I was going to post this, but I was beaten to it. It makes more sense if you see the draft in that light of a 5-year window.

He's 43 this year and looked like a shell of his former self last season.

He looked great considering he had nobody to throw too, how do you think our guy does with his set of receivers?

Hey what up man you finally got your wish they got rid of my ability to add a avatar. I know you just loved my Nipsey avatar.......coincidentally I'm banned from adding a avatar for some reason.

Hey, thanks for the update Rock Your Ice.

I have no idea of what you’re talking about but I’m willing to take credit if it has caused you any emotional distress.

I mean does the draft pick come with or without the contract dispute? I'd move him down the list quite a ways over that, behind guys like Mayfield, Burrow, Murray, and Tua where you don't have to worry about the money.

Fair point. There are some teams that would not touch Dak. Some owners and GMs are super cheap and philosophy is reflective of their success.

Prescott, Wentz, and Burrows were picked over a a 6 time winning qb. Let that sink in and just goes to show how off this is.

So was Maholmes, Wilson, and Deshaun Watson. Whats your point?

No mention of CeeDee Lamb? Instead, the Cowboys choose Kyler Murray?

You do know though this isn't the Jags actually drafting Dak though right?

I know, but I think whoevers doing the mock did a typical Jags messed up pick :laugh:

Julio jones is really confused by this list.

This is pretty lame. That being said, it is amazing that outside of a semi-large chunk of Cowboys fans that frequent this site, Dak is considered a very good franchise caliber QB.

Not really. It's basically a list based on age for QBs.

I agree. It doesn't make any sense. Why would Arizona want Brees who has one season left over Murray - a guy who fits their system and is on a rookie contract for several more years!?

Giants would pick Aaron Rodgers. The guy has 4-5 years left on the clock if he wants it.

Teddy Bridgewater? Tannehill before Stafford? Yikes

I don;'t think he has 4-5 more really productive years left. When he was Favre's backup and got in at garbage time for a few snaps, he kept getting injured. Then he stayed healthy for a lot of his starting years until the past couple and he's been getting injured again. The injuries come more often as players get older and he's already started that. I think injuries will shorten his career.to maybe 2 or 3 more years at best.

I think it's up to whether he wants to play. He seems like the type of character who is pretty content with his lot. I think it depends on whether he fancies a new challenge after he likely leaves the Packers in a year or two or decides to retire. He has the type of game to sit in the pocket and play several more years. I take your point about injuries but he played all regular season games the past two seasons and if he's playing behind a line that protects him then I don't think it's a major issue personally.

Vinnie2u · Jun 9, 2020

They must of forgotten about Jeff Heath. The disrespect continues.

atlantacowboy · Jun 9, 2020

Still not a top 5 QB, even in this rosy scenario. I wonder what that draft would look like in a capped league.

I was wrong, Rodgers missed more than half the season 3 years ago but even though starters don't play much in preseason, he did twist a knee last year in camp and that was without any contact. He's right now going into his 16th season and even though Brady and Brees have played longer that doesn't mean that there's a new career length of QB's. Most people think that the end of the last couple of seasons that Brees arm was looking pretty weak. Rodgers may prove me wrong, but I still think father time and/or injuries will shorten your estimate.

To be honest I think there's a fair chance Rodgers will retire after playing for the Packers which could be in two years.

You could be right in that injury will curtail his career. My own thought is that he could end it a bit earlier than expected if he doesn't join a team with a Superbowl calibre roster on both sides of the ball.

If he is offered to join a team like the Colts at the end of this season then I could see him playing for another 3-4 years thereafter. I would envisage a Peyton Manning Denver Broncos type scenario.
