Tarkenton and Theismann are both unrestricted free agents ...... I wouldn't mind seeing either one of them play QB for the Colts next season.

He sucks!

Not only do they think he's good, they link he's one of the top GMs in the league.

To be fair I don't think he outright sucks. He does mostly draft well, but his roster building philosophy sucks. He relies way too much on current players or draft picks seamlessly stepping in and producing well (even at super critical positions), and what's worse is that he never hedges these decisions. Also, he prioritizes physical traits over production on the field too much.

Dammy gets his wish and Stroud heads to the Draft.

But can they get an off campus pass from their nursing homes on Sundays?

Good. If nothing else that improves the chances of us getting a QB we like at 4 and also probably lowers the price on trading up to get one if needed.

Hey Dam. I'm curious. What would you rather have the Colts do: trade up for Stroud or go back in time to 2021 and trade up for Mac Jones?

Honestly didn't expect it. I was reading rumors of $12m NIL.

This is good for the Colts. Whether they end up drafting him or not... more QB choices is better. I suppose it helps in the bidding war department as well when teams start trying to move places.

Go back through this board and pick up everyone he was sure was "The Man" and he would hit about 20% of his picks

That's a tough one. I'd grade Stroud better than Jones, but I feel like it would have been much cheaper to go up for Jones, like no future 1s involved in getting to 14 that year. Obviously Belicheat has done no favors for Jones's development, but I feel like the Colts offense would've been a better fit for him. I'd probably ultimately go with Stroud because he's the better talent of the two. He will cost more but in the long run it won't be noticeable.

I don't do Dane Brugler style rankings, and I don't post my opinions on every available player, so this would be nearly impossible to do. I would place your 20% estimate as low, however. I'm actually interested in tracking this if anyone has a way to do it. Maybe an instant redraft of who I would've drafted instead? Still hard to do, because we can never know what trades would be available, so it would be hard to argue taking Tremaine Edmunds and Derwin James instead of Quenton Nelson, for example, because we don't KNOW the Bills would have traded 12 and 22 for 6 that year.

The next OSU Qb failure.
