Broncos to trade Cutler

SmootSmack · 04-02-2009, 01:08 AM

What's upsetting people the most about this alleged deal? Is it losing draft picks potentially? Is it just the idea of change again?

He's not the rah-rah, follow me to freedom kind of guy.

Well, Eli Manning isn't a rah-rah guy either.

The top trade rumor out there is a 3-way that gets Cutler to Detroit, Quinn to Denver, and picks to Cleveland (and picks to Denver and Detroit as well)

It should be noted that contrary to popular belief, Cutler would actually kind of like the idea of playing in Detroit (he and Calvin Johnson are rumored to be pretty close, I think they share the same agent)

And that's what it should be. It makes great sense for all teams involved. I mean, what would make the most sense would be for Cutler and McDaniels to kiss and make up, but we all know that's not possible. So given the current situation, this is a great move.

Quinn is a far better prospect that Cassell ever was. McDaniels could potentially make him damn good.

I think that it plays more to his character and playing style to be how he is, because if he tried to come out as a hotshot he knows he'd be fooling himself and misleading the rest of us

Agreed...Campbell's leadership is exemplified when he stands tall in the pocket to deliver a strike even though a LB is inches away from crushing him cuz the line evaporated into thin air w/ "hut" and afterward Jason just picks himself up w/o complaining. I'll take his kind of leadership over the loudmouth any day of the week and twice on Sunday...but of course the quiet, non-flashy types don't create as much dollar value for the franchise as the other kind

It's all about how much we give up. In this case upgrading the QB position doesn't necessarily equate to upgrading the Redskins as a whole. And improving the TEAM (not wearing blinders and pigeon-holing all kinds of needs for one guy), should be the overall focus at all times.

Well, as I understand it, if Campbell does end up in Denver it won't be because they wanted him but because we forced him on them

What the Redskins are reportedly proposing is not earth shattering though.

It's the idea that Snyder can't let someone else run the show. He get's bored and amuses himself with this sort of shit.

For me, its Cutlers alleged alcohol abuse. A diabetic has no business drinking alcohol AT ALL, let alone in the amounts Cutler is reported of as drinking. It also shows a pattern of self-destructive behavior. Cutler is too risky of a move.

That said, if we did trade a plethora of picks for Cutler, the Skins could make up for it by trading Campbell to Chicago for Briggs, straight up... oh wait, thats impossible, nevermind.

No OL help in the draft and the loss of stability.

Stability is something that Joe Gibbs put a lot of effort into when he came here. I don't want us go back to major wholesale personnel changes on a yearly basis because no one has the balls to stand up to Dan's wonderlust.

I won't cry a river if JC leaves. For me it's what we'd have to give up. We need starting caliber talent at tackle and OLB right now. Like yesterday. Giving up our top pick(s) craps on our chances at a guy like Oher, who we can agree we'd both love in B&G.

I don't know what Cutler would do to our '09 cap, but it I'm sure it would hinder our ability for more FA O-lineman or OLBs to go with the picks we'd have to shed to pick him up.

Which is...???

Lets Take Cutler, I love Campbell (great guy) but hes not a franchise QB. Hes a solid good quarterback that i hope has a great career. But his contract is ending and id much rather go with a kid who has some growing up to do but can carry this team for years to come. If we have the right veteran leadership and core guys (which i think we do)they can groom cutler into the elway we didnt get

So what the word on what were offering? JC and the 13th? I wouldn't mind JC and Betts for Cutler.
