Pretty cool seeing some of these moms who have probably struggled like crazy raising kids watching their son get drafted and knowing they're probably going to be pretty well taken care of from here on out.
potential trade deal later? this was just stupid?What is Atlanta doing?
I think the way rookie contracts work has completely screwed up player development, especially in the QB position. Most QBs, especially those drafted in the 1st round, are thrown to the wolves on day 1, and if they survive the wolves by the time their rookie contract ends they move onto the next 1st round QB. OTOH, look what the Packers have done for the last 30+ years - they drafted Rodgers while Favre still had life left in him and let him develop for several seasons, and then turned the reigns over to him... and then they did the same with Love. And - shocker - the Packers have had franchise-caliber QBs playing them for the last 30+ years. As much as I hate it, the Packers have consistently done it right. The rest of the league OTOH, doesn't want to invest in a QB unless they prove themselves on a rookie contract, which is why all these players bomb.
Besides Brady, who was the last team to make the Superbowl with a QB they acquired in free agency? Maybe you count Nick Foles? Although he only played in the post season.One or two come up every year or two. Just a matter of digging deep.
What is Atlanta doing?
Whaaa???!!?? Penix to ATL?

Mahomes sat and watched Smith his first year in the league, started the last game vs Denver.They can take several years to develop their QB for the future. As I said earlier - this has worked for the Packers for decades.

The Bears have had a decent offseason.Well Caleb Williams will have weapons.
Don't get the trade. Jets not going for McCarthy so he would still be there. Hope they didn't give up much.Vikes going for JJ
