Cam Newton, Jordan Gross, Ryan Kalil, Jon Beason/Luke Kuechly, Thomas Davis, most of the entire defensive line, Steve Smith, Greg Olsen, Jeremy Shockey, Jonathan Stewart, and Deangelo Williams are all obscenely more talented than their counterparts on this roster.... oh, and Rivera didn't have a sociopath owner of the team. "Heights" meaning one more win??? With somewhat competent QB play OR a defense that wasn't giving up 200 yards a game on the ground this team easily wins 4 more games last season. Bryce Young is not it. I assure you that it is not Canales' decision to keep or release Bryce Young. Only David Tepper will be making that call. If you think otherwise you've been wearing blinders since that moron bought the team. If you recall, Tepper also made the decision to keep Evero. The same applies. Until Canales can actually build the program he wants (not the program that Tepper wants) he has absolutely no chance at success.

I was already out on him after last year. You can't be a #1 WR without good hands, and if you are entering the NFL with bad hands, ain't much is gonna change that. But this speaks VOLUMES about where he is mentally. We would be smart to go ahead and move on in the offseason.

The Golden Calf of Bristol and Kaepernick are basically 1A and 1B IMO. Both camps were nuts for reasons that had nothing to do with football. You can't let loving what someone stands for off the field completely cloud your view of the play on the field. I honestly think both would've had long careers if A) the guy wanted it and was willing to play the role they should've been playing and B) they didn't bring a ton of media distraction to the team. Both guys wanted to be starting QBs or nothing. Which, fine. That's their call. It's their career or non-career. The Broncos offered Kaepernick a prove it deal. He declined. Payton wanted The Golden Calf of Bristol for the role that Taysom Hill would ultimately fill. He declined. Those are the realities the camps of supporters refuse to acknowledge.

The Golden Calf of Bristol's. Those guys were completely nuts

A lot of folks dunked on the skins at the time for it (pretty sure I did) but ultimately that approach proved correct with how it panned out. RG3 was looking really good then got derailed by injury and then damned if Cousins didn't prove to be a great mid-round pick. Hats off. Well played.

We need multiple QBs. I wouldn't be opposed to taking the Redskins approach where they drafted RG3 high and then followed that up taking Cousins in the 4th. When you don't have a QB you can't leave any stone unturned. Obviously don't force it like Gettleman spam drafting CBs but if the opportunity presents itself just do it.

Rico to a RB needy team like the Cardinals could work XL to anyone willing to take a chance Not much else IMO

Later round QB I would consider is Sam Leavitt. Good size, good arm and delivers in crunch time.

Yep, pretty much. That's basically what it boils down to. There's always going to be a crap shoot element to it.

if we move from bryce you have to choose one regardless, maybe not in the first but you have to get some new blood in here asap, this vet option that people are throwing around is destined to be a poo show here

Just have NFL level skills, only spend 1 pick on them and then pray.

This. I don't love any of these prospects but prospects I haven't loved have turned out great before.

All I can hope for is a better QB draft than last year.

How was it disrespectful and how was he caught off guard? He's a struggling young player who has missed a couple of weeks due to injury or "injury". Other than "how is the hamstring feeling?" what else are they supposed to ask him? If he didn't expect to be asked that sort of question then that's a failure of our PR team and probably his agent as well. They absolutely should've given him a heads up that it's almost certainly coming.

Nice! If I had the extra cash I'd do it myself. lol

I love that guy as a college QB. I honestly don't think he's an NFL QB but with a late round pick? I mean, we've definitely made dumber picks.

Europe (or international) will come eventually. Trying to figure out if it'd best be four teams (two NFC, two AFC) or eight teams (NFC Intl, AFC Intl) and how it'd play out in terms of schedule and playoffs They've already scheduled Australia and Brazil, and looking for Japan. So to isolate to just "Europe" may be premature... unless they've determined that's a logical expansion space given demand. I'd say that it would likely happen with an extension to an 18 week regular season, giving all teams two bye weeks to recover from overseas travel as all teams will be required to play internationally at least one game every year. More likely two. I imagine the NFL schedule maker team (great video of their process posted on the YouTube) have already run through all sorts of example scenarios to see what is/isn't possible in the future

The question was disrespectful and probably caught him off guard

I actually hope this happens. It means we don’t have as many holes as you think. Just address the QB position in free agency and the Draft.

I think he'd likely look better. But remember last year when Thielen and Coker, and even JT, has us thinking they had potential? XL was dropping easy balls even then.

If we are looking in the later rounds, Haynes King is the guy. Big arm, great mobility, and let's be honest he has the clutch gene. I think he is totally underrated.

It's disappointing that he at least didn't have the awareness to lie. Even if what he says is true surely he has to understand it comes across terribly. He's been performing terribly so at least say that missing a couple weeks with a sore hammy has given me the chance to really dive into the playbook again and get more comfortable with my understanding of the overall offensive scheme. Anything sounds better than basically saying these last couple weeks have been an utter waste.

He's basically a Dillon Gabriel/Stetson Bennett level prospect at the NFL level. But every now and then one of those guys turns out to be Brock Purdy.

Love his energy, don't want him as my QB

In the later rounds? Sure.
