Offer 25 mil a year to Flacco...lulzBR1986FB;1376720 wrote:I don't want Alex Smith either. I think he'd be nothing more than a stopgap. Save the money and use it on a stud defensive player or a guard. As I said before, franchise QB's (unless they are injured ala Drew Brees) don't hit the market in free agency and certainly don't get benched.

I get the "lulz" but Flacco isn't hitting the market. If he somehow pulls off a Super Bowl win his bargaining chip just got a lot bigger. He's the winningest QB, on the road, in NFL history.wes_mantooth;1376724 wrote:Offer 25 mil a year to Flacco...lulz

Doubt he gets it. He sees himself as a top 5/elite QB where the rest of the world sees the truth.wes_mantooth;1376729 wrote:Yeah, I just read where he will command 20 mil with a super bowl win....insane to me

I'd seriously laugh in his face if I was the Ravens front office and he asked for 20mil a year.

Newsome isn't dumb enough to give him that kind of money. Baltimore may see him as a franchise QB but he's not top 5.Rotinaj;1376734 wrote:I'd seriously laugh in his face if I was the Ravens front office and he asked for 20mil a year.

i think he is def a solid franchise qb, but he is not even close to top 5. That is why the money he wants is so crazy to me.BR1986FB;1376737 wrote:Newsome isn't dumb enough to give him that kind of money. Baltimore may see him as a franchise QB but he's not top 5.

I just remember around draft time me and a few other guys on here liked Wilson and looks like we were right about him and BR and COA were definitely wrong about Wilson and him being a 3rd string QB and a career backup.

He had a good season for sure, probably being stubbon but still not a believer. Wouldn't be the first time I was wrong on a player (AP, Robert Gallery) and probably wont be the last.zach24oz;1376797 wrote:I just remember around draft time me and a few other guys on here liked Wilson and looks like we were right about him and BR and COA were definitely wrong about Wilson and him being a 3rd string QB and a career backup.

Yep, I was off on that for sure. Wilson looks like he could have the better career than RGIII. Poised, can find the throwing lanes at his height and knows when to slide and not take a hit, unlike Griffin. I say this because his career will likely be longer than Griffin's. I'll be surprised if Griffin's the same after this knee issue.zach24oz;1376797 wrote:I just remember around draft time me and a few other guys on here liked Wilson and looks like we were right about him and BR and COA were definitely wrong about Wilson and him being a 3rd string QB and a career backup.
I could very well be wrong on Weeden too but I'm not giving up on that until I see him function in the proper offense.

Honest question: Does anyone on here know anyone that works for the Browns organization?

Brent Sobleski ‏@brentsobleski While pass rush & CB are teams top needs, don't rule out S.Lotulelei as an legitimate option at No. 6 for Browns. Especially in 3-man fronts

I think less of Ozzie than I did 30 years ago due to things I hear and see.

Grossi just tweeted that Browns will probably have new QB in 2013 either by trade or Free Agency after speaking to Haslam. Take it with a grain of salt.
