So let me get this straight so that I understand...
Denver had a quarterback it didn't want
Cutler didn't want to be in denver
and somehow they convinced a team to give them two first round picks, a third round pick and a starting QB?

2 #1s was steep, but they haven't been drafting well with those picks anyway.

The whole "we would have wasted those picks anyway" is such a cop out.I know there was a bidding war going on but if you outbid the Skins you might have paid too much.

Denver is now sitting on a gold mine....
IF they don't draft busts.. this will go down as one of the most lopsided deals in NFL history. This is of Herschel Walker proportions....

after seeing this deal, i have to think the pats got taken to the cleaners
I realise that I have a past to break with--an accumulation of inertia, wrong, foolishness, rot, junk. A great need of clarification, of mindfulness, or rather, of no mind. A need to return to genuine practice, right effort. Need to push on the great doubt. Need for the spirit. Hang on to the clear light.

Belichick said he could have got a little bit more if he waited, but he wanted to be done with it.

yeah, and he's only under contract for one more year as well, where Cutler is reasonably signed for I think 3 more years.
of course, people "in the know" like snarg will insist the pats got taken to the cleaners.

Everyone knows they dealt him to the cheifs to keep the GM from talking about how the pats cheated.
