@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk The question remains: If you’re the incoming GM, is having the exclusive opportunity to negotiate an extension with QN more valuable than a third-round pick?
Personally, I vote yes. You don’t have to agree.
@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk He likely would've brought back a 3rd-round compensatory pick in free agency, and cap space isn't an issue.
Just be consistent. Either you want the incoming GM making decisions about your blue-chip talent, or you don't. There's no wrong answer.
@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk Probably should've applied that same logic to your homegrown, All-Pro, team-captain guard. Which, had you read my original post, you would've understood.
@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk Possible? Absolutely. Reasonable to expect? NO. Nearly every relevant indicator points the other way. You're confusing a conceivable scenario with a probable outcome.
You're allowed to be irrational as a fan, but not as a front office.
@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk Brother, you've invented an entire Packers playoff game, diagnosed the cause of defeat, and negotiated a first-round trade on their behalf.
@colt8818@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk My final statement was too absolute. You're right to correct me.
Still, GMs don't make decisions based on situational prayers. There's NO reason to assume his value will rise, especially with the brutal public reaction. Any GM paying more would face criticism for overpaying.
@Pete4E@ProFootballTalk I think trading QN was the real mistake. That decision put the Colts in a position where whatever they did with JT trade yesterday was going to draw criticism.
Ultimately, they showed their price, they didn't get it, that's bearish. Time isn't going to add more value.
@ProFanLogan -A team trading for him now also gets eight additional games of production
-Contenders pay premiums to win now.
-JT gets older + less games under contract
-Injury risk
-The Colts have already revealed their asking price, and didn't get it. That is bearish not bullish
@Bunchr88@Kyle_Odegard Gotcha. Thought broken ribs might affect how you brace for contact, but apparently that's just muscles and tendons. Thanks, Bunch.
@DrakeFantasy Nepo hire this, nepo hire that. There are certain things I want handled by out-of-touch rich people. Paintings, architecture, orchestras, and sports broadcasting. I want a man whose grandfather owned a yacht telling me what just happened on third down.
@darksidexLOB I assume you're young, no offense intended, but this is one of the most emotionally charged, shortsighted tweets I've ever seen.
His chances aren't ruined, and JSN himself wouldn't even agree with your take, pal.
