Is Trey Lance on the move?

4/20/2023

0 Comments

 
Picture

The San Francisco 49ers have been taking calls from teams asking about QB Trey Lance. While that's as far as the process goes, teams calling about his availability before the draft is significant. Brock Purdy is likely to be the starter whenever he is fully recovered from his elbow injury that he sustained in the NFC Championship Game. The Niners also have QB Sam Darnold on the roster.

Two intriguing landing spots for Lance could be the Tennessee Titans and Houston Texans, as he's familiar with Titans GM Ran Carthon and Titans head coach DeMeco Ryans.

A report states the Minnesota Vikings were one of the teams to speak to Lance at this year's scouting combine. There were also rumors swirling around that time about a potential Kirk Cousins trade, so this may be something to keep an eye on.

more Qb news:

  • Deshaun Watson didn't participate in last season's offseason program and Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski says he thinks he'll be better in 2023 after a full offseason. "Certainly, for Deshaun to have that season under his belt, those experiences and be able to learn from everything that's happened last year, into the past, I think he'll be a better player for it." Maybe, hear me out, he shouldn't have done what he did to earn his suspension, then?
  • CJ Stroud visited the Atlanta Falcons on Wednesday.
  • Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes worked out with one of the top WR prospects on Wednesday. Boston College receiver Zay Flowers traveled to Texas to work out with Mahomes at the request of the team. Imagine getting that call when you think your visits are over. The Chiefs will likely have to trade up to get Flowers, however, as he's one of the top prospects in this year's NFL Draft.
  • Andy Dalton signed with the Carolina Panthers this offseason, knowing he'd be sitting behind the No. 1 pick. While it's looking like it's going to be Bryce Young, Dalton said of the young QB, "Size hasn't mattered to him. He's still been able to make the throws you need to make."
  • Sam Howell is supposed to be (key word: supposed to be) the starter for the Washington Commanders in 2023 and is determined to take advantage of the opportunity. "That's what I've been trying to do ever since I got here is to get this opportunity. So, I'm definitely going to try to do everything I can to take advantage of it."

Eagles ink Jalen Hurts to new mega-deal

The first of the quarterback extensions has dropped. The Philadelphia Eagles signed QB Jalen Hurts to a five-year, $255 million extension to kick off the week.

The #Eagles and Jalen Hurts agreed to terms on a five-year, $255 million contract extension that makes him the highest-paid player in NFL history, sources tell me and @RapSheet.@AgentNicoleLynn negotiated the deal, which includes $179.304M in guarantees and a no-trade clause. pic.twitter.com/NsLzULcE1M

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) April 17, 2023
The Eagles were adamant that getting an extension done for Hurts was a priority this offseason. It comes at the perfect time, as Hurts is heading into his final year of his rookie contract.

The extension includes $179.304 million in guarantees, a no-trade clause, and up to $15 million in additional incentives.

On the heels of a Super Bowl appearance and an MVP-caliber season, it'll be interesting to see how Hurts rebounds in 2023. With a strong core on the roster, the Eagles are set up for success with Hurts.

I talk more about Hurts' deal and what it means for the other QBs in line for an extension in Monday's Patreon episode.

more QB news:

  • With pre-draft visits continuing through Wednesday, Florida quarterback Anthony Richardson will meet with the Tennessee Titans, Atlanta Falcons, and Baltimore Ravens this week. The Titans is the most intriguing one, as they are rumored to be one of the teams who would be most likely to trade up to the No. 3 spot - potentially to grab Richardson. Atlanta picks at No. 8, and the Ravens could be looking for a replacement for Lamar Jackson, should he not sign the franchise tag.
  • Speaking of Jackson, he is not expected to attend Baltimore's voluntary offseason program, as he hasn't signed the tag. No reason to panic now, but if he does not attend mandatory workouts and/or minicamp, we can start to wonder if he will attend training camp this summer.
  • Last season, the Kansas City Chiefs began their offseason program virtually, and they're doing the same in 2023. QB Patrick Mahomes has gathered teammates in Texas to work out together as they check in with coaches and other personnel via Zoom.
  • Bryce Young has canceled his remaining pre-draft visits. Young has already visited with the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans, which is likely where he'll be selected next week.
    • Young is now an overwhelming favorite to be drafted first overall.

