Jay Cutler involved in trade discussions?
Say what you want about the MSM, Adam Schefter is as plugged in to the NFL, and specifically the Denver Broncos, than anyone, anywhere. When he says something I tend to at least perk up my ears. That's why his story about the Broncos possibly talking a Jay Cutler trade with the Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Bucs is so intriguing.
While I have little doubt that that Lions approached the Broncos, and I have little doubt that the Broncos "entertained" the thought, as Schefter says, I do have some doubt that the Broncos would have ever made such a deal. Let's face it, Matt Cassel is a nice quarterback, but he is not Jay Cutler....PERIOD.
I know Cassel had some success in New England last year, and I know he is familiar with Josh McDaniels offense. It takes more than that to make me trade my franchise quarterback. Let's not forget that the Patriots drafted a QB last year(Kevin O'Connell to essentially replace Cassel, and there was some question if Cassel would even make the Patriots out of Training Camp. Cassel did guide the Patriots to an 11-5 record, but he struggled mightily against good defensive teams(Indianapolis, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Miami) and I think the folks in Kansas City are about to find out that Cassel may not even be as talented as the guy they are replacing Tyler Thigpen.
I have had my beefs with some of Cutler's antics, and I have questioned his play at times. There is NO DOUBT, however, that Jay Cutler has the talent to be one of the top 3 or 4 quarterbacks in the game. Cassel, by being named a starter, is one of the best 32, by default, but on a bad team, with bad talent, and questionable coaching, I seriously doubt he will take that next step.
I know Cutler's feathers were likely ruffled by hearing these "rumors", but the fact is, every player, on every team, is discussed at some point. It doesn't mean there were any type of negotiations, or that the Broncos didn't simply hang up on the Lions. Cutler should know the game, and fret not. He is going to be a Denver Bronco for a long time.

What is it you hear when I speak in your ear.
how can we even speculate at this point?
Do we really think McD is spending his time worrying about Jay and vice versa? Jay should be enjoying the off-season while McD should be popping another 5-hour energy drink before putting in another 24 hour day.

But I don’t know why Detroit or Tampa would call Denver if they didn’t think it might happen, it’s not like they are saying they are trading for Brady or Manning

It is a tactical thought...
If I were the front office of Detroit, I would ask the question also.
There is a saying in the Army: “you miss 100% of the shots you do not take”. If you have nothing, why not at leat ask about getting Cutler? The worst the Broncos could say is “no” (with any colorful language you would like to put with it.
just saying, I would ask if I was them.

Guys...chill....
This stuff happens, and we should be stoked that Cutler is regarded so highly. No way would Xanders or Jedi trade him, but in the game, you have to at least listen. Its called business, and it is a way of forging relationships. BUsiness is all about this.

Well sombody needs to talk to jay !
lets remember he is still needs to mature . so mabey someone should go to him now . Or should
have went to him earlier and explained things to him To prevent him flying off the handle with anger.

Sounds more like they want Jay out because of coaching conflict, ala when Elway was rumored to be traded to the Redskins because of Reeves.

"Duffman is thrusting in the direction of the problem" - Duffman
Get a grip
Cutler is what made coming here so attractive in the first place. Elway didn’t like playing for Reeves because he tied his hands. Cutler is going to love playing for McDaniels. The only news here is the media trying to create some to report (they’re all whores that way), and some Denver fans habitually overreacting.

For everyone out there who’s panicking, ask yourself this, why would the Broncos sign Dawkins only to trade your franchise QB and concede to a total rebuilding project (since there’s no QB in this draft worth a piss, nor can we get anywhere near equal value in return). Not only that, you’d pretty screw any chance of resigning BMarsh IMO.

Highlight the part
and only the part, that you want to quote, then click on the quote sign above the box. Then click on “preview” below the box to see what the result looks like. If it looks okay then click on “post” beneath the preview to actually post it. (I never post without previewing. It gives me a chance to catch typos as well as other errors.) If you’re doing it by hand type “blockquote” (enclosing that word with < and > rather than " and “) at the start of the quoted passage, then "/blockquote” (ditto) at the end. Don’t leave out the slash. If you do the second “blockquote” will be interpreted as the beginning of a quote, hence your response will be boxed inside the gray quote block as a quote within a quote, exactly as you got. Even if you aren’t doing it by hand you can examine the result in the input box to see why the preview looks like it does if it doesn’t look right.

by gnarlybroncodude on Feb 28, 2009 2:56 PM MST up reply actions
You are obviously correct
People need to read more closely. There’s a difference between shopping Cutler and answering the phone. And if you want to preserve future working relationships you politely “consider” the trade before declining. What McDaniels has probably learned from this is to let Jay know right away that an inquiry has been received but that he’s not interested, then when Jay gives a press conference it’ll squelch rumors instead of feeding them. Jay will be flattered that other teams want him, and won’t feel that his own doesn’t.

Everyone is saying Xanders and McD listened and have no intent to trade him, but why would you call Denver if you didn’t think you had a chance to get him, it’s not like they are calling say Philly for McNabb which would be a much more likely scenerio, so that tells me that there is something to this.

This may well all blow over and be forgotten quickly. Jay had a strong initial reaction to the firing of Shanny, too, then came around.

Every account of this I can see says they fielded calls about trades. Then I look at the headline and it says Jay Cutler being Shopped. Fielding calls and shopping players are two very different things.

I agree with Broncoman but I get what Papamag and others are saying. Schefter could be reporting this because thist would be like the biggiest news this offseason, even bigger that Albert getting paid. He may just want to have his fingerprints on it, true or not.

