Was reading an article the other day how no owner is going for Jackson as they want to stop this fully guaranteed malarkey that Watson got from the Browns and has got Jackson asking for as well.
Said it is unprecedented that such an established QB being available had so many QB needy teams openly stating they were not on for him.
As an aside, I didn’t know that for any fully guaranteed part of a contract, the team have to deposit the whole of that guaranteed money in an account with the league
Always find draft season fascinating. Could see 3 QBs in the top 4 picks going, Cardinals I don't know if they'll trade #3 to someone trying to move up (Raiders??) or just draft Will Anderson anyway to give them some pass rush.

I didn’t know that about the central account for guaranteed money either. Makes sense with owners like Snyder around.
Definitely some collusion around the Jackson contract but he’ll get paid wherever he goes. My money is on one of Detroit, Colts or 49ers (but they’d have to wait until after the draft).
It's basically what the Broncos did with Peyton Manning, get a legend to play his last couple of seasons for you and potentially be in the mix for the Super Bowl. After he retires, normal service is resumed.

Bryce Young? I personally think Stroud will be the best QB in this class.
I’m just a depressed Ravens fan trying to pretend Lamar won’t leave me.

Fully expect them all off the board by 7. Could see the Seahawks taking Richardson as a project behind Geno.
Not often in the past seasons that I can say we definitively have the worst QB in our division