  • Betting odds suggest Georgia QB Stetson Bennett will go undrafted.
  • Los Angeles Chargers QB Justin Herbert had shoulder surgery (in his non-throwing arm) to repair a torn labrum this offseason. While he's made progress and has worked on stretching in rehab, his participation in OTAs isn't a sure thing, yet. "We're going to listen to the doctors," head coach Brandon Staley said.
  • Zach Wilson was present for the first day of New York Jets offseason workouts.

The Panthers have also met with Florida's Anthony Richardson and Bryce Young from Alabama and have attended all of the top prospects' Pro Days.

Carolina will have their choie of quarterbacks with the first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft in two weeks. Young is currently the favorite, but we all know it's #lyingseason.

more qb news:

  • With the Aaron Rodgers trade still on standby, it leaves everyone wondering exactly what the Green Bay Packers are asking in return. Apparently, they're still holding onto getting a first-round pick in 2024. The New York Jets may not be in on that gamble, considering Rodgers may not even be playing in '24.
  • The NFL and NFLPA approved a QB-specific helmet designed to cut down on concussions. The helmet is designed to protect the part of the head that QBs hit on the ground, which was responsible for about half the concussions suffered by QBs. "This helmet performs better in laboratory testing than any helmets we have ever seen for these sorts of impacts."
  • QB prospect Anthony Richardson wrote a piece for The Player's Tribune, which is worth a read. In it, he addresses his critics: "I know the things people are picking apart. People talk about whether I can be accurate. They say I don't have touch. They say I can't throw short. They say a lot of things. All I gotta say is: Watch how hard I work."
  • Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes was named one of Time's Most Influential People of 2023.
  • The saga continues. Despite many thinking the arrival of WR Odell Beckham Jr. to the Baltimore Ravens would be a slam dunk to QB Lamar Jackson either playing on the franchise tag or signing a long-term deal with the team in 2023, Beckham says he was given no assurances to Jackson remaining on the team. "My thoughts would be that he would be here."
  • The New England Patriots signed QB Trace McSorley to a one-year contract. McSorley is familiar with new Pats OC Bill O'Brien.
  • The Arizona Cardinals tried out QB Jeff Driskel for some reason.
  • Dorian Thompson-Robinson has visited the Cincinnati Bengals, Los Angeles Chargers, Cleveland Browns, San Francisco 49ers, Las Vegas Raiders, and Philadelphia Eagles. Thompson-Robinson is expected to be a late-round pick.

Bailey Zappe ready to compete for starting job

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has refused to say who the starting quarterback will be come September and rumors have been swirling all offseason that Mac Jones is on the outs with the team. The potential savior? Bailey Zappe. Zappe says he's ready for the challenge come training camp.

Bailey Zappe spoke today between drills as the @PatsFoundation held a youth football clinic at Naval Station Newport. He was asked by @NBC10_Joe about his mindset entering OTA’a and competing at quarterback. pic.twitter.com/VB1Lz7tRsf

— Bob Socci (@BobSocci) April 12, 2023

Zappe played four games last season and you could argue that he looked better amidst the Matt Patricia Experiment than Jones did. Zappe threw five touchdowns and three interceptions, with a 100.9 passer rating.

It's a small sample size, but if the Patriots are serious about opening up a competition this summer, Zappe is ready for it.

More qb news:

  • Adam Schefter said on his podcast that an Aaron Rodgers trade doesn't seem likely before the draft. While both the New York Jets and the Green Bay Packers intend for Rodgers to be on the Jets' roster in 2023, Rodgers' massive contract and the proper compensation appear to be the reason for the holdup.
    • Speaking of the Packers, what will life be like in Green Bay sans Rodgers? Offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins says it'll be noticeably different, but they should be fine. "Obviously 12 is a Hall of Fame player and we don't know what we're going to get out of Jordan [Love], but either way it goes, I feel like going forward, we'll be good."
  • Bryce Young is the current betting favorite to be the No. 1 pick.
    • Young visited with the Houston Texans on Wednesday.

  • Kentucky QB Will Levis met with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Wednesday and will head up one state to meet with the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday. Levis has visited most QB-needy teams. The Falcons currently have the No. 8 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
  • Arizona Cardinals backup QB Colt McCoy is expected to be limited in offseason work, due to a procedure he had this offseason. Head coach Jonathan Gannon gave an update this week. "Colt, he's doing great. He gets a little extra work here and there but he's ready to go." McCoy's health is important due to starter Kyler Murray still recovering from last year's torn ACL.
    • As far as McCoy's next job once he's done with football? USFL has hired him as an analyst. McCoy said, "I have to study up on the rules - their rules are a little bit different - and I have to learn the players, the coaches, the teams. It's a little bit different than what we do in the NFL, but I'm excited, and I think it's a great opportunity working with some great people at NBC."

