Big difference between qbs now and before regarding leash is the sheer financial commitment top rookies used to have compared to now. Rookie contracts are dirt cheap for abs currently so there isn't that if we cut him were Fed that vet qbs have and rookies used tob

Easy to see he just isn’t a professional. This was pretty evident the moment he was taking a selfie with a fan instead of the final kneel in a game. You can’t get by in the NFL, especially at QB, without dedication. Few that don’t have it seem to figure it out before it’s too late too, and I wouldn’t expect him to be any different. Good move for the culture to cut him. Unfortunate they didn’t do it before this game...handle it like it should have been and perhaps give themselves a chance to win.

It's amazing to me the amount of guys that blow a chance at being a star in the NFL due to behavioural issues. Blackmon, Guice, Haskins, etc. The list is hundreds of names long. So much talent but not enough between their ears to take advantage of it. Just crazy

Also crazy how much they guarantee with their rookie deals (at least the round 1 picks)

It's really not that much in comparison to deals veterans get, and it's why QBs on rookie deals are so valuable. It's a far different landscape than back in the day when the #1 overall pick ended up becoming the highest paid player in the league.

You have to be pretty quick on your feet and wear a mask there, so that might not work.

There's an owner in my league that has spent his first rounder on QB's twice in the last 3 years. Rosen. Haskins.

It's a Superflex league. :lol:

Who makes the most sense to bring in? Notable FA QBs: Dak, Rivers, Trubisky, Cam
Ron will want a vet but Dak won't be available and they will choose Kyle Allen over the others. Ben/Ryan/Stafford wouldn't shock me. Neither would Smith getting another shot

Was thinking the same. Around the same time Haskins was benched (and eventually lost his captaincy), McLaurin was being voted a Captain.

https://www.si.com/nfl/washingtonfootba ... am-captain

Parahrasing- Dwayne Haskins was voted a team captain because he was the quarterback. McLaurin earned it from Day 1 last year. Even with a different coaching staff, everyone knew that McLaurin just oozes leadership and maturity. You don't have to have a bombastic personality to be a leader. McLaurin is humble, mature, smart and has a seasoning well beyond his years.

This happened in my league as well.

In 2020 he took Herbert, so I think hes broken the streak.

I don't think we will see him sign anywhere. The NFL has no patience for immaturity when you play poorly. Been a bit since Ohio State has produced an NFL caliber QB, wonder if that hurts Fields stock?
