Mayfield will never get a 15 million dollar deal for a backup role, M.White is a cheaper option for the league. Jimmy G would be fine and has a history of being able to make the playoffs and has a history with Saleh. But Jimmy G has a history with the medical staff too, that would be my only draw back.

Carr I think would be a safe choice, AR is too much of a distraction and prima-donna, who can know what this guy is going to do or how he is going to act.

AR needs to keep the circus in G.B. If anyone could wreck what the Jets are accomplishing its Woody Johnson by forcing J.D. to get AR no matter the cost.

I'm done with the Aaron Rodgers thing. Carr is talking to teams this weekend at the combine so I think Carr will be with a new team sometime next week.

Lamar is NOT a good investment. He wants to be the highest and most guarnteed money in NFL history and then you add the fact t will cost 3 first round picks. NO THANKS. The guy does not finish a season and his style of play is only going to last another 2 years at most. He will want a MASSIVE deal that will last for a long time. The NFL D guys are already figured him out. You spy Lamar and force him to throw the ball. In the last few years he has been average at best when throwing a ball.

Key word is former.  We have beaten to death the opinions about Lamar's style of play and that he is a mediocre passer.  For all the draft capital we would have to spend AND the huge contract, chances are he will be an anchor around this teams neck in short order.  We also know that this team has not had a QB in decades it seems which is why we are all excited that we may actually be doing something about.  Finally.

Derek Carr. Don't play games and miss out on a massive upgrade at the QB position. Carr is younger, won't cost draft picks, and is a massive upgrade. Numbers are similar to Stafford in Detroit, I think you can win with Carr at QB.

Based on JD’s presser, it feels like JD will sign him when Carr is ready to sign. I think Carr wants to explore all options before FA opens. When he decides where he wants to play, negotiations will begin. If it’s the Jets, JD will make an offer. I do not think JD is waiting for Rodgers. I think JD is waiting for Carr. Just my opinion.

I would rather have Rodgers but I'm still skeptical about the compensation.  So I voted for Carr.

Strictly from a talent perspective, yes, Rodgers tops Carr for now.  Where Rodgers would be lacking is everything else including the expected and inevitable decline which may or may not have already started.  In two years, I would expect Carr to surpass Rodgers.  If Rodgers is even playing anymore.

Not sure what is taking Rodgers so long to make a decision.  He has had plenty of time to do nothing but think.  Maybe he needs a light retreat to counter the effects of the dark.
