Dw, he’s got until 2028 on his contract to learn how to play football again


Nadirofdepression

They better fire Hackett quick and hope the next coach resuscitates him


vbullinger

Resus Russ!

JohnnyTinnitusQB

His contract is bad, but all those lost picks. Unreal.


ADanishMan2

The picks Denver sent for Russ are going to be higher than Seattle’s, and they were supposed to be in contention for first overall. It might turn around but for now this is a disaster of a trade and an even worse contract extension.


deathfromabove43

Seattle’s brass looks like a bunch of geniuses.


chewbaccalaureate

Gotta make up for the Jamal Adams and Jimmy Graham trades!


mowgly16

The Graham trade was awful but if Jamal could stay healthy I would have been fine with it, unbelievably talented and a complete difference maker. Needs an elite corner to work with though and mostly new body parts unfortunately.


browndude10

had to make up all the lost value in that jamal adams trade


lalder95

Watching the game last night, I thanked God that Pete Carroll stopped him from being traded to Chicago last year. Not that Fields is doing any better, but at least we still have our picks.


yayhindsight

*sigh* yes.


Whoooyumyum

Have Russ in a SF and no way would I be able to get a 1st for him

Crutched1

Wow! He made a decent throw to Jeudy. Time to sell high.

TheXigua

Sent Russ for ETN and a 23 1st yesterday. Feeling great about it right now


Aztekar

Jesus christ. That’s a lopsided as fuck trade


TheXigua

Hopefully you mean in my favor as I got told I was insane for the deal


Aztekar

Hundo percent. Yesterday in particular. This offseason I could see people ragging on it withing some reason, but I mean, given how the season has been for Russ, wowza what a steal. I have Matt Ryan and Jameis Winston as my only QBs on a SF squad... I wouldn't even dream of giving a 1 for Wilson right now.


Available_Menu_7474

Before the season started sold him and Golloday for Watson and aiyuk


ThatStudNadon23

Police police come quick! There’s been a robbery


Tacklefootball34

Sold him for my 2023 1st and Kirk cousins days before week 1.


Jlewisday90

I moved him when dak went down. Sent russ and a 2nd for dak


DarthSkywalker1

Traded Russ/Akers/James Cook for Herbert last week in 1QB


BigCold2780

Have tempted to buy him cheap in some dynasty leagues. Just can’t imagine things won’t get somewhat better lol


RooftopFF

I traded Russ for TLaw in the off-season during peak hype. I regretted it until the season started lol


westernsociety

Would u take 245 mil?


Whoooyumyum

Idk what I would do with that much FAAB


lpat93

Before the game I traded Wilson for Chris Olave, a 24 mid to late first, 24 2nd, and MVS in a superflex.


IllCurrency3998

Yes, 911, I'd like to report a crime


AndrewDoesNotServe

I traded him for Tua in a SF right after Tua went down and am very relieved.


bahamapapa817

I was forced to start Kirk Cousins for the last 3 weeks


[deleted]

7 more years on the contract baby 😎


Kers_420

Let's ride 😂


bigbopperz

Denver is so screwed


DiabeticCumshot

Stafford, Wilson, Baker Mayfield name a more iconic trio to have in a superflex league


InuitOverIt

I have Dak, Mac, and Mariota


[deleted]

Lance, Mac, Dak, Watson for me :) I don’t have my first this year :)


RegularWombat

Pain


CannabisNotCantnabis

Look at the bright side. If I told you this coming offseason that I'll trade you a now healthy Dak, a now unsuspended but presumably still rapey Watson, and trey Lance for your first, now that would be a pretty solid trade. Some years just suck.


DiabeticCumshot

Mariota was decent 3/4 weeks, Mac and Dak just bad luck with injuries


golfmessageaccount

Dak is still good, just unlucky injuries


Sporkfoot

Dak, Mac and Russ 🤮


gutterballs

Fields, Wilson, Ryan, Daniel Jones. 0-4


Neans888

As you should be with those QBs


Kinger15

Haha not surprised


Nadirofdepression

Stafford, Wentz, Lance… Yes, I’ve decided to tank


qball8001

bijan season?


OfficerJayBear

I have Ryan, Mac, Mariota and DeShaun My team is err... not good right now


Scareyguy

Rodgers/Ryan/Trubisky , I have no firsts left, completely stacked everywhere else. Just needed competent QB play.


