There should be two different types of pass interference maybe.

There's the ticky tack shit they call, that should be 15 yards.

If you fucking tackle a guy to stop him from catching it, that's a spot foul.
That's the only way I'd be ok with a pass interference change.

Change them all to 15 yards and what's to stop every DB mugging a receiver farther than that down the field?

Rams are trading Robert Quinn to the Dolphins. Just got an alert on my phone. That's odd.

Surely nobody is this stupid and/or desperate. Right?

Haha the guy was shit and suddenly a streak in the playoffs makes him elite? I can guarantee who ever trades for him is going to be horribly disappointed with the results.

You would think with the number of bad trades for shitty QBs that have been done over the years that have failed miserably, some of these dumbass GMs would figure it out.

In fact, I cannot even think of one time where a team traded for a QB and got value out of it.

Garoppolo? Favre?

Favre might be the only one. Garoppolo was for a second, relatively low cost and risk.

There are a dozen examples where teams give up first round picks and end up setting themselves back for years.

Sam Bradford - Phil to Minn
Carson Palmer - Cin to Oak
Jay Cutler - Den to Chi
Drew Bledsoe - NE to Buff
Brad Johnson - Minn to Wash
Rob Johnson - Jax to Buff
Rick Mirer - Sea to Chi
Craig Erickson - TB to Ind
Jeff George - Indy to Atl
Joe Montana - SF to KC
Brett Favre - Atl to GB
Steve Walsh - Dall to NO
Chris Chandler - Ind to TB

One time? The rest aren't even close.

Minny trading for Tarkenton in '72 certainly worked out. Ditto Steve Young in Frisco, and to a certain extent Palmer in Arizona.

Giants traded for Eli. That worked out pretty well for them.

Aside from Tarkenton, not first rounders.

My point is setting the team back by trading a first. Send a 2nd or lower, not that big of a risk. Any team that trades a first for a system QB like Foles is asking to get fucked.

If I am a Buffalo fan or something, I am praying my team is not one caving to Roseman's price.

I think a 2nd and a 5th would be more realistic.

Not sure why anyone would do that. Look at the entire history of Foles. No idea how anyone could be that fooled by a few games of being coached up running a bunch of gimmicky type plays.
