I liked Herbert almost as much as Burrow going into the Draft. I thought, and still think, Tua would be a decent but not great starting NFL QB. I wouldn’t give up that much for Lawrence. And if I were the Jags, I wouldn’t give up the top pick for less than that. So I think the Jags stay where they are.

Jacksonville would never give up that pick. Not only is Lawrence a potential franchise QB, but he could be an iconic figure for a franchise that has never had one.

Makes so much sense for Jax to hire Urban Meyer and let him build the team around Lawrence. Nobody goes to Jags games; that would change instantly.

The feelings on Herbert looking pretty good right now. I agree with everything else you said here.  And my aqua-colored glasses say that a good but not great QB can win a super bowl with the type of resources and draft capital Miami has. But swapping a Mahomes for a David Carr certainly gives a team a lot fewer outs.

Mark Brunell?

As for the Dolphins, no way they should do it. Tua is only 22, he’s been inconsistent but he’s not been bad by any stretch this year. He’s had a short leash cause they are in playoff contention and they have a super sub backup in Fitz who is as good as any coming off the bench cold.  I get the Lawrence allure, but they had a pretty good team with a young QB and a ton of good draft capital. They are in a really nice spot

My three hour old prediction on Fields has aged... poorly.

The Saints have placed Alvin Kamara on the reserve/Covid list after he tested positive for Covid.  He will not play tomorrow against the Panthers and may miss the first playoff game if the Saints don't get the #1 seed in the NFC:

The Bengals apparently have a couple of players test positive and/or are symptomatic.

The Dolphins are going to need to trade up for Lawrence or Fields.

The Browns are in! Woo hoo! And looks like they might get the Steelers again - which I think is better than getting matched up with the Bills or Titans.

I really think Patterson touched that ball before he went out of bounds but understand why it didn’t get reversed.

This is Fox’s second crew, how did they not have a camera angle from the reverse sideline?

Replay was inconclusive either way. I just don’t know how the ref originally called him out at the 1 and then changed his call without replay. Even ran the clock for 1 second.

If the player is out of bounds when he initially touches the ball, the KO is ruled out of bounds.

Best part of no fans is some of the onfield audio that picks up, like hearing Davante yelling “are you f-ing serious” to the field judge who didn’t throw the flag on PI.

I can’t believe that Field Judge didn’t throw a flag. Adams had every right to MF that guy.
