There was just an article in the NYT about an apartment building in NYC that just installed a device that captures the carbon emissions from it's furnace, which then gets shipped out to a concrete company.

I'd assume the NYT wouldn't have run a story like that unless they verified the efficacy of the device. Not to mention it was installed to avoid fines from the city due to the building's emissions, so there's no point in doing that unless you can show to the regulatory body in the city that you are, in fact, reducing emissions.

Jets definitely seem like a quality landing spot. They might not be SB bound just by adding a competent QB, but if they had one this year, they'd have at least made them playoffs.

If I'm him, I want to go to TB, NYJ, NO, maybe WAS but I they claim to not be looking for a QB. Somewhere that isn't in a full rebuild and has some talent on offense.

I'd want to stay away from Carolina, Indy, Atlanta. Places that need to blow up the whole team.

I don't think so. It's not like Vegas was bereft of talent at WR Adams, Renfrow, Waller, Jacobs. I get that were hurt a lot this year, but he had talent around him.

I'm not arguing Dak is a world beater, but if we're picking teams in the schoolyard, I'm taking Dak every single time.

Dak's deal might be slightly above market rate, but it's not outrageous. He's getting $44.2m next year.

Kirk Cousins is getting $36.25.

Carr is due $40m unless he goes FA and signs for less, but I think he gets at least $30m.

There's almost no one below Dak's AAV that I'm taking over him that isn't on a rookie contract. Cousins might be the only one and that's debatable.

Dak is a top 10 QB. No doubt. Is he an elite QB that can truly carry a team a la Mahomes, Burrow, et al? No, but he's certainly a well above average QB.

Carr is at best a middle third guy. I'd take him over Daniel Jones, but not before Kirk Cousins. Plus he's older than Dak.

Dallas fucked up by signing Elliot before they locked in Dak's deal. The QB market was reset in that time and Dallas lost value by waiting. Now they have Elliot locked up to a contract that pays him like an elite RB when he's average at best. At least Dak is still better than most staying QBs.

I think this is more about having more options for landing spots. Teams likely not willing to give up much in a trade for him given the circumstances, so there's probably not many suitors currently.

As a FA he can take his pick of any team in search of a competent QB such as NO, NYJ, CAR, HOU, INDY, WAS, TB, ATL. He can probably pick his spot if he's willing to be flexible with his contract.
