Time to look ahead to 2020

[albany ed]

It could be possible to acquire an aging but still productive QB in a trade with either the Lions (Stafford) or the Bengals (Dalton). It's an extremely short term fix, but you could draft a young, talented but raw QB in the draft, and give him time to come around while you have one of these two for a year or two. They both have large contracts which will end in another year, and their current teams may be ready to move on. If so, you can get them in a trade for not much, maybe a 5th or 6th rounder. Colts can afford the cap hit, especially since it's so short term. I remember when the Colts got Harbaugh and he clicked for a short time.

Stafford would be a good fit for us. Dalton? Meh.

As to teams looking to acquire a QB in this draft, who do we see in that field?

My quick takes are: Tampa, Cheats, Carolina?, Chicago, Raiders?

Bengals, and Dolphins

I would throw the Chargers in the mix as well.

Rivers is in the final year of his contract.

There have been rumblings that the Chargers are ready to move on. The team has scouted the top QB's in the draft the last several years and haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Rivers has also discussed the possibility of retiring or playing for other teams next year. More recently, he has stated he would prefer to stay with the Chargers but previously he had named a few teams that were on his radar.

There was a Brady to the Chargers rumor as well.

If JB goes down again does Reich see what Kelly can do or march Hoyers dumb ass out? This has been such a frustrating season. At this point dont sit back and keep doing the same. That's what Pagano did with his chopped wood shit.

I would definitely like to see what Kelly can do. I doubt it’s much, but at this point in the season it would be good to find out. Don’t think you can bench Brissett to do it though. He’s still likely your starter next year. But if he gets hurt there is no reason Hoyer should see the field over Kelly at this point.
