Top QB storylines head to minicamp

Jori Epstein and Charles McDonald of Yahoo Sports begin by discussing the latest violation of NFL playing policy (this time by Indianapolis Colts CB Isaiah Rodgers Sr.), the Buffalo Bills defensive line after signing Leonard Floyd and extending Ed Oliver and how long we could see the New York Jets extending DT Quinnen Williams. Next, they discuss the best potential landing spots for former Arizona Cardinals WR DeAndre Hopkins. Later, they discuss the top five quarterback scenarios heading to minicamps, including the Jets and Zach Wilson, the Colts and Anthony Richardson, the San Francisco 49ers and Trey Lance, the Denver Broncos and Russell Wilson, and the Green Bay Packers and Jordan Love.

2:46 – Isaiah Rodgers is the latest player to violate NFL play policy. His situation, unlike some of the more recent breaches, is pretty clear as he apparently bet on his own team.

9:20 a.m. – The Bills sign Leonard Floyd and extend Ed Oliver. Charles thinks the Bills are using a similar strategy to the Los Angeles Rams a few years ago. as they invest in a deep defensive line while their window is open.

11:40 a.m. – Jori provides an update on the latest news with the Jets and DT star Quinnen Williams, who is seeking a new contract. Can the Jets afford Williams a market reset deal given their very limited cap space?

15:30 – What is the best landing spot for WR DeAndre Hopkins? Jori heard that the Bills originally planned to trade for Hopkins, but that ultimately fell through. She likes the Tennessee Titans as a landing spot, while Charles would like to see Hopkins on the Kansas City Chiefs.

27:15 – Major QB scenarios head to minicamp. Do the Jets need another backup behind Aaron Rodgers? Zach Wilson hasn’t looked great in camp so far, and the Jets need to make sure they can survive if Rodgers is out for a few games.

34:15 – Colts rookie QB Anthony Richardson tends to be the starter in week one at Indy. While many believe Richardson needs to sit back and learn for a while, Charles believes this could be the right move for Richardson as he is learning on the job as long as the team has no expectations. high for the first year.

40:00 – As 49ers HC Kyle Shanahan dodges questions about QB Brock Purdy, Charles wonders if Trey Lance could get back in the running for the starting role in SF. Jori and Charles discuss how the quarterback situation could play out.

45:00 – Is Russell Wilson ready for a rebound year under Sean Payton? Charles thinks he might be. Russ still has a playoff-ready roster around him in Denver, and once again the pressure is on him to do it.

48:25 – Jori and Charles try to figure out what would count as a successful year for Packers QB Jordan Love. He has a good offensive line and a decent roster around him, and the NFC North is still wide open. Charles wants Love to be at least in the top 15 in offensive efficiency stats.
