Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
Yet even with losing three first rounders and the epic bust they are one of the top teams in the league. Most teams wouldn’t recover for years after that.

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
Also, pass on Lance. Howell has more arm talent and much better passer

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
we gave up a bunch to the Rams for RG3 but most of their haul turned into poop
Miami has turned their haul into gold. https://www.theringer.com/nfl/2023/8...arnold-lessons

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
Trey Lance must be complete ass to get beat out by Sam Darnold

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
49ers are so lucky that Purdy has played so well. Otherwise, they'd be completely shamed and mocked by this. But they keep winning and still ended up with a good QB (or it appears so, he hasn't played that much), so it's hard to really shit on them that much.

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
Lucky, to some degree yes, but they kept drafting QBs even they already had two and when Garapolo finally left they signed another veteran backup even though they already had two young guys. It helps if you keep turning the backend over because sometimes you find diamonds, and the more you do it the more diamonds you find. It is why it is always worth taking chance on a QB in the late rounds of the draft, he may be nothing, he may be a starter or he may get you back a bunch of mid round picks.

Adam Schefter on X (TAFKAT)
Trade: Isaiah Simmons is being traded from the Cardinals to the NY Giants for a seventh-round pick in 2024, per source. |

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
It will cost the Giants $1m for Simmons, Cardinals giving him away, is he that bad?

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
Agreed . . . Purdy is a great story (even better around here as he went to high school 10 miles from my house and is good friends with one of my friends kids, I'm definitely rooting for him), but i think, at least partially he is a product of being on a loaded team. This will be a telling year for him for sure.

Re: Around the NFL training camp thread
8th overall 1st rounder traded for a ham sandwich, I remember some saying we should draft him instead of Young.
