That was my thought, trade Dak sign Lamar

If we're going all in for a "top tier" veteran, I'd go with Lamar. He's a FA, so it will only take money. And when healthy, he's very good. He hasn't had the WR room we currently have before either. So I think he can be better as a passer.

Note - "Top Tier" wasn't about Jackson. He's a top 10 NFL QB. It was moreso about what guys will or already do take up an ass-ton of cap space. Whether they are good enough to warrant it or not.

If people are willing to spend money on go no where veterans like Brissett or Dalton, what about Cooper Rush? Are we saying we don’t want to apply pressure to Howell?

Jacoby Brisset is the veteran I'm targeting if we're going with the Howell, draft pick, veteran route (my preferred route).

Not really sure what go no where means. Both of the guys you mentioned are still in the league, therefore, very successful. Rush is 29 too, so not like he's some spring chicken. His limited sample size this year is likely the highlight of his career. Brissett and Dalton have way more tape.

I was talking about the cowboys, I don’t want Lamar.

I know. But just made me think about our own QB options.

I'd prefer the Howell, cheap (by QB standards) Veteran FA, draft pick option.

But if the team decides to go after an expensive option (picks and/or money), give me Lamar.

You would have to let players go for one guy that hasn’t won anything and is becoming injury prone.

They definitely should try to trade him. And every team should say no. That contract is an albatross. He simply isn't good enough to take up that much cap space, especially if you have to give up pick(s) to get him. Very similar to Carr in that regards, imo.

Someone like the Colts would probably listen.

It only takes 1 team. And Irsay is a wildcard. So who knows. But if it was my team, I wouldn't want that trade.

Not my top choice. Just saying if that's the route the team is taking, I'd take Lamar over trading tons of picks for someone that Jackson is just as good as, if not better. As of now, Jackson is the only big time QB that will be a FA. Possibly Carr, if no one trades for that contract. Jackson > Carr imo. So I'll take Jackson in that option.

The problem with Lamar is he's only a big threat when he's healthy and he can run - and he hasn't finished a season healthy in some time. Once his legs are shot and he will have to rely on being a pure passer he is gonna fall off and his contract is gonna be an albatross.

I think it was Grant Paulson who said yesterday pff had Lamar passer ranking as 19th and then lower 20s the last two years. He’s fools gold as a passer. So I agree
