I like Prescott, but I would probably trade the Raiders Prescott if I KNEW I could get Kyler Murray for him and also take Carr in the trade at a reduced salary.
You'd be fired soon as you made that deal....who on earth would trade for Carr right now especially when you have Prescott? And in regards to Kyler Murray......I guess because this draft and league is qb hungry they are going to draft him high but why on earth would you draft someone that size who hasn't fully committed to the NFL yet high?

Any GM willing to give up 2 1sts for Prescott would be the answer to the question "who is a worse GM than Booger"?
Well........teams were willing to trade far more for Goff and Wentz and the uncertainty.....someone even traded a 1st for Sam Bradford.......Hell, someone traded a 1st for Roy Williams lol.

Its really a simple answer followed by lots of discussion. No fooling around.

There is nothing to discuss based on the way you laid out the question. Of course everyone would trade a 4th round pick in a draft for 2 high 1st round picks.

But once a player is already on the team, he isn't a pick anymore, he's an asset. That's a different scenario from what you set out in this thread. If you are talking about Dak, as I assume you are, the question has nothing to do with where he was drafted. It is only about his value to the team. I think most would make the trade anyway, but it would have nothing to do with Dak's draft position.

Let me ask you this - would you trade a 6th round pick for a 3rd round pick? If your answer is yes, does that mean you would trade Tom Brady for a 3rd round pick?

Then that would take a GM that values Prescott as highly as those two and that is an unknown. A team willing to part with 2 1sts would be more likely to try for one of the young guns coming up in the draft, I would think.

I would trade for Carr, depending on the terms of the trade, of course. Carr could win a championship here IMO.

What are you referencing to even come to such a conclusion? I'm just curious. IS it the elite level coaching we have here that makes you think he could win a championship here when Dak can't or Romo couldn't?

Yeah you're right. I just don't put anything past any of these GM's especially when I saw Sam Bradford get traded for a 1st rounder......

The 1sts will most likely be two top 10 picks as desperate bottom feeders would be the ones to entertain this trade.

Supporting cast keeps getting better and you can continue running the same systems already implemented.

If not, why wouldn't you take the picks?
Why hide? Just come out and say it. You hate Dak, so this is another Dak hatred thread.

His game fits Garretts Offense better then Dak's. He is more experienced, he is more accurate. This coaching staff is trying to turn Dak into the type of QB that Carr already is. Tony couldn't win because his health was failing, by the time we were good enough. The Coaching staff is what it is. How do you not understand that?

Tony's health was failing? Tony was in this offense long before his "health was failing" lol.

How do you not understanding coaching is a part of this game? How many times do you have to see Andy Reid fail to better coaching staffs? Derek Carr is garbage. I'm sorry. He's the true reason why Amari Cooper got traded to begin with and Khalil Mack. If he was as good as you guys claim him to be the Raiders wouldn't be rebuilding and would be contending.

I'm suppose to believe Derek Carr is a better fit for this offense than Romo was? HA! If Carr can only play in Garrett's offense that's enough reason for me to not want him because I don't even want Garret's offense to begin with.

That's intresting though, I wonder what Dak's value is to a qb needy team that has a strong supporting cast? (If such a team exists)

Not sure what Id trade him for at this point, because we have nothing behind him and call me crazy but Im still excited about his turn around since Coop, and am hoping he continues to improve.

Thinly veiled trade Prescott for two first round picks? No. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Better the devil you now than the one you don't so to speak. Otherwise, you're on drugs if you think we can trade our 4'th rounder in 2019 or Charles Tapper for two first round picks. Share the magic beans friend . You deserve a companion on that magic bean cloud you're on :laugh:

I like Dak. He has some accuracy and progression issues but he's an absolute gamer. I'd love to see what he could do with real coaching (yes, I said it).


However, not a single team in the NFL would give us two 1st round picks for him, let alone two top 10 1st round picks.

It's moot anyway - nobody is going to offer 2 high first rounders for Dak anyway. Even if they were willing, does any team actually have 2 high first rounders?

OK, don't get ridiculous with me. I clearly said, Tony's health was failing by the time we got good enough.

If you don't like Carr, that's fine but you asked me and I gave you the reasoning. Don't get stupid here. You don't like the answer, don't ask the question.

Another not-so-thinly disguised, ridiculously hypothetical Dak thread...how original.

The answer makes no sense.....and Tony's health was fine in 2007 when this team won 13 games.......

I have no problem discussing or debating you guys but you guys have a habit of revising history to fit your truth.....I'm just not with it......sorry.