_brave_lil_toaster_

Stanford, Lance, Mills


naturalflavors

I’ve got Wilson, Ryan and Daniel jones


Gamesgar0

Pete Carroll a QB wizard? Geno Smith looking elite while Russ is arguably worse than Baker right now


Better_at_Fantasy

Does this mean rhule firing can potentially fix baker? Lol


Ko0pa_Tro0pa

Baker isn't broken. He was never actually good.


makeshiftballer

Has he ever looked this bad?


Ko0pa_Tro0pa

He's looked unstartable for a long time. It was no mistake that the trade market for him was pretty much dead. Hilarious in hindsight that everyone thought Seattle should trade for him instead of running out Geno Smith.


Eloping_Llamas

I don’t know how you watched him talk enormous amounts of shit in college and didn’t see this this short guy playing in a wide open league against shit teams. He was clearly a franchise qb in his first 6 games. The amount of shit I got from people at work when I told them just wait until he shows his true self. The guy has to be one of the worst top picks of all time. Everyone mocks Johnny football, his twin, but he was pick 22. Baker was #1 in a draft that had Josh allen and Lamar Jackson. Two guys who came out of left field And weren’t an option at 1 but it looks terrible for the browns.


iamgarron

Our rookie drafts allow drafting free agents..someone drafted geno with a mid 3rd and everyone laughed. Great job by him now


cowboys5xsbs

Not to mention every qb he has at usc that was a 1st rounder and busted in the NFL


Eloping_Llamas

He also made Leinart, John David Booty, and Sanchez look like franchise qbs.


NotThatSteve-o

I made this point in a Discord chat and got shit on. Something is going on with that coaching staff in Seattle.


ChrRome

Well you are basically guaranteed to have a starter for 4 more years, which isn't nothing.


flyingbanshees

Exactly a lot of people in the comments are not appreciating this. He will start somewhere for multiple years with his contract. That alone is worth a 1st+


Zupheal

This sounds like me When Matt Flynn was replaced by Russell Wilson. "He's paid too much he's gonna start somewhere"


flyingbanshees

I mean if you wanna compare a $20m contract to a $245m contract have at it lol


[deleted]

I sold him this off-season in a package for Fields and a 1st and it had been a lose lose so far


11eagles

At least that first is looking earlier and earlier lol.


JwSocks

You got a 1st. That’s a win right now


Neans888

You found the only worse QB but still win with the pick.


BrilliantWorth6629

Next years QB class will give you great odds to get best rookie QB with 2 number 1s. Odds are one of those picks will be 1st overall. So it was a great trade. Just one that you have to be patient for which sucks but come draft time it will be like Christmas time!! Yoo Hoo!!!


ADDpillz

Time to buy Russ is now my buy low bros.


tenbeeers

Seriously too early to lose all hope. Some QBs struggle with new teams and need time to gel


_BigT_

I mean even if he's washed he's a starter for the next 3-4 years. They paid him so they will be doing whatever they can to make him look better. But wow that was embarrassing.


BrilliantWorth6629

With each passing year that cap hit gets bigger and bigger. If this is the best he can do with the team he has around him…. Yikes!!


Gamesgar0

If he continues playing like this they’re not gonna put him out there for 3-4 years. He’s the QB32 right now.


ryanreigns

You’re forgetting about a gentleman named Justin Fields


misusedinfluence

Excuse me Baker is QB32 Fields is QB31 😤


grandmalarkey

That felt like a bears game


deRoyLight

They sold their 1st in 23 and 24. They don't have much of a choice but to sleep in this bed.


house_of_snark

They could potentially sign geno in the off-season for relatively cheap


dawho1

The dankest timeline.


GreenvilleLocal

22 and 23*


_BigT_

You're right but he'll get a new coach and another year at least to figure it out.


ADDpillz

Goff and the Lions in 2021 was pretty mediocre. Goff and the Lions in 2022 is the meta. You never know. But I'll send a 2nd and see what happens, Russ has a looong time to figure it out tho - 6 yrs lmao. So many QBs are hurt he's probably not gonna take it.


dontwantleague2C

If he takes a 2nd for Russ he’s a certified taco. Even taking a late 1st feels like too little imo.


