Flynn alreadt being mentioned for trade

[rbaloha1]

Lets trade him. MM is good at developing qbs -- another is lurking in the late rounds. Also must bring in a veteran qb.

let's unload him and then real soon after Arod can have his next career ending concussion. That way DD can run our team

Well, how much are you going to pay him to extend his contract to be the backup? The reason to trade him is not that we don't need a backup QB, it's that his contract expires after the 2011 season and if he's a UFA he will almost certainly not be able to be retained by the Packers. Might as well get something for him while you can, right? A 2011 2nd is a lot more valuable to the Packers than a 2013 3rd (which is the max compensatory they'd get for losing Flynn in free agency).

Joe Montana was on the Dan Patrick Show mentioning when his son was being recruited by Stanford that Harbaugh used the exact same plays and terminology as Coach Walsh. Obviously wanted his son to attend Stanford.

Combine with a power running game (something MM has failed to install consistently) and Harbaugh's wco shall work in the NFL. Haurbaugh's offense is what MM has failed to do. Maybe MM can learn Haurbaugh's running plays.

So M3's offense is deficient?

Or keep him and settle for a compensatory pick.

Its good. Need more consistent running though.

Depends on what you can get for him. The most you can get for him in a compensatory is a 2013 third round pick, by common reckoning that's worth roughly a 2011 5th round pick. If you could get, say, a 2nd round draft pick for Flynn this year, you'd have to really consider that wouldn't you?

[Scott Campbell]

A second rounder?

Done!

Nice recall Ballhawk. I went and looked him up and it was just that one start for Jax (versus the Ravens) in 1997 before his Buffalo deal.

Doesn't ballhawk claim to have been like 4 years old in 1997?

[Bretsky]

REALITY CHECK; we aren't getting much for him this year; teams are looking to move other QB's

we might garner a 4th IMO and I think we're better off keeping him for that

Two years as an NFL QB coach and now he is guaranteed to run a top 5 offense in the NFL?

He might want to find a QB first.

That's why I was checking him. I thought he was wrong.

The Seahawks gave up a 3rd round pick for Charlie Whitehurst last offseason, and Whitehurst had never actually appeared in an NFL game at the time. The need for QBs so vastly outstrips the demand, the prices for these things are ridiculous.

Matt Cassell was had for a 2nd.

[Bretsky]

but there weren't many QB's on the block last year. There are three legit 1st rounders coming out of the draft, the Skins are going to dump McNabb, and Vince Young is free. I doubt there is a high demmand for Flynn
