Here's my plan:

1. Flip Dak for Aaron Rodgers and a 7th.
2. Flip Rodgers and a 7th for Deshaun Watson.
3. Flip Watson for Russell Wilson and a 5th.
4. Flip Wilson and a 5th for Lamar Jackson and a 4th.
5. Flip Jackson and a 4th for Patrick Mahomes.

You've just traded Dak for Mahomes straight up.

I'd stop at 1.

All we need is George Clooney and Brad Pitt to lead this beautiful heist.

Dak finally signs his tag as Mahomes does not get a new deal done prior to the tag signing period deadline.

We have Dalton as a backup right now as we speak and are able to find a trade partner for Dak. We know we can get 2 first rounds picks from our future trade partner that values Dak as a young superstar and leader. We also know that Dalton basically signed on for $3 million with real difficult incentives put in place to make $7 million.

We talk to Cam Newton's camp who says's his shoulder was cleared last season and good to go but the Lisfranc was the problem. However it is now fully healed being off since the 3rd week of last season and they are willing to do a 2 year $40,000,000 deal, $10 million guaranteed. That's $23,000, 000 to the QB position for 2020 as opposed to $35 to $43 million.

We then have Cam starting, Dalton backing up and 3 total 1st round pick in next years draft that has Trevor Lawrence and another solid QB class. Furthermore, if we do go far into the playoffs with Cam we can draft young impact players to fill the positions that held us back from taking it all.

Dak did bum his throwing shoulder at the end of the season so who knows there too healthwise. We were already a bit worried about his deep ball overall. Below is an interesting article ranking all QB's arm strength pro and college. Cam and Dalton are both ranked higher.

My only question doing this is what would it do to the locker rooms moral? Newton has been to a Superbowl and is one of the leagues freak athletes. Other than Lamar Jackson, he's probably the most freakish QB in the league and 30 years old.

Cam's character off the field may not be as well reputed as Dak's but Cam definitely is a family man and a former 1st overall pick. He has never gotten to play with such weapons on offense also. 3 stud WR's, one of the leagues best o-lines, a blooming young TE and a perennial rushing leader all bundled in 1 offense.

What's everyone's take?

One thing for sure...Dak is quickly becoming enemy #1 on this team. Don't blame the agent....Dak is his own man. And if he does get a great deal, he is going to be given ZERO rope the first time he lays a couple turds in back to back games.

-------4. Flip Wilson and a 5th for Lamar Jackson and a 4th.

Now that would be a steal, given that Flip Wilson has been dead for 22 years now.

Heck of a time during our current societal challenges to look greedy and not be top tier.

Zeke laid at least 9 turds last year and some still love him?

One thing that people need to learn about Dak and QB's like him....you don't suddenly learn to be accurate. He couldn't even hit The Clapping Carrot in the hands from 12 yards playing catch....much less hit his receivers in stride.
