on your roster yet?

[Ryan]

Wow the Hawks trade is decent, they've given up so much to get Russ

jusrt read minishew or hurts could be behind Jimmy in the running if watson doesnt go

Hurts is the starter at Philadelphia he's not going anywhere

@simji Depends on his legal situation supposed to be some sort of ruling soon.

Even if not on trial cant see him not having a ban from the NFL but we'll see I'd forgotten about him

[Simji]

watch Deshaun watson turn up in Seattle... I know in the past they have been looking but never would but would they go for Kapernick

This years draft is dreadful at QB

There are a few current backups that could do a job for a year who are free agents - Mariotta would be who I'd go for or Winston if he recovers from his ACL in time. Bridgewater or Trubisky could be options also.

Another possibility would be use some of the capital they have just received to trade for Garropolo who is finished at 49ers but needs a shoulder op.

Jordon Love is now expendable at the PAckers but he is unproven

[Simji]

not sure what QB could move this year for the seahawks unless they will be trying to build around one out of the draft but i not sure if this year is a strong enough draft.. will have to look at it in more depth.

trying to think about a QB in prime only two players that i could think of kurt warner but wasnt really prime. Brett favre

[Simji]

fant could be a big loss but probably need to have some weight to the trade

[Martin]

@chris-osborne for me it’s 100% worth it, draft picks are but a lottery we had three 1st round picks 2 seasons ago, none of them lived up to their hype at all yet.

[A Former User]

@Martin not sure its worth it from what you have to give up - Seahawks got 2 1st round draft picks as part of the deal as well as the players.

What do Seahawks do at Qb, go for someone like Mariotta for a year as a stop gap then hope next year's QB draft class is better than this years?

[Martin]

@simji has a hall of fame QB ever been traded in their prime?

@simji said in NFL Strategies:

cant believe it finally a great QB at broncos

With Sutton and Jeudy got some decent WR's as well not sure including Fant as part of the trade makes any sense but they may not have had a choice.

@chris-osborne omfg that is huge! Dark day for Seahawks fans @Ryan

[A Former User]

First two big moves of the offseason today

Rodgers signs four year extension at Green Bay
Russell Wilson era in Seattle over, he's traded to the Broncos - for three players and Draft Picks Players include Noah Fant - also Drew Lock but he wont make the roster QB's in AFC West are now ridiculous - Herbert, Mahomes, Wilson and Carr, the first three anyway

[A Former User]

@martin true and agree but Chargers being Chargers they'll find a way to mess it up somehow

[Martin]

@chris-osborne watch out for Herbert, if Chargers build him a team he will be scary!

[A Former User]

@martin Sounds like a decent game, and I agree abot the outcome. I fell asleep just before HT so will have to watch the 2nd half at some point.

If they can use Free Agency and the draft to strengthen there O Line this offseason then there could be no stoping the Bengals over the next few years especially as everyone else in there division is rebuilding with the possible exception of the Ravens

[Martin]

@simji went how we expected really, close Rams win some value in Bengals and could have made a nice profit on them in play.
