Played in Tennessee earlier this year. Was a one possession game late. Officials were awful in that game both ways. So hopefully they actually let them play. 

Yea. I remember yelling at my TV over that. You think they would considering the situation 

Unless there is something going on behind the scenes, Baker is soft as goose-ish. I don't think he'd be able to handle Philly.

Again why would we trade assets for a marginally better QB for a one year rental? Just stick with Hurts or even Minshew if that’s the case.

A 3rd RD pick is worth it, and he is not marginally better than Hurts.

If he works out, you have your QB. If he doesn't, then one less likely bust draft pick by Howie.

Y’all have lost your damn minds wanting to trade for Baker

Relax. It's not like we're flipping one of our 1st. We can still draft the fat hog😁

Never know what officials you are going to get. I dont think those were SEC officials. I believe they were pac 12 for that game. They are some of the worst in the country. It’s why that pac 12 championship game was so choppy

At least it gives the young receivers one year to learn how to play WR since he can actually throw the ball.

A 3rd round pick for a rental QB when we have two is just dumb. I want no part of Baker. Agree to disagree I guess.

Baker isn't better than Hurts and he's a mental midget.

Baker is a starter in this league.  Hurts is not.  A 2023 3rd pick for him is a no brainer especially since it his last year of his contract.  We could actually be somewhat fun to watch this year.

Exactly, I'm not a Baker fan by any stretch, but a 2023 conditional 3rd is a no brainier.

I feel no connection to Cox at all. And I will claim to be the earliest Cox fan on these boards. I also had him as my top target that year when not many others did even if he was on their list.

He just hasnt really done anythng to endear himself to fans imo. He was very good. But he rarely had big sack seasons. Most of the time he was affecting the game by occupying double teams. A lot of that is the fault of various coaching staffs that failed to use him to his potential. And to his credit, he was dominant in anything he was asked to do. But aside from his slightly disappointing stats, he just doesnt put his personality out there much for the fans. 

I dont see him making many/any? public appearances. I dont see him doing press conferences or many interviews. I dont recall hearing about any impassioned speeches to the team from a leadership standpoint. Mostly, the only story about Cox is his infidelity. 

Ive been glad to have him. But hes diminishing and I feel no affinity towards him. I wont mind whenever he goes. Unlike Dawkins, and soon, Kelce.

If we traded for Baker, would we have to draft another running back to replace Hurts 😂

Hurts and a 3rd for Baker

Probably have to give them a 2nd to get them to take Hurts.

 

Count me a "No" on Mayfield.  Really good arm talent but too much like Jay Cutler above the shoulders.

Would be amazing if Georgia state could pull it off. Doubt it as Gonzaga tends to start pulling away due to style of play in second half of games 

Gonzaga should be out for blood this year. Is this the year Few finally wins it....? I think they have a tougher road this year then last season

Hurts is on a 2nd round rookie deal, I don’t get it

I would rather trade 4 1st round picks for Watson than a 3rd for Baker

F it. Just get rid of the wannabe qb

What don't you get?  He can't see or throw.

Don't know how trustworthy this source is, would be a terrible decision by Watson.

Hurts sucks so bad we would have to increase the draft pick compensation to get a team to take him.

Listen Baker isn't great, but he's better than Hurts.

That’s not my point. He would be a great backup QB for the price. Backup QBs are making 7 mil+. They would gladly take him for a year or two, wouldn’t be a burden.

Watson to the Falcons
