    We should just draft Mariota and trade Mett :)

    ..... for what? I'd trade Mett and our 2nd round pick for Drew Brees but only if we can immediately fire Whis and bring in Gus Malhzahn.

    Then we have to go RT in the 3rd round.

    I like the idea of keeping Met and trading for Rivers but the deals rumoured are crap. Some are saying we'd give up the #2 in a straight swap for Rivers.

    No way I'd take that deal. They want Mariota we get their #17 and their #48. We should not be seen as he team in need in a deal with the Chargers.

    My preferred choice for us not to get shafted is to stick with Mett and trade down for more picks.

    If we trade for only Rivers and the 17th pick we are going to look like idiots. Trading away a potential franchise player for an old(although elite) QB with back problems and maybe 3 years left in him, tops, just so we can pretend we don't completely suck for a few years and then be stuck in the same spot again.

    If we were only a QB away from a super bowl, I'd say yes. But we are way worse than that, keep Mett this year and if they really want Rivers go after him when his contract expires. We need all the picks we can get and then some.

    It's hard to ever say that a team is a QB away from a Super Bowl, but I think we are a QB away from making the playoffs, even with the team we have right now, and that's not because of the talent we have on the team but because of how important QB is on the field.

    Look at the teams that made the Championship games.. Green Bay, Seattle, New England, Indianappolis. I don't think any of those teams would make playoffs without their QB. Not even Seattle.

    So ok, how about hard to say an ELITE qb away. Because this team is more than just a "good" qb away from the playoffs. Did you watch it at all last season? Line, both sides were jokes, no rb, no wr's, the mvp was a TE for goodness sake or the punter. That is how sad it was. Tom Freaking Brady would have been 8-8 with that team.

    so we give #2 and a 2nd for Rivers and a 3rd and Chargers get Bradford, a first and our 2nd rounder.
    I'd say pass on that.

    No way we give up a second rounder for this...that just does not make sense and I think is a bad deal.

    The Chargers would walk away golden....getting WAY too much for that deal. We come out worst of the three in my opinion....which I guess means its likely to happen....