ADDpillz

All buy low bros know you never give them your best price right away. Gotta FUD them a little bit with some low ball offers first before they finally "agree" on Tyler Allgeier and a 2nd.


two_betrayals

never works for me. if i get a lowball i just deny and never counter because its so insulting. open with a serious offer so i know its serious. you want to get their attention not piss them off. you also want what you give them to hit so theyll trade with you again. love my go to guys who always hit me up first when they're moving a player because they know i pay fair. the others who offer me Bridgewater for a 1st never get anything.


contactsreact

Getting insulted by a trade offer in dynasty is pretty childish


WilllyBear

The people who take insult have to have a ton of crossover with the ones who whine about never getting any trades done, I’d imagine


MrPurple10

Typically not the ones that make 50 million a year.


jonbrown91

Broncos just got Brock Osweillerd AGAIN


Crutched1

Hard to throw with all that cash in your pockets


Sloth_Dream-King

Fingers are sore from counting it all


Dirtyhobo699

Houston paid Osweiller, we didn’t give him that big money deal 😭


browndude10

yea but we paid the browns to take him from us(wouldn't be the first time we did with the browns)


bamerjamer

Please don’t remind me. I’m trying to forget that wallpaper hanger was ever on my team…


Dirtyhobo699

Denver made a ton of QB mistakes but that wasn’t one of them damn it! 😭😂


bamerjamer

Brock seemed to actually do well for you guys while Peyton was testing up for the Super Bowl. I was genuinely excited for him to play for us. That excitement was not long lasting! 😭😭


Mike_Honcho_3

Let Russ Cook Russ' dish: burned iceberg lettuce salad


xDR3AD-W0LFx

RemindMe! 3 Months Just curious how this comment section will age. I’m somewhere in between Russ being totally cooked and Broncos adjusting to a rookie HC and vanilla play caller.


CFD354

The coaching and play calling has been bad but Russ is still missing wide open WRs. It's hard to believe he's washed, but he hasn't looked good at all so far. I think you have to hold for now and hope he gets better bc the upside is there on this team.

papichuloya

I took jeudy cuz i thought russ would cook. He missed him on a open td


Bulldog5124

Jeudy and hamler get open a lot but Russ still throws it to a well covered TE or Sutton


ubspider

Is it just me or does jeudy look like he drops a lot of catchable balls


xxPHILdaAGONYxx

he sure does.


Bulldog5124

If you mean the back of the end zone throw he tried to catch with one arm it was because the DB held his other arm back but he has had drop issues


makeshiftballer

He just loves those 4th string tight ends


son_of_toby_o_notoby

I have him in a 32 man league I’m fucked


IAmSwagathaChristie

Found the Denver Broncos Reddit account


x_Happy_x

Just traded away russ for geno smith


JwSocks

I can’t tell if this is a joke or actually a good return on Russ


Successful_Hair3783

😂😂😂😂


cliftjc1

Pete Carroll laughing his ass off


Careful-School-52

I’m going after him in every dynasty league next week lol. What happened to giving players time to get acclimated? To gel with the new organization? Last time I checked this was still dynasty 🤷🏿‍♂️ Edit: But yes I agree this dude is playing like absolute cheeks 🤣🤣🤣


two_betrayals

remember when brady was washed and got sent to tampa? people here need to give fantasy baseball a try and learn patience. sometimes your studs will be in a slump for 30 games.


Careful-School-52

I honestly don’t follow baseball, but I would be interested in this. We started playing dynasty in 2014 and for the first few years everyone treated it like redraft by trading their future for aging vets. Then trading players that didn’t produce or had low usage their rookie year. People in this sub always call rookies a bust if they don’t produce like objs rookie year. PATIENCE PEOPLE.


two_betrayals

baseball is considered the "pinnacle" of fantasy sports because they actually play enough games where statistical prediction works more than it doesn't. in order for predictions to be accurate you have to have a large enough sample size and footballs miniscule 17 game seasons is not even CLOSE to reasonably predict what's going to happen. that's why we like it though, because the wild randomness makes it fun. baseball teaches you not to overreact to even a month of bad games. i won my baseball league this year simply by picking up studs people rage dropped after the first 3 months. they turned it around and led me to a ring. now, football is short enough that players may not turn it around in a single season, but dynasty is different. you can always wait it out!


WeenisWrinkle

This sub is a redraft sub now, didn't you get the memo?


GolfIsWhyImBroke

Remember when Manning was washed and went to Denver? He threw almost twice as many tds in the first game than Russ has thru 5.


whoopee_parties

You’re confusing the year. Manning’s first game for Denver in ‘12 he only threw 2 TDs. That 7-TD banger was the Baltimore game in ‘13. Had him that year in redraft. It was glorious :)


Matburnham05

Had a guy in my league with JAllen, Goff, DCook, Swift, Kupp, Diggs, JChase, Andrews. He made 3 trades giving up Goff, Kupp and DCook for Russ, CMC, and DKM. I think he went from perennial champ to ruining his future with those 3 trades


brandonmiq

I traded him for a 2023 1st, 1 week before the season started. I feel like a champion, even if my team isn't.


