Didn't Lynn say somewhere that he like QBs with mobility? Rosen doesn't fit that at all.
Rosen

Teams have carried 3 QBs in the past. Saints classify Hill as a TE but he had packages. Brees, Hill, Teddy. Its not out of the realm of possibility that even without Rosen we see some Tyrod packages. Its really only one year. You sacrifice a little cap. A roster spot for potentially a franchise QB?
New stadium in LA. New LA QB? Could be a new fan element they are thinking about.

But we also want to be competitive year in and year out...no rebuilding, no trading away half a draft to scramble and get River's replacement when he hangs em up. I mean, what happens if he takes a nasty hit, and jacks up that back of his? Hard to think about, but anything can happen in this league.
If we don't make a play for Rosen, I won't even blink...I love my draft picks! But if our staff likes the situation enough to spend a second, and maybe a late pick to sweeten the deal, I would certainly understand and support it as a possibly shrewd move for the future of the team.
As far as Rosen's rookie campaign, I really didn't think he did all that bad, all things considered...even flashed at times...and he was surrounded by trash. I don't question his talent...just whether his attitude is right for coming here under Rivers...and I would assume we would be careful to ensure it would be a good situation for all involved, before we made the move.
The TPB makes plans....And Jim Harbaugh laughs...
Final prediction: Latham OT, Colson LB, Sainristil CB,Rice WR, Zinter OG, Nourzad OC, MacLachlan TE, Vidal RB, Lovett DT

Didn't even consider Tyrod as part of the trade...even more interesting.
Probably nothing comes of it...but god, I love this time of year, and all the shit flying around!!lol:Cheers1:The TPB makes plans....And Jim Harbaugh laughs...

Still believe winning is King.
But just talking about Rosen today has created dialogue between us 3. We are talking Bolts. So its good that we are discussing them in a really down time of year for most fans. Especially the ones that dont follow the draft.
You have to kick the tires on Rosen if you have a guy like Rivers on your team. Just like the Pats and Giants are doing with their aging QBs.
I would love to get a franchise QB without having to use 3 1st round picks. I dont know if Rosen is that guy. I just want the transition from Rivers to be smooth and not cost an arm and a leg.

Even if it did not work out. Trading a bottom of 2nd rd pick for QB that was 10th overall last year to sit behind Rivers is a good bet, imo. Considering if Chargers continue to win games they won't have a top 10 pick to use on QB unless they have a terrible season under Lynn. Finding QB in later rds does happen, but in general the great QB prospects are off the board top15.
This type of opportunity does not happen.
Again, even If it did not work out, imo its a good risk to take.
Do it TT!Who has it better than us?

.
You'd like to think he'd give the team a nod when he's thinking this is it so they can plan accordingly. Obviously he can change his mind and play on, but if it's the case he's thinking one more go then he's helping the team by telling them, but I guess it's also not his problem in a sense because only a player who is not sure what he'll do.

But it was a damn good question by blueman.

Insurance? Ties to Lynn?
I'd lean towards both. Taylor gives us a QB that has started on a team that made it to the play offs, and he's also someone that our head coach knows. I'd also throw in the insurance he gives us if Rivers retires because he's an ideal bridge quarterback until we draft Rivers successor (or his drafted successor is ready if we go for someone this year).

Maybe some of River's accuracy can rub off on Tyrod.
And some of Tyrod's style rub off on Rivers, Tyrod being a fashion icon.
You see Tyrod's yellow suit at the introductory presser ?
That's just for starters.We do not play modern football.
