We need a QB for the be future and a good backup!

When is Alexander's contract up?  I think FA27?  This is all very easy: right before the GC it "leaks out" that WFC is willing to pay Alexander $100k above any other bidder PLUS $200k in MMM funny money.

Boom.  Problem solved.  Lock him for 3, then re-up for another 3.  Keep him the highest paid QB.  We've spent much (but not all) of the dynasty years paying Zach the highest QB salary in the league, especially when you back out other teams MMM cheating.  Mafia is more than prepared to pay more than everyone else for QB talent.  And Alexander is a future superstar and perennial GC winner.[/]

I dunno about that.  He's showed talent but the only thing he's has proven thus far is that he is injured more than he plays.

Imagine if all you had to do to sign your QB1 was to do some tampering and make a few phone calls.

Can't believe no one thought of the before.

No tampering.  Just a "leak".  Oops, someone leaked it, the water boy did, he's fired, all good.  Welcome, Alexander!

And they don't even have to say "Alexander".  Just say "WFC has decided to pay the future league top QB $X + $Y MMM".  If someone assumes "Alexander", that's on them!

We already have a tampering period before free agency. You're trying to find solutions for problems that are theories only.

Alexander is on a 3 year contract, this is year one.Unlike us, mtrl has been doing s very good job in locking up key players early (they just extended Snead for 2 years)
 Im not sure its just for job security but Walters insists on waiting as long as he can ,except for an aging qb whose performance is on downswing.
 I would be surprised if hes here next year

If Zach retires, we can recruit a QB starter.

If he holds onto his deal and makes it to camp, we are doomed to get a m'eh backup from the available pool, and if Zach decides in camp that he can't go for the season, and just collects hi guaranteed money, kiss 2026 (and a LOT of STH's) goodbye.

This teams has the benefit of loyal fans and sells out every game.  That will not continue if they m'eh out the rest of the season.

There needs to be changes that signal to the fans they are doing something.

My ST's are 80/20 likely to not be renewed at this time, and THAT says a lot.

Walters, MOS, the ball is in your court.

I got stuck reading your first line over and over again because I couldn't believe anyone would think this is a possibility.   Recruit a starter???  Yes please!!!

It says very little if you're bailing at the first sign of trouble after years of unprecedented success, actually.
