You just can't have as weak as an arm as he does and still succeed. And no offense to him, his brain power isn't much compared to the other weakest arm QB I can remember, Chad Pennington.

I think people confuse hall of fame and franchise qbs.
There is certainly a price too high for a franchise qb like Bradford,smith,luck,flacco etc There's no price too high for a Manning,Brady,Brees etc (05-18-2018, 12:30 AM)lastonealive Wrote: I think people confuse hall of fame and franchise qbs. Agreed, but rarely are there opportunities to acquire such QBs if you aren't rolling the dice in the draft. In the case of the draft, the cost is the loss of a draft pick, and years (years of stagnation, rebuilding, etc.) That cost can be extremely high in the worst cases... franchise devaluation, staff overhaul, revenue loss, even moving. In free agency, though... it's nearly impossible to acquire the best regardless of what you're offering. It's a matter of keeping what you have - and franchises typically do what they have to in order to keep them... until the cost/benefit starts to decline in the twilight years. Near the very end, the cost of keeping even the HOF QBs is higher than the cost of not moving on. The Colts got there with Manning. NE is going to have to decide what to do soon with Brady. Brady is making that decision quite difficult. NE has done a terrific job of building and maintaining their franchise to weather that storm, IMO. I hate that they have, but they appear to have done it.
