Trade offers for Jacoby
Interesting. I'm happy that Ballard turned these offers down. We need the depth at QB.

I agree. In the overall scheme of things, having him as QB2 is pretty darn nice.
However, I would have loved to know what folks were offering. If it were a 2nd round pick, I am not so sure that I would not have taken it and then used our 4th or 5th round pick on backup QB. But, my guess is that we will not know. Walk Worthy, |
Better to keep him. With better coaching he should be a top backup
|
Trading him in front of the draft would also hurt our chances of success with trades on draft day. Let the desperate teams stay desperate until we draft or trade the pick.

Would not trade him
As a full year starter he is iffy, but as a back up I think he is solid and can fill in well. |
Can't trade him til Luck is fully back. And I'd rather just have a good backup QB. If Foles ever gets traded, I'd base Brisset's value on that.
|
I think in a year or two his value will max. But I like Brisset more than a lot of guys in this draft. With a better line and system I think he could do well.
|
If Luck is back healthy next year, you trade him next offseason before he starts to get more expensive.

I am glad Ballard is not willing to quickly trade off Brisset. Unfortunately, Luck has been injured often, we need a quality back up to be able to relieve him if he needs to sit out a few games. Brissett is worth more than the 4th or lower picks I suspect teams offered.
|
Unless there is MAJOR o-line improvement this year, we need to ADD QBs
Luck will not last 5 games as is |

Sort of an backhand slap at the o-line players on the roster. |

Anyone want to change their mind on jacoby if San Fran comes calling?

That’s why I can never call Brady the goat. Always had a line, always had a D. First three SB’s were won by his kicker. Should have lost to the Seahawks, should have lost to the falcons. But that comeback against the Falcons I give major props for. However it only happens bc their D shut down the Falcons O. Brady goes down, and they go to the playoffs with Cassel. Manning goes down and the Colts are the worst team in the league. |

o When Peyton Manning missed the entire 2011 season due to injury, the Colts lost their first 13 games of the season, and went 2-14 overall. When Tom Brady missed the entire 2008 season, the Patriots went 11-5 with Matt Cassel at quarterback, and only missed the postseason because of a tiebreaker. In fact, they were only the second team ever to go 11-5 and miss the postseason (the 1985 Denver Broncos being the other) since the inaugural 16-game schedule season in 1978. Terry Bradshaw was a very good quarterback, and he excelled in the postseason (particularly in bad-weather games.) And I believe that he is rightfully a member of the Hall-of-Fame. However, his being 4-0 in the Super Bowl as a starting quarterback (including two Super Bowl MVP awards) does not necessarily mean that he was a better quarterback than was Dan Marino, whose team was blown out by the 49ers by a score of 38-16 in the only Super Bowl that he ever reached. Yes, Brady has made it to 8 Super Bowls, winning 5 of them. That doesn't necessarily make him a better quarterback than Peyton Manning, any more than Terry Bradshaw's 2 Super Bowl MVP's and 4 Super Bowl titles necessarily make him a better quarterback than Dan Marino. Bart Stahr won 5 world championships as a starting quarterback also, but I don't think that that necessarily means that he was a better quarterback than John Elway, Johnny Unitas, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, or Roger Staubach all were, either. o |

If you use SB wins that is fine. Then Brady is your goat. But I don’t like simplistic measurements like that. I think the pats have made many average QBs look good in that system. Brady is accurate and reads D’s well, but he folds under pressure. Manning is the only QB to win SBs with two different teams. But that is simplistic as well. I do know you put a defense with manning and he will get you SB wins. Would Belicheat and Brady be the same without each other? Anyway, the game was different in the 70’s. I kind of consider Walsh and Montana as the start of the modern era. But even 80’s 90’s football was very different than today. Salary cap, parity, pass offenses and rules, WRs and their gloves with PI rules. It’s so different. Of that era I would probably go Elway, Montana, Marino. But as a pure passer, hard to go against Marino. |

As a side note.....3 games into the season and it looks like Dorset still isn't living up to his high draft pick. We definitely got the better end of that trade. |
