You can coach that out of a QB, but that's not always the case. This is why I never had any opinion about any Browns QB at all for the longest time...it's like how much is it the QB vs. the floundering dipassery around them? Look what happened with Tannedope.

I would think even if they took a QB, DEN would want Lock to compete for the role. I figure his trade value is at best a round 2 pick...as low as a 4th. He'd be up for a new contract by then though.

thanat0s 5,181 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I’m indifferent to him. He’s not awful, but nobody is mistaking him for a franchise cornerstone. Too many flashes of great followed by ridiculous amounts of awful. He reminds me of Winston in that sense. AUTiger7222 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

His contract is up around the time Ryan is done and we either move on and draft a guy, or we have a QB who can step in and we re-sign him. If nothing else it’s a low cost to have a decent backup for a few years. Before this season Lock was getting some hype based on his flashes as a rookie, so it’s a bonus if he can be coached up. I’m not pounding the table for the guy, just saying I wouldn’t have a fit about it either like some folks, which is why I said “I wouldn’t hate it”. I won’t say much more on it because it’s merely a hypothetical question that I answered with a little why behind it. Malachore 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Falconcheff 5,564 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Would rather keep our 1st, draft a great OL or Defensive player to truly bolster our team, and trade a fifth to Jax for Gardner Minshew to learn from and back up Ryan for two years, then put Minshew's 37 TDs : 11 INT, 240 YPG, 62.9% completion, 26 year old self on the field and pick up right where we left off...

AUTiger7222 7,659 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 2 hours ago, Geneaut said: Because we have one QB under contract next season. Drew Lock only has 2 years left on his rookie deal. Ryan will be here in 2021, he ain't going anywhere. So say you do that, then get rid of Ryan after 2021, then you've got to make a future decision on Drew Lock on only 1 year of seeing him play on your team (2022). Do you pay big money to keep him based on 1 year? I wouldn't be comfortable with it knowing that NFL history is full of QBs who had 1 really good year and never came close to repeating it. If I'm spending big money on a QB I wanna know it's a proven what I'm gonna get in return. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Look what happened with Tannedope. Yep, Dolphins were just bad under Joe Philbin and Adam Gase. Both were touted as offensive masterminds. It proved that they just looked good just because Aaron Rodgers(Philbin) and Peyton Manning(Gase) were their QBs that helped get them HC jobs. Gase did Tannehill no favors. It's crazy that Adam Gase is only 42 years old and is already a former 2 time NFL HC. Tannehill was never a bad QB prospect, just didn't have the right coaches around him in the NFL until he became a Titan. As for Drew Lock, I'm not sure he can overcome his constant lack of judgement as a passer. He reminds me of a not as good Jay Cutler, minus the careless a-hole attitude.

Fernando C. 1,167 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 If they really want a QB.... get them to ship Chubb, 9th and second this year... get Chubb in his rookie deal with the 5th year option... plus you can grab surtain at 9... garb a 2nd to draft another DE or FS...

They ain't trading Chubb. Especially with Von Miller on the back half of his career and currently under criminal investigation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jidady 10,365 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I would happily trade back with Denver. If they wanted to dump Lock on us, I would ask more than if they made an offer that didn’t include him. Denver can keep its std. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Josh Rosen trade from Arizona to Miami after one season is probably a good comparison but Lock put up a lot of bad tape this season so any team would be buying low on him. He would probably be a throw in to any trade up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beast-N-Da-Sheetz 4,072 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Don't see the point. Lock definitely ain't the future and Ryan's time will be up soon. Just draft a QB at 4 or trade down a few picks. Macknsweetjones 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