Did the Patriots Really shop Mac Jones?

Bill Belichick hasn't yet committed to QB Mac Jones starting for the New England Patriots in 2023. I think he's just being Belichick, but others seem to think the tension between the two is real.

Tom E. Curran reveals that Coach Belichick was really pissed off at Mac Jones for going outside the building for advice on how to run the offense.

Curran also believes Brian Hoyer was released because he was against the system like Mac. pic.twitter.com/ZC3URuwdQw

— Jones & Mego with Arcand (@JonesandMego) March 31, 2023
We all saw Jones scream on the sideline many times, frustrated. As he had a right to when you make your defensive coordinator your offensive coordinator (?). Jones wasn't bad his rookie season and then went through a dramatic second year as a pawn in the Matt Patricia experiment.

I know Belichick is controlling, but he's not dumb. Let Jones have another year with an actual OC before you ship him off elsewhere.

Speaking of, a report also surfaced on Tuesday that Belichick shopped Jones to teams including Washington, Tennessee and Vegas. I'm not so sure about that.

more QB news:

  • The Atlanta Falcons are determined to stick with second-year QB Desmond Ridder in 2023. He has the support of the team, including new teammate Calais Campbell. "If Ridder continues to develop to be who I think he can be, I wouldn't be surprised we're playing in late January and potentially February." Let's not over-do it, Calais.
  • The Washington Commanders will visit with Tennessee QB Hendon Hooker.
    • Hooker will also visit with the Green Bay Packers and the Titans this week.
  • Florida QB Anthony Richardson will meet with the Baltimore Ravens, Tennessee Titans, and Atlanta Falcons for pre-draft visits/workouts.
  • Veteran QB Brian Hoyer signed a two-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. He'll be Jimmy Garoppolo's backup.

Chargers not losing sleep over Justin herbert extension

The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to sign QB Justin Herbert to a long-term contract extension ASAP. And, according to General Manager Tom Telesco, he's earned it. (He has.)

"I don't have an update on it. There's a lot that will go into it, obviously, with these types of contracts and the amount of numbers that it's going to be. It's just a good problem to have to know you have a franchise quarterback that's now moving into a veteran franchise quarterback. There are a lot of good things that come with that... I know the numbers are going to be big."

.@chargers GM Tom Telesco breaks down the latest with LA's offseason, including a future contract extension for QB Justin Herbert...

more qb news:

  • After struggling in his second season, Mac Jones doesn't appear to be a lock to start for the New England Patriots in 2023. I'm kind of overreacting, I totally think he'll be the starter in 2023. But if you ask head coach Bill Belichick, you may not get a straight answer. "Everybody will get a chance to play. We'll play the best players," Belichick said when asked if there will be a QB competition between Jones and backup Bailey Zappe.
  • Going into his fifth NFL season, New York Giants QB Daniel Jones has a flashy new contract to show for it and the chance to get even better. "We have a lot of confidence in Daniel and just to see his work ethic and his commitment get rewarded like that was a pretty cool thing," owner John Mara said. "As I said yesterday to the media, I think there's no limit as to how high he can climb if we put the right pieces around him."
  • Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is due a contract extension soon, and owner Jeffrey Lurie is determined to keep him around for a long time. "Each franchise quarterback is different. But once you've found one, that's when you're really excited. And we'll be working with Jalen, I'm sure, for a long time."
  • The Seattle Seahawks signed QB Geno Smith to a well-earned contract extension already this offseason, but that doesn't mean they won't be looking at QB prospects in this year's draft. Seahawks' brass went to Florida QB Anthony Richardson's Pro Day last week and came back impressed. "He was really impressive," John Schneider said. "Great athlete, great young man. He has a ton of physical talent, no doubt about it."
  • Three weeks after having UCL surgery, San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy says rehab is going well so far, and that he should start throwing in three months. "The protocol is you start throwing at three months, but it all depends on how your therapy and your range of motion and everything goes up until that point. There are definitely some boxes I have to check off first before I get to that point, but that's the plan as of now."
  • The Atlanta Falcons have said they're not interested in QB Lamar Jackson and that they plan to stick with Desmond Ridder, who is heading into his second season. Head coach Arthur Smith defends this decision (or tries to): "He won a lot of games in college and helped Luke Fickell at Cincinnati really change the whole culture of that program." Oh, okay. Well in that case!
  • Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen has taken a lot of hits and is known for being somewhat reckless during games, but there's a shred of that that makes Allen who he is. Former Bills QB Jim Kelly says Allen doesn't have to do everything himself for the Bills to be successful. "Josh can't do everything himself, and I hope they find a way to get a star running back."

