None of the below is an absolute, but I figure I’d put together a baseline list to start the 2022 QB movement discussion. Trade options Russell Wilson, Seahawks Deshaun Watson, Texans Aaron Rodgers, Packers Jimmy Garoppolo, 49ers Kirk Cousins, Vikings Retired Tom Brady, Buccaneers Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers Staying put Josh Allen, Bills Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs Justin Herbert, Chargers Zach Wilson, Jets Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars Mac Jones, Patriots Joe Burrow, Bengals Matthew Stafford, Rams Dak Prescott, Cowboys Lamar Jackson, Ravens Derek Carr, Raiders Carson Wentz, Colts (basically locked in money wise) Matt Ryan, Falcons (basically locked in money wise) Unknown/possibly replaced Tua Tagovailoa, Dolphins Daniel Jones, Giants Ryan Tannehill, Titans Justin Fields, Bears Baker Mayfield, Browns Kyler Murray, Cardinals Jalen Hurts, Eagles Taylor Heinicke, Commanders Davis Mills, Texans Sam Darnold, Panthers Taysom Hill, Saints Jared Goff, Lions Teams who will likely have a different starter Pittsburgh Steelers Tampa Bay Buccaneers New Orleans Saints(?) Carolina Panthers Denver Broncos Washington Commanders San Francisco 49ers (on the roster?) Houston Texans (?) Detroit Lions (?)
For your staying out, I would say that the 49'rs have their QB on the bench. It's all or nothing with Trey Lance next year for them. I think the QB carosel is going to start with one of Rodgers, Wilson and less likely watson. those are the QBs that win games on their own. The other guys like Jimmy G will be the secondary market and only bonus payments might force a move more quickly. Sent from my M2007J20CG using Tapatalk
Brand new coach and GM who didn’t draft him. The list isn’t concrete, it’s just a starting point for a discussion. Fixing it now. A bit hungover today lol.
Fields is an orphan at this point. He'll get a long look next season but the new regime is going to go find their QB if he doesn't give them what they are looking for fairly quickly.
Rodgers will stay. Watson to Philly or Carolina. Jimmy G to New England (Yeah I said what I said) Cousins will stay. Wilson will stay.
Big agree with the first two that @NYJFOREVER posted, just not sure of the destination for Watson. Saw a hypothetical trade on the twitter about Kyler + 2022 1st for Watson. Gotta assume the Giants keep DJ and bring in Trubisky to compete for the job. Draft a guy next year if neither work out.
I think Rodgers to Tennessee is real. Aligns with his political beliefs too and offers the best situation in terms of offensive skill players. https://www.si.com/nfl/texans/news/green-bay-packers-trade-aaron-rodgers-move-tennessee-titans-rumor Tannehill has taken them as far as he’s going to and the clock is ticking before Henry hits the RB age induced wall.
The latest report about the Packers doing a Brees type deal and try and go all in for Rodgers this final 2-3 years makes me think he really stays. They gotta know Love isn't the answer. We all know the cap is fake number anyways, look what KC did during their last FA.
I think the Giants will replace Jones in 2023 at the earliest. He's most likely not the answer, but they're in a tough cap situation and their OL is a bigger mess than ours is.
Wilson would be a better fit there IMO. We seen him with a beast of a running back win it all. If I’m Tennessee I’m moving heaven and earth to get Wilson as soon as I can.
I don't think the Titans can make it work because of the cap situation. If Rodgers goes anywhere I could see Denver but in the end I think he will stay at GB.
Is Carr for sure staying put in Vegas? I could see McDaniels with designs on getting his own guy -- I think Tampa will go after Rodgers by the way. What a move that would be, going from Tom Brady to Aaron Rodgers. very ballsy
I think LV would be insane to move on from Carr but honestly they are the Raiders and McDaniels is overhyped as hell; I can see them giving him the reigns to make a move like that.
His best situation is to stay in Green Bay with that top offensive line and a good running game/Adams. But he seems have to inherited the Favre characteristic of wanting to stick it to them.
