What would be truly fascinating would be a QB trade. I wonder if the Falcons, given that they have some real weapons in place, would be interested in a deal for Carr and what the cost might be.

Mariota won't do anything for Oakland - but would Ridder? I mean if the Raiders could get Carr moved for Ridder and a 2nd, they'd be crazy not to, IMO.

And the Falcons, given the soft-ass NFC South, would have to be viewed as favorites the moment Carr hit the roster. Because unlike Mariota, he could/would put Pitts and London to decent use.

I mean that obviously won't happen for a hundred different reasons, but damn it'd be interesting. Move Jacobs for a 3rd rounder and see if you could get Antonio Gibson back as a potential rehabilitation candidate for a 5th? He's still cheap next season.

And you have a half a season to find out if you have anything but a quality backup in Ridder. If you don't, you've ensured that 1st rounder is pretty damn high and you can move for your QBOTF.

C'mooooooon, NFL owners. Just let me run a team for a bit. Pleeeeeeaaaaase. I'll even take the shitty ol' Raiders.

You would be a fantastic GM but like George Carlin used to say, “There’s a club and you ain’t in it.”
