Interesting. We certainly have a need for a QB2. A full QB room sure got empty fast.

Ummm. Jameis anyone? Mac Jones probably fits the profile better.

$14mm for one year???

I would think the Vikings would have been in that zip code for money.

Probably thinks he has a better chance to start over Richardson than McCarthy.

Its a lonely QB room right now for JJ.

So, Gardner Minshew anyone? Or Drew Lock? I would love to see Carson Wentz as an NDSU homer get a chance to go to KOC’s QB Uni, but I think Minshew would be the best get.

SKOL VIKINGS :P

My thoughts were sit in Minnesota for 1 year. Learn, get confindence back and see if an opportunity presents it self with all the weapons the Vikings have. Now he will go to Indy... Richardson will suck, Dimes will come in and suck too.. No one will touch him after that.

Minshew, Wentz, Winston all would be acceptable. No to Mac Jones, that's just embarrassing.

If we were not signing Jones, I think we should have kept Mullens, he has been in offense for years, knows the system and would be just as good as any of the retreads we can possibly bring in.

Mac Jones and Jamies are odd ducks, don't see their personalities being a fit with KOC or the QB room. Wentz has rumors of an ego and being aloof to teammates and Rodgers is a freakin' weirdo now. Don't think I'd want any of them near JJ as mentors.

Minshew is a character, but he seems to care about football. Might be the best option and he has experience as a starter. I don't know at this point...

I know its just QB2, but with a rook QB? They gotta get this right.

The #Colts are now preparing for an open quarterback competition between Daniel Jones and Anthony Richardson, who is healthy and has no plans to seek a trade, his agent Deiric Jackson told me.

Said Jackson: “AR will be ready to roll.”

Exciting times for Colts fans:

Wow.  And not much in the way of protection anymore either.

Aint it the truth?

AR gotta be on the phone with Stroud right about now...

It just makes 0 sense, even though the Colts GM is known for frugality.

Maybe its all about being awful for Arch???
