Colts can probably get Jimmy for a 3rd round pick. 

Realistically speaking, does Jimmy G have that kind of value?  He's played in 31 games over the past four years, and his ANY/A was 7.31 in his only fully healthy season.  He was the 10th highest ANY/A that season.  But his cap hit is just under $25M.

... for a QB playing at a high level, with quality years left and a very reasonable 2 year contract remaining. Yes, it starts with a 1st.

Agreed the reasonable contract is a big plus for teams looking to trade for him. Think it starts with a 1st or a good player/QB plus 2nd round or later picks

Whoever said it got it perfect - if the Lions send him to the Bears it better be 3 #1s or something else over the moon before I'll accept it

If the Niners offer #12 and some other pick that would be beautiful. 12 is about as high of a pick as I expect them to get.

I really wouldn't consider Garoppolo or Lock any kind of value in return. The only player I'd want in return is Watson. If the Texans would take Stafford and #7, the Lions better do that.

33 year old QB that never won a playoff game with 2 years remaining on a big contract. No it doesnt. Not for someone smart. No unless you have the best defense in the league and an average supporting cast.

The injury issue is the biggest problem, but yeah, he'll get that in trade compensation I'm pretty sure. Again, it's a market thing. Teams need quarterbacks. His contract is fine and it's able to be navigated pretty easily .

He's getting a first.
