2021 Qb status - who will stay, who will go?

[Phicinfan]

So post divisional games....

Aaron Rodgers - will think about what he will do next, and tell team before FA starts
Tom Brady - not sure he will play next year - is taking time to think about it
Kirk Cousins - rumors flying team may make a move with new HC and GM in place
Derek Carr - see above, same thing

Going to be another interesting off season at Qb.

So is Brady retired??? Schefty with more egg on his face???

Every report I hear today is he is going to retire. Sounds like some close to Brady leaked it way too early. But I think he is still planning to retire.

Update - per sources Aaron Rodgers has purchased land to build a house in Franklin, TN.. a Suburb of Nashville, where the Titans play, and supposedly is okay with going to Tenn. if traded.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

AJ Browns value would go through the roof. Aaron smart enough to feed his obviously best receiver

 

[Remote Controller]

Not to mention Henry.

Looks like Sam will get a shot at competing in Indy.
Will SF trade Jimmy G, and would Indy want him?

Indy's first pick in this draft is #59.

Rivera might be the perfect Coach for Wentz.

Actually, if I were Indy, who also got huge cap help by Washington taking all of Wentz' salary, I go to Atlanta and make a deal there for Ryan

Didn't Indy swap 2nds with Washington as part of the Wentz deal?

Yes

Colts first pick is 42

Seems a fair price for Garoppolo

I would rather have Ryan, then Cousins then Garoppolo

Ryan probably isn't an option since the cap hit to Atlanta is astronomical

Plus, Ryan will be 37 when the season starts and not exactly aging like Brady. I would rather have Jimmy at this point

I don't see Minnesota moving Cousins unless they think they can't make a playoff run this year and are going into rebuild mode. Doesn't make sense when you have the offensive weapons they have and the NFC is more wide open than the AFC IMO

 

[Phicinfan]

Well Brady is back, Cousins extended, and Ryan restructured. That leaves Saints and Panthers and Steelers for Watson

I think Seattle is in play assuming Watson would accept a trade there. Just can't believe that old fock, Pete the Cheat will do a rebuild.

 

[Phicinfan]

Forgot Seattle

You know with all these Qb deals, I wonder if we even see a Qb taken in the first round this year. Qb is pretty down, but at 2nd rd value they make more sense.
