I don't think that matters. If he wants to piss away his NFL career that's on him. As an aside, I personally don't want any player "telling a team not to draft them". That is a big character red flag to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I felt the same way about the situation with SD and Eli. Also, Indianapolis did draft Elway, then he got traded. Elway worked leverage that he would play baseball instead. It's a big deal for sure IMO. I want nothing to do with a rookie QB telling a team, I won't play for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want nothing to do with a rookie QB telling a team, I won't play for you. I don’t like it either but the player is entitled to that. If they don’t want to be drafted by someone I think it’s actually honorable to let the team know and then the team can trade the pick or draft someone else. I mean why draft a player who doesn’t want to play for you? That means they won’t like playing for the team and they’re almost certain to leave as FA when their rookie deal is up.

I guarantee 100% of the players behind those entitled *** spoiled players would accept any team and make the best of it. You want to choose where you go, get through your rookie contract and do what Cousins did. These are highly paid athletes, not 9-5ers. There is nothing "honorable" about telling someone you won't play for them don't pick me. It's highly unprofessional and a serious red flag. If I hear those words come from his mouth, I will never support him in his career. Don't care if he plays here or elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripsean21 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Well I know it’s smoke screen season. So the Bears wanting a historical haul pretty much eliminates us from a trade up. First off there’s a trade value chart. They are trying so hard to drum up hype on this draft. I love the media narrative that this is such a great QB draft. Yes there’s a bunch. But if they were legit great there wouldn’t be the need to hype it. The questions on each prospect are staggering. You know what isn’t staggering? Questions about this OL class. Questions around the WR class. Alt MHJ or Rome even Nabers. Personally I think Rome is a dog!!! They say you can’t have a number two pick and not pick QB. But the truth is it happens year after year because the mark up on the QB in the media doesn’t match what teams actually feel about them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTMONK HOF Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 The #Jets have yet to make a contract offer to star pass rusher Bryce Huff and he’s set to test free agency, says @Connor_J_Hughes Connor says it seems “wildly unlikely” that the Jets keep Huff on the team. Huff also isn’t going to give a hometown discount. Read More Here: sny.tv/articles/jets-… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
