All 4 agreed that teams would be foolish to pick him up for 2 #1s. One panalist did say that a team like Seattle should consider it. They seemed to agree that only a quarterback should be signed as a restricted free agent.

Should probably say franchise player?

And yeah, only guys that would be worth 2 1sts are Brady, Brees, and Rodgers(Manning is too old, and Brees and Brady will be soon too). Maybe Russel and Luck, or some team may think Cam and/or Kap are.

And that's part of the reason why. There are so few truly great QBs in a game that is so heavily slanted to QBs.

You don't think teams like Cincinnati, Arizona and Buffalo would give up 2 1st rounders for Manning? Even if it is just a short term? With defenses like they have it would put them over the top as far as their chance to make a really nice playoff run.

I'd put the % at higher than a team giving up 2 1sts for Graham.

It would literally be the mortgaging of a franchise's future for a 1(maybe 2 at best) year shot at the title. Extremely unlikely especially since in 2 years in Denver(who had a great D right before he got there) he has yet to win it.

No it would not. Two first rounders is nothing to teams that know how to get picks back. Rams and pats always know how to get multiple picks. Rams could give us the thirteen pick still keep there second pick of the draft this year trade it to the falcons and they will still land Sammy Watkins at the six pick. Giving them a very explosive offense to go with there up and coming defense. And they will get a lot from the falcons to move back. They would not need there first next year if they can build what they are missing now and that's an offense. Imaging graham, zac Stacy, Watkins, Austin and Jared cook. That could be touch for defensive teams in that division to handle.
