Good one.

Broncos got off pretty easy too, giving up a 1st round draft pick this year and a 3rd next year.

Would be awesome if they could get Bryce as their quarterback. That would be three NFL teams with their starting quarterback and a wide receiver coming from Bama. If the patriots could get a Bama receive that would be 4 teams. Would be a first im sure

FWIW, with the Texans he’d have Metchie.

That’s true.

They're stuck with Russell Wilson for at least two more years.

It's still crazy to me that you can trade for a coach in the NFL.

Payton has the ability to make chicken salad out of chicken shit though... Wilson will be a good project for him, but IMO there's more to work with there than it showed in '22 (although I'm not a fan of Wilson by any means).

I had no clue you could do this.

we'll see. All of his success was with one QB and he lucked out as that was Drew Brees - match made in heaven. And Drew played forever.

Yep. If they are under contract, you can negotiate.

Who's the QB in Denver?

Russell Wilson.

 

[SnakeDoc]

Russell Wilson.

Thanks. I always think he's still in Seattle.

Same here until Gruden got traded from the Raiders to the Bucs. And then led the Bucs to a super bowl victory in year 1…. Over the Raiders! Bucs traded 2 first round and 2 second round picks for Gruden, if I remember correctly. Crazy stuff!

I didn't even know that happened, ha ha.

Sounds about right. You're spot on, though I'm not sure about the # and type of draft picks. I do remember a 1st rounder being involved.

The next Super Bowl was Gruden's Bucs over Callahan's Raiders. And, I believe that was the Super Bowl where the Raiders' starting center was a no show for the game due to some sort of mental breakdown.

He also really helped Jameis