This basically just ruined Cutler being here long term
I don’t see who McD repairs any relationship with Cutler, I would play out my contract and give the middle finger to McD, I am guessing that Shanahan is laughing now, cause next year he will have the job in Dallas and probably be able to get Cutler to be the QB.

McD will talk to Jay
If it’s true that he considered the idea, he’ll have to convince Jay that Cutler is wanted in Denver. Frankly, Cassel for Cutler? That’s hard to believe, but I can see why, having coached him, McD would consider the thought.

That makes no sense to me. I would have laughed out loud had someone mentioned that trade to me.

Didn't sound like Cutler for Cassel
Sounded more like Cutler for Cassel + Picks. Don’t you at least listen, just in case the other team completely fleeces itself for you? And don’t you listen respectfully, just to build solid bridges for future trades?
I would be worried if the Broncos were initiating the conversations…but everything we’ve heard from NFL Network says that Detroit and Tampa Bay were the initiators…not big deal in listening. Jay will get over it.

From Rotoworld
Cowboys traded DB Anthony Henry to the Lions for QB Jon Kitna.
The Lions did well to get help for their secondary since Kitna was going to be released shortly. Henry is stretched at cornerback, so it wouldn’t be a surprise to see the Lions try him at safety.

I love Cutler as much as anyone and don't want him traded.
But the Broncos would have been idiots to hang up the phone on any team. We have no idea what was offered. If the Lions offered up Cassell and the #1 pick, that is something that they would at least have to think about. The finances might make it unworkable, but if Cassell is a top 10 QB with McDaniels coaching him and the #1 pick could be Aaron Curry is that really a bad deal for the Broncos?

I always like the proven over the potential...
Jay Cutler has proven that he is a pro bowler and, imo, a top 5 quarterback. Even though he’s around the same age of Cassell, he’s proven more. And even though many people are calling Curry the safest pick in the draft, he still hasn’t played a snap in the NFL.

I'd say
Matt Cassell has proven himself every bit as much as Cutler. Just because it was in NE’s offense, everyone wants to take away what he accomplished. That’d be a helluva lot more valid with me if the guy behind the offense he ran wasn’t our new HC.
Cutler still has a lot of development left.

I’m interested in fielding the best football team. At this point in their careers, and especially in the new offense, Cassell has outdone Cutler.

That's all good and well
but as a QB, in the offense we’re probably installing, Cassel got it done. We have, if not a better, an equal WR corps and a superior offensive line. I know everyone around here is bustling about Cutler and all of his potential, and I’m not denying that there’s a great deal left in him, but how many crippling picks did Jay throw last year? How many drives ended in the redzone because Cutler impaled a defender? Overall, the guy threw 19 picks last year.
Let’s keep in mind my context of emphasizing “especially in this offense”.

I'd hardly say
Cassel has outdone Cutler…sure he had a winning record, but he also had a defense.
Have a good time all the time...that's my motto. - Viv Savage
He also had some pretty good stats
He had, if I remember correctly, 4 TDs and 7 picks his first few games while he was basically finding his footing, then went 17 and 4 the rest of the way. That’s pretty damned impressive and way better than Cutler’s ratio. But there were mitigating circumstances (for Jay) and I agree with broncosmontana that “Jay can be coached out of that.”

I have to agree with the others.
Why do you think Cassell has done better than Cutler? He’s only started 15 games since high school.
I respectfully disagree sir!

Jay Cutler
played through a lot of adversity and some very questionable play calling. He had no running backs. He shouldered this offense. Yes, he threw pics. Look at the percentage, and you’ll see it’s respectable. Elway threw pics, too. Cassell was given the keys to a well-oiled machine. With a line to protect him, he did fine. Cutler didn’t have much of a line last year, and did OK with no defense. THis year, he had a line, but even my 3 year old neice knew Denver would pass almost every down in 2008, especially after the running backs fell like al dente dominos. If you let the record of W-L speak, Cassell may be seen as better than Cutler. When you actually dig into the details, I think Cutler schools Cassell hands down. He is a fighter, and he wants the ball when the game is on the line. (OK that last part was a quote from a movie, but I like it.)

Get Over It Jay...
BIG difference between seeking to trade a player and listening to an offer. Players consent to being tradeable commodities and Jay is no exception. These discussions happen all of the time. A pro doesn’t make a public gripe about it. I’d be worried if X-man DIDN’T listen to all viable offers. As someone noted above, this is a tempest in a tea cup.
Really
I am sure Peyton Manning is brought up in trade discussions every day:
Detroit: Hello, Indy, would you consider trading Peyton Manning to us?
Indy: Sure, what do you have?
Somehow I don’t think every player is consisred a tradable commodity, you don’t trade the franchise or entertain the idea.

ever win 10 games. The fact of the matter is we have a legit 1 and a 2. We can line up Thigpen and Cassel both in the backfield and the D will have to guess who its going to. We are going to confuse the fuck out of you guys. Why would you sign a 35 year old safety to a 5 year contract? Dumb move if you ask me. I can’t wait to taste victory in “mile high” next season. Good luck switching to a 3-4 too. We are going to snatch BJ Raji before you can get him. Yeah you might land Maulaluga, but we are going to blow that hawian up on Sundays just watch. We have a franchise left tackle, Bowe, the best TE of all time (sorry Shannon Sharpe) and we are probably going to sign TJ Hous. You guys are so fucked you don’t even know whats coming.

We don’t bash the Broncos on their own site. The Dolts and the Faders, sure, but jeez. You’d get all pissed off if a Bronco came to AP and replied to your flame.
Stay classy, MHR.
You think it's coincidence that I bleed red?
Thanks Mully
You’re a class act yourself.
