AkronsWitness Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 2 minutes ago, LETSGOBROWNIES said: Carr is.. idk man. Like, he’s better then Baker, but he’s not GOOD. If the raiders don’t think Carr is good enough to go toe to toe with those teams, I’m not sure we should either. Carr is an improvement, sure, but I’m not trading a first and then some to get him. Hes nothing amazing, but he fits thats 'game manager' type player this coaching staff is looking for. He is in the same category as Jimmy G/Alex Smith/Case Keenum in terms of style. The difference is Carr brings a little more upside/take over game ability/pazzaz than the others do. He would be a elite level "I only want our QB to throw the ball 22x per game" type of guy since thats what we look for in this offense.

Its just a matter of how long will it take them to realize they are likely out of that race for the next few seasons and use their time to rebuild. Maybe next offseason if they go 6-13? Just trying to stay positive lol I don't want a guy like him in the AFC North, especially with his track history of playing poorly in inclement weather in Cleveland. If we were a dome team, maybe, but we aren't. I'd literally never go for anything other than an elite armed QB here in the AFC North, and successful Midwest teams like the Packers with Favre/Rodgers, the Bills with Kelly/Allen, and the Steelers with Ben/Bradshaw feel the same. It's a no brainer. Bernie was fun in a different era...times have changed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDD Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 So now the move is to get Carr for a 1st and 3rd and Baker?? I'm starting to think everyone is just throwing **** at the wall to see what sticks That would be a terrible trade and a waste of a 1st and 3rd. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you’re wrong here, I just hate the idea of seeing ‘22 be a fart noise of a season just cuz. In my world, this Baker situation unfortunately probably isn't salvageable, which sucks. So, this is the next best option IMO, and that's a frustrating one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not trading Baker a 1 and a 3 for a game manager in the same category as journeymen and backups. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welp, I guess the best thing to do is get Jimmy G and then draft one. Back to this game again........sigh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn’t have to be tricky or involve a bunch of moving pieces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this may be best case scenario if Watson is gone! I just wonder if we draft one this year or next? or both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reginaldm9 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Kinda figured we’d never get Watson since we were the only AFC team in the running. No reason for the Texans to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawgX Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Hope the team can resolve the issues with Baker. I'm not sure Carr is better than Baker is at his best. A bit more consistent, yes, but certainly not worth giving up valuable assets for. Jimmy G? Yeah, no thanks. Ride or die with Baker this year. If he sucks, move on in 2023. If he plays well, slap the franchise tag on him. Basically, let's just hope the relationship between Stefanski/FO and Baker isn't as bad as the media has been suggesting.
