When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

If he is a solid starter after three seasons he'll get a contract north of 100 million. What could get interesting is another Osweiler situation if he goes to say Dallas. If Romo stays healthy for the next four years and Wentz doesn't play much or like in Brock's case 7 games. What do you have? IMO, not enough games to definitely answer that question. Houston gave him starter money, Denver wanted a little discount.
Nice tweet response to Carson. Looks like from Jordan/Nike brand.

FWIW, another anonymous exec report, could be just a smoke screen.The scoop: "Don't be surprised if a team like the Eagles makes a really strong move up the board to get (Carson) Wentz. I don't think he's worth it, but I think they do. Everyone thinks you have to move ahead of Cleveland, but (Browns Chief Strategy Officer Paul DePodesta) will want to get as many picks as possible out of this draft. It wouldn't surprise me if a team moved directly to Cleveland's spot for Wentz." -- NFC executive
The skinny: The Eagles clearly need a QB and their trade up from No. 13 to No. 8 gets them closer to being able to move up for that piece, if they choose to. If they only have eyes for Wentz, then it could become very prohibitive to move up the board; however, if Cal QB Jared Goff were to be in play for the Eagles as well, it isn't much of a stretch to believe they could move up the few slots they would need to pick Goff. I believe Wentz is the more highly valued of the two QBs.
Have to consider the possibility that everyone is fibbing about what they want to do in the draft but it wouldn't shock me at all if Cleveland moves back and accumulates. They have a LOT areas they need to address and even with the rookie contracts now there is probably still more positive EV to be had if you can find a trade partner who thinks they're only one piece away.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