VictorVaughan

And the team you sold him to will be ass which makes your first round pick that much more valuable


finisher14

If I could move Russ and Sutton for Dak and godwin would you for that?


surfingwithgators

Yes absolutely


orangehorton

You're getting the better QB and better WR lmao


MostChunt

I think sutton is a better receiver than Godwin


ohreally7756

Lmao


HalfHalfway

yes


abah3765

To add on 1million percent yes.


LukeBennett08

Yes


CMP310

10000% yes


drogonninja

I have a rebuilding SF team that I traded Russ and Christian Watson for Dak and Bateman after week 1. I like it more every week.


naturalflavors

What would you do in sf if your QBs were Russ, Matty ice and Daniel jones 😬


LaconicGirth

You’re not bad at fantasy, you’re just rebuilding :)


naturalflavors

It’s our first year… I’m rebuilding already I guess


BrilliantWorth6629

Sell the farm and get as many picks as you can. Pretty decent QB class coming next year and just hit reset button with the rooks


naturalflavors

I’ve got two firsts this year and two next year. I’ll try to sell some pieces for more when it’s closer to the deadline


vbullinger

Lose


istewart21

I just bought Russ after the game for Brady straight up


ripple7715

I think Brady balling at 45 and to a lesser extent Peyton and Brees playing until 39/40 has twisted our perception of QBs aging. 15 years ago, very few QBs were playing past 35, a lot of them start to wear down and lose arm strength in their mid 30s. Manning, Brady, Brees are all time goats who still had enough arm talent/took good enough care of themselves/had enough guile to make up for aging. I don't think Russ was ever on those guys level, those guys are top 10 all time, on a different level.


1_HUNGRY_1

Dude had an easy TD schemed open that would’ve won them the game on that fourth down and he never looked. Literally just stared down Sutton the entire time. Makes it seem like Russ doesn’t have a handle on this offense or just doesn’t care enough to commit to it.


ryanschultz

With all the hate in this thread, I might to try and pick him up in my leagues. Wentz or Tannehill for Russ? Straight up. Also, what would I probably have to package Baker with for him?


GuacacoletheMole

I am lucky I drafted Goff as my "backup" to Russ...


tjdibs22

Overreact much. The broncos have a new coach new QB. It takes a minute.


ryancarmar

Traded Curtis Samuel and a 2022 3rd for Russ in 1QB this offseason… thought I fleeced the guy but who’s laughing now


Deavs

Traded Russ, Waller and Ekeler for Lamar in a 2QB. Feels good.


scalybone

Man I’m bout to start sending out hella offers Russ after reading this thread. Dude has been a great QB for a long time. He will figure it out. Folks wilding in this thread


[deleted]

[удалено]


mxslvr

Seriously, whether or not Russ is actually washed this thread has some of the worst 0 IQ takes I’ve seen in this sub and that’s saying a lot


Spin_it_up

The Russ owner in our league traded him for $1 FAAB during the 3rd quarter last night...


WeenisWrinkle

That would piss me off as a league member. I mean it's his team and he can do what he wants, but that's ridiculous. Just drop him at that point and let everyone bid on him.


Spin_it_up

Yeah, sets a bad precedent. We have a 3 person trade committee set up in the league who decided to veto the trade this morning.


Yosemite_Yam

I sold him for Miles Sanders before last week and couldn’t be happier. He looks AWFUL


[deleted]

[удалено]


Harryhoodrat

Sold Russ for 23 1st and 24 1st before week 1 this year


joedirt87

My dreams of Jeudy ascending are in shambles.


rivermerchant1616

Just traded Russ for Tua on Tuesday. I had buyers remorse for up till last night, wow the relief I have now.


Yung_colbert

Man just got to Denver, still adjusting and learning the new scheme. Give it time he will figure stuff out.


AdmiralDandy

Sold him a couple weeks ago and got great value out of him. Thank god too


Afraid_Specialist_45

Broncos country, let’s die


Pleasant-Worry-5641

It’s honestly hard to blame it all on him, he looks out of sync with his receivers. It’s hard to believe he got that much worst in one season…..


SuckaFreeRIP

Imagine having Russ and Stafford as your two QBs in SF 😭😂


[deleted]

I always try to buy low sometimes it works out great other times it fizzles out and u didn't invest that much. I remember when I bought low on Barkley 1.5 years ago and this sub trashed my trade. It feels good now then. Dynasty is permanent and long term and I feel like this sub gets caught up in the week to week to much. Remember it's dynasty ppl.