Aaron Rodgers has a wish list now

If Aaron Rodgers is going to play for the New York Jets, he wants to do it his own way, and with some of his friends. Rodgers has given the Jets a 'Wish List' of players he wants the team to target and/or sign, because of course he has. The list includes former teammates Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis, best friend Randall Cobb, and Odell Beckham Jr.

Aaron Rodgers has provided the NY Jets with a wish-list of free agents he would like them to target and acquire, per sources.
It includes Randall Cobb, Allen Lazard, Marcedes Lewis and….Odell Beckham Jr.

— Dianna Russini (@diannaESPN) March 14, 2023
One of them is already checked off the list - Lazard signed a four-year, $44 million contract with New York on Tuesday. The rest? Unsure, although the Jets did attend an open workout that OBJ held in Arizona late last week.

The Jets also have Offensive Rookie of the Year Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, Corey Davis, and Denzel Mims in their wide receiver room. Not bad. So why does Rodgers want all these older guys in the room, unless he's on a complete power trip? He's already holding two teams hostage during the peak of free agency - the Jets and the team that is hoping to trade him, the Green Bay Packers. Neither can do much until there's a resolution.

Hopefully one is coming soon, as Rodgers is scheduled to appear on his friend, Pat McAfee's show on Wednesday at 1pm.

more QB news:

  • The New Orleans Saints re-signed QB Jameis Winston, presumably to back up new signing Derek Carr. The deal is worth "up to" $8 million, which he likely won't see unless Carr gets injured.
  • The Buffalo Bills restructured QB Josh Allen's contract, along with LB Von Miller's, creating up to $32 million in cap space.
  • The Atlanta Falcons will sign QB Taylor Heinicke to a two-year contract, worth up to $20 million. I predict he'll compete with second-year QB Desmond Ridder for the starting job, as his contract contains high-end backup money, laden with incentives for starts.
  • The Minnesota Vikings restructured QB Kirk Cousins' contract, creating $16 milion in cap space.
    • The Minnesota Vikings willre-sign backup QB Nick Mullens, who was on their roster last season.
  • The Indianapolis Colts plan to release QB Matt Ryan by Friday. Ryan was benched twice this past season, and will save $17.2 million against the Colts' cap. Ryan has also won zero Super Bowls.
  • The Carolina Panthers, while owning the No. 1 pick, are signing QB Andy Dalton to be the veteran backup to whomever they choose. Dalton's deal includes $8 million guaranteed and another $7 million in incentives, presumably for playing time.

Derek Carr has found his new home. Carr is signing a four-year deal with the New Orleans Saints.

The #Saints are closing in on a deal with QB David Carr, sources tell me and @RapSheet. After nine seasons with the #Raiders, the four-time Pro Bowl selection is headed to New Orleans.

The first QB domino is about to fall and one NFC South team has its starter. pic.twitter.com/nuLSAhncLQ

— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) March 6, 2023
The Saints were the first to show interest in Carr, even proposing a trade before he was released from the Las Vegas Raiders. Carr is a noticeable boost from last year's Andy Dalton Experiment and should considerably boost wide receiver Chris Olave's production.

The best nod for Carr, however, is that he gets out of the toughest division in football - playing Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert twice a year - to one of the easiest, where he's currently the best QB in the division. How long that will last is to be seen. Carolina seems set on drafting a QB, while the Falcons and Bucs could explore trade options for vet QBs.

The numbers?

The #Saints & Derek Carr agreed on a 4-yr deal for $150M with $100M in total guarantees, per me & @MikeGarafolo. He gets $70M effectively fully guaranteed ($60M at signing, another $10M in Year 3 vesting after Year 1). Carr structures his deal to accommodate Saints’ cap issues. pic.twitter.com/vs6qaBh7rg
