Schefter, on the Pat McAfee show, said that "there was no trade market for Trey Lance and the 49ers didn't have any trade talks with teams." Purdy is the starter if healthy, and "my guess going into camp is that Sam Darnold has the edge to be number two".

Schefty also spoke a little about Diggs and the Buffalo situation. The two quotes from their Twitter:

"I think that Stefon Diggs unhappiness goes back weeks and maybe months. ... Everything is good right now but let's see if it lasts."

"I don't know the specifics of what happened in Buffalo [referencing Frazier's departure, possibly Lombardi's rumor]. ... It's hard to imagine that Frazier and McDermott couldn't get along and figure something out."

The Bills immediately become a LA Rams style "you better win right now because you're screwed for a few years if you don't" sort of team.

That's not a roster construction approach I'd take if I had a team with a top-3 QB in his mid-20s.

So maybe the Saints are a better comparison?

Either way, loading up on expensive stars past their prime isn't a great strategy. It can work, but it's a great way to get stuck with a bunch of cap space allocated to guys that aren't even on the field.

They've already got danger zone aging player contracts on Von Miller, Mitch Morse, and Matt Milano. Adding DeAndre Hopkins and Dalvin Cook to that list isn't a great plan unless they come at a very nice discount.

I named those because they stood out in my memory of watching great SB's.

2000: Marshal Faulk.

Faulk is one of only three NFL players to reach at least 10,000 rushing yards and 5,000 receiving yards and the only one to amass 12,000 yards rushing and 6,000 yards receiving.


2001: Antowain Smith. 1,150 yards rushing for the regular season. 11th in rushing that year. Of those who finished above him that year, only half of them even made the playoffs.

The next season Smith rejuvenated his professional career when he joined the New England Patriots. He ran for 1,157 yards and 12 touchdowns in the regular season. He also ran for 204 yards in the playoffs as the Patriots won Super Bowl XXXVI.


2002: Mike Alstott.

Michael Joseph Alstott (born December 21, 1973), is an American former professional football player who was a fullback in the National Football League (NFL) for 12 seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Nicknamed "A-Train", he played college football at Purdue and was selected by the Buccaneers in the second round of the 1996 NFL Draft. Alstott received six Pro Bowl and three first-team All-Pro honors during his career


2003: Faulk & Antowain Smith.

2004: Corey Dillon.

During his last three seasons, he played for the Patriots, where he was named to a fourth Pro Bowl and contributed to New England's victory in Super Bowl XXXIX. He retired with over 11,000 rushing yards and is 20th in NFL rushing yards.


2005: Jerome Bettis.

A six-time Pro Bowl and two-time first-team All-Pro selection, he is regarded as one of the greatest power runners of all time and ranks eighth in NFL rushing yards.



Need more? Then do them yourself.

I do agree the salary cap has greatly devalued the RB position. It's all over the NFL chat sites as well as talking heads on tv. There's only a small group of highly paid RB's in the league these days, my local Titans having Derrick Henry as one of them. Now it seems as if RB is as interchangeable as a kicker is?

Brady played for the greatest coach in NFL history on well-constructed and well-coached teams, and then won one more playing for a different well-constructed and well-coached team.  Regardless, Brady can’t be credited for the referees interpreting a fumble in a way no one had ever seen in the history of pro football up to that time.  He can’t be credited for not running Marshawn Lynch from the 1.  And he can’t be credited for Atlanta snapping the ball with 10+ seconds left on the play clock over and over in the 4th.  He was lucky and good, and was fortunate to have perfect situations around him.  Nevertheless, wins are not a stat for any individual player.

In 2000, the top 3 RBs were Edgerrin James, Robert Smith, and Eddie George,

In 2001, Priest Holmes, Curtis Martin, and Stephen Davis.

In 2002, Ricky Williams, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Priest Holmes.

In 2003, Jamal Lewis, Ahman Green, and LaDainian Tomlinson.

In 2004, Curtis Martin, Shaun Alexander, and Corey Dillon.

In 2005, Shaun Alexander, Tiki Barber, and Larry Johnson.

So from your list, only Corey Dillon was in the top 3, and he was 3rd.  Great and valuable historical perspective from a football historian, thank you.

If he wasn't a "good" QB, then why/how did he make millions of $$$ in the NFL?

Further proving many of you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground:

Jeff George (born December 8, 1967) is an American former football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for 14 seasons. He played college football at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where he won the Sammy Baugh Trophy, and was selected first overall by the Indianapolis Colts in the 1990 NFL Draft. A member of seven teams during his career, George helped the Atlanta Falcons in 1995 and the Minnesota Vikings in 1999 reach the playoffs and led the league in passing yards during the 1997 season with the Oakland Raiders.



You don't lead the NFL in a positive category in anything by not being good. Jesus.  

Are there #1 pick busts? Sure, many of them. Ryan Leaf being one of the more notable. But NFL GM's don't keep a guy in the league for 14 years because he sucks. My point about George was his arm strength, not where he ranked among QB's.

If he wasn't a "good" QB, then why/how did he make millions of $$$ in the NFL?

Further proving many of you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground:

You don't lead the NFL in a positive category in anything by not being good. Jesus.  

Are there #1 pick busts? Sure, many of them. Ryan Leaf being one of the more notable. But NFL GM's don't keep a guy in the league for 14 years because he sucks. My point about George was his arm strength, not where he ranked among QB's.

You have to be trolling at this point. A QB that plays for seven teams isn’t “good” by NFL standards.

I had a response typed that said this exact thing and decided not to bother.

So, in other words, you're pulling it out your ass. Big surprise.

Not trolling at all. Just amazed YOU think YOU'RE smarter than seven NFL GM's who signed him over his career AND paid him millions of dollars.

You also dodge him leading the NFL in passing one season. Jesus, I can't believe someone employs you.

Matthew Schaub is an American former football quarterback who played for 17 seasons in the National Football League. (



You think you stay in the NFL for 17 years by being "average" or worse? Obviously he was a back-up for most of his career, but GM's & HC's don't keep people because they're jewish, do they?

Well since the self proclaimed NFL historian doesn’t know Jack shit….

You listed Jerome Bettis on the 2005 Steelers as “proof” that top2-3 or HOF quality backs carried every team the Super Bowl since the 60s.

He rushed for a total of 368 yards that season. 548 yards if you include the four playoffs games.

Willie Parker rushed for 1200 yards that season, on the same team.

Look man, I know you're new to the board, but try being respectful.

There is certainly a time and place for banter but these guys have been doing the NFL thread for a dozen odd years, generally know what they're talking about, and can back it up with facts and stats.

This is what they are doing and what you haven't done.  It shouldn't be a surprise that you are getting called on it.
