  1. If Fields were to become available than it is saying the Bears made a mistake choosing him and are trying to squeeze a pick out of him. NO NO NO NO
  2. It wasn't necessarily his play calling it was the fact that he couldn't make in game adjustments. Don't want him as an OC but would let him as an understudy or assist OC.
  3. 13 Days until the combine. Several players will move up and down on draft boards by showing off in their tights.
  4. Greg could walk circles around Brady. Brady might know the game very well but you have to have a personality to be a color man. I just don't see it. Sadly, they'll lose a good one for a boring one.
  5. No matter how many times you say it, doesn't make you right. If we draft a QB at #9 that QB is going to have a long road before he starts. Corral is going to get an equal look regardless of who and when we draft a QB.
  6. We just might. If Reich sees a QB fall that has traits he thinks he can develop, I'd be on the bandwagon. Wouldn't be the first time a low round pick turned out to be something special.
  7. I'll give you a true story about another QB that wasn't given an opportunity to shine and ended up being one of the greatest QBs ever to play the game. There was a QB was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 9th round. He was given little opportunity to shine and was cut before the season started. As Rhule treated Corral the same was done by a coach named Walt Kiesling. He gave this young man no reps and eventually was cut. The QBs name was Johnny Unitas. While I am not implying that Corral is the next Johnny Unitas the story hasn't been told on Corral yet and to blow him off as a nobody is wrong. I think we all should give the kid a chance to prove himself before someone who knows something takes him and turns him into a star. John Unitas, shunned by the Pittsburgh Steelers, is the mover in the surprising strength of Baltimore. The rifle-armed kid from the steel country is the most effective passer in the NFL through the first four games - Sports Illustrated Vault | SI.com
  8. You know I get the hatred for the guy or dislike or whatever it is you think you see. And you're right a True NFL QB can shine no matter the circumstances providing he gets true opportunities to practice with real NFL players. It's well documented that Rhule gave Corral about 5 minutes at the end of practice to play. Give or take that's about 3 or 4 plays, maybe 5. Are you going to sit here and tell me that all camp and preseason Corral got real opportunities? How many posters agreed that Rhule treated Corral like a redshirt freshman. You know if Corral had been given legitimate Reps in practice than I would at least see your point However, to sit here and make it sound like he had legitimate reps in camp and preseason is just not true. You know it and so do I. I'm with @rippadonn on this one. I think Corral with proper coaching is going to surprise a lot of people. He has things that make me believe he is going to be special.
  9. Here's my issue with Lamar. They guy wants a ton of money. Most of these QBs that demand so much money end up hurting the team. They have so much money tied up in one player that you end up skimping on other positions. I love Lamar but what he wants in a contract is too rich for me.
  10. Ok I got Philly. Philly has the best offensive line in the game. Their defense is top tier too. KC is limited with their WRs and Slay and Bradberry will shut them down so the load will be on Kelce. I think Philly mans up the WR and limit Kelce. Mahomes is dangerous but will not be 100% and he'll struggle against Philly's defense. Hurts, though somewhat injured, has many weapons at his disposal and can also run. I think Philly wins a close one. 27-24. All I know for certain is Kelce will win a ring.
  11. Someone has been betting...lol. I saw this the other day and these were the most popular betting items.
  12. He's still young and played much better at the end of the season outside of the New Orleans game. If I were the GM, I wouldn't trade our pick and if one of the QBs land in our lap I would take him. Most mocks I have seen has one of the top four QBs fall to us. I would select that QB and go into camp with Darnold, Corral and the rookie. All of them on an equal plateau. No one really slotted above the other. Let them battle it out. Darnold, IMO, would have the upper hand because he has the experience. Reich and McCown would have their hands full with improving Darnold and developing Corral and the rookie. It would be a huge upgrade over the QB room we had last year. I think Darnold could be had at a very decent price. Going after another Vet might just cost us more and take away from other positions that we might try to upgrade.
  13. There is as much tape on Corral as there are on any QBs in this draft. I don't know what the rules are about a coach getting with a player on their own time but Corral has been out of his boot for well over 3 months now and should be able to start throwing and working on his craft. Should Corral and McCown get the opportunity to work some it will greatly help in the decision on whether we HAVE to draft a QB or COULD draft a QB.
  14. Purely Coincidental. I seriously doubt that Carolina used that as some sort of enticement for Reich. His daughter just got a position on her own. We'll leave it at that, and you can keep your conspiracy theory.
  15. Complete arrogance on Rhule's behalf. How could anyone think a bunch of nobodies is going to compete with coaches with all their experience. It showed in every game. None of our coaches had any idea on how to adjust what other teams were doing. Starting with Rhule on down.
  16. His daughter lives in the Carolinas and applied for a job in marketing. She's been around football all her life and applied to the local team for a position. As a hiring manager it would make sense to hire someone that has an understanding of what football is. Why is it so hard to believe she couldn't get a job on her own. PURELY COINCIDENTAL.
  17. Would you be content with Darnold, Corral and our freshly drafted rookie going into camp? Honestly, I wouldn't have an issue with it.
  18. He did, which some believe that if we sign Johnson, we will go hard at AR15 if we don't trade up for Stroud or Young.
  19. Reich's daughter had zero to do with his hiring and it was purely coincidental that she was hired a week before her dad was. Eason is practice squad material and that's it. He's nowhere near the talent Corral is. He's been cut by the Colts and Seahawks and has been on and off our practice squad. At the time of his signing, we had one QB on the Roster, Corral. So, they resigned him to play along until we get our rookie and once a Vet is signed don't be surprised if we cut him again. Nothing more than fodder.
  20. I bet the confetti will still be falling and we offer Brian Johnson the OC Job.
  21. Agreed, IF Evero was hired as a HC. Capers could move to DC or he could as you say stay as an assistant. If Capers were to be promoted to DC the chances of him jumping to a HC position is highly unlikely. He could end up as our DC for several years and continue to develop his tree.
  22. Great idea. If Fitterer goes all out for this guy when FA starts don't be surprised if Burns gets moved.
  23. Your theory about Eason goes out the window because he was signed to a reserve contract three days prior to Frank Reich being named head coach. There is no way Eason is going to go into camp ahead of Corral. Eason, at best, is camp fodder. Corral has many good traits for an NFL QB. If there is one coach that can bring out the best in him, it's Reich. Corral may be a dark horse heading into Camp behind a Rookie and a Vet but that doesn't mean he's complete out of the picture.
  24. This is probably the only scenario that Carolina gets the #1 pick. Chicago wants either Anderson or Carter and will only trade down low enough to get one or the other. They aren't going to risk losing out on these players going down to anything below #4. Now if Burns would be offered than that satisfies the need and would allow Chicago to go down to #9. That said, Burns is worth two first rounders PERIOD. I would not give any more #1s on top of it and nothing more than day 3 picks. They want Burns as bad as we want our choice of QB. You would be able to use our 2nd round pick (39) to address the HUGE HOLE we just opened up on our D-Line.