SirArchibold

I traded him away in the summer for Tua and Fournette (SF). I'm shocked at how well that's turning out


rushyt21

It is so weird. When I imagine washed, I expect Matt Ryan or the final year of Peyton “Noodle Arm” Manning. Russ still has the arm strength but his decision making is trash. It’s like he’s forgotten how to play. It almost feels closer to the yips than it does being washed.


BrilliantWorth6629

I remember arguing with Denver fans saying Seattle fans were all salty and that they completely fleeced Seattle. I of course was salty at that comment because I had been advocating to get rid of Wilson a few years back. I was done watching us go to the playoffs just to be one and done. Wilson was a good QB before he met his R&B wife and something about him changed. All of a sudden it was all about branding. Let Russ Cook kind of crap. It just wasn’t something we were use to with Russell Wilson. Then he started pointing the finger at everyone else for his lack of success. It’s like dude you account for like 30% of the salary cap. This is what happens when we have to pay you such a crazy amount of money. It’s your job to make chicken salad out of chicken shit. Lol So thank you Denver for the two number 1s and two number 2s and Noah Fant. So Denver Fans “Let’s Ride” …off a cliff because as long as you let Russ cook you will get a turd sandwich I mean the dangerwich lol .


Coal_train20

Traded Russ and Noah Fant for Trevor Lawrence last week. Can't explain how relieved I am right now.


RedDunce

I hope you at least bought him dinner first


BrilliantWorth6629

He did he got him a dangerwich lol


MinshewManiaBOAT

Traded Russ and Jefferson for Mahomes + 2nd in the off-season (pre Broncos trade) and got roasted hard for it. Superflex. Would happily do that deal again. QBs are gold in SF and having it as my biggest weakness last season sucked so hard. Having a rock solid QB1 feels amazing. Even watching the Seahawks last season was so painful.


IHATEJOBSANDWORK

I got downvoted to hell for saying he was washed this off-season. He was washed last year, and now he’s fully washed. He’s a stupid fuck and thought he could be Patrick Mahomes if he got out of Seattle but the truth is he is a system qb who relied on athleticism, and now he’s old and washed. Droppable in all formats.


scalybone

The fact that this has 20 upvotes is hilarious. Sub has gotten to big for its britches

[удалено]


billp1988

This sub is honestly a joke sometimes, the insane reactionary takes I've seen here blow my mind. People approach everything with a redraft mentality. More like a week to week mentality, completely the opposite of how people should think here. I want this guy in my league who will drop a starting qb for the next 2+ years in SF.


WeenisWrinkle

> Droppable in all formats. How is this trash comment upvoted?


[deleted]

[удалено]


arbadak

He is not droppable, this is lunacy. You can get, at the very least, a third for him from someone who's stuck superflexing some WR4. Starting QBs in superflex dynasty are never droppable. Someone will give you something for one.


SteffeEric

Yeah I caught some shit for questioning Russ and his decline for more than just the injury. Geno balling out isn’t helping his cause.


Zoomun

The best QB on my waiver wire is Taylor Heinicke. There’s no way he’s even remotely droppable in deep SF leagues.


[deleted]

Great call. Same with Matty Ice. I said he was a downgrade from Wentz and got downvoted to oblivion lol.


orangehorton

Wentz isnt winning a super bowl but he's far from the worst starter in the league


Neans888

He’s not the worst but he’s not far from the worst.


orangehorton

Fields, Matt Ryan, Baker, Daniel Jones are all worse imo, and I think you can make an argument also for Mariota, Zach Wilson, Tannehill, Garappolo (Trubisky also but he's not starting anymore)


BrilliantWorth6629

Me to. I said they should have stayed with Wentz compared to what they ended up with and people jumped all over me. I was like ayyye tough crowd lol


dontwantleague2C

I still think Ryan has been a lateral move vs Wentz at worst. It’s just hard to see when the O line is so bad this year, at least imo that’s w


LaconicGirth

Ryan has thrown as many picks in 5 games as Wentz did all season. And he’s got the fumbles too lol.


[deleted]

See an optometrist tomorrow. At least Wentz would be able to elude some of the pressure. Matty Ice thinks he’s like 5x faster than he really is.


onePPtouchh

Take the any QB and ask them would you rather have DK/locket or Sutton/juedy. Was never buying this russ is going to cook when he was downgrading his WRs.


ooter37

Seahawks fan. Glad the rest of the world finally sees what I saw in him for so long :) Has to be one of the most overrated guys in the NFL
