Saints looking to move up the board and jump the panthers for QB

Predictable

yeah, despite the attempt to move the goalpost in this thread, the point here is that there are actually people in the building, presumably influential people, who are still deluded enough to believe Sam darnold can be a great nfl QB (or worse, a “really competent guy who can execute the offense.”) those people should be removed

the team should use a high pick on a QB how many times do I have to reiterate that

my solution is the same as has been explained to you, specifically, multiple times, over the span of a couple months now like lol

u srs bru

Whoever believes this should be fired immediately. It should be a full house cleaning, razed down to the foundation. Tepper should call for a meeting, ask anyone willing to go to bat for Darnold to raise their hand, and anybody who does so is removed from the building on the spot. There’s no future for this organization if these people are given any kind of influence in the decision making process.

There’s a “strong chance” I’d find a new team

ThE CaN!!!

who cares if it’s been a “revolving door” continuity offers no value at the OT position from season to season. The team would be just as well off buying a high level rental each year. It’s almost befuddling how people have this weird obsession with a “franchise” left tackle and then work backwards to come up with reasons why it’s appealing despite substantial holes at the most important position on the field

no, I didn’t, in fact I was more concerned with the poor play coming from the most important position in sports i don’t care about having a “decent” OL, I don’t even care about having a DOMINANT MEAN CREW OF HOG MOLLIES. i care about maximizing value relative to need relative to cost.

what kind of loser fanbase sits around and “dreams” for a “top Tackle” when you have an opportunity to actually turn your franchise around with a difference maker at QB

you don’t even know how they’re ranked or going to get drafted. Foregoing your choice of the top guy at that position is never a good idea.

lol at setting for the 3rd best QB on the board just because you wanna pick up some mid rounders. terrible idea.

I can’t think of a single other poster whose “QB model” I’m less interested in seeing

I never wanna see you criticize somebody else’s trade prop ever again.

Willis to the Lions at 2 is real hype. They tried the Huddle way last year. Didn’t work out. You’ve got to try and capitalize on the value of these high picks. Hope they go for one of the edge rushers in light of that as opposed to a QB.

Lol are you serious with this

you’re not going to legitimately push for Super Bowls with this method, you may catch lightning in a bottle and go on a run, likely falling short to a team with a super bowl caliber QB, you may prey on a weak division or just get lucky, but it almost always catches up to you-and even in the rare, rare scenario where it doesnt-it’s impossible to keep 22 guys together and playing at a high level, still evolving your approach and personnel as needed, and remaining dominant. both the Titans and chiefs had great records last season. Only one of those teams has a ten year window.

again, your position is completely unquantifiable, rooted in your own subjective opinion, contrary to what’s obviously playing before your eyes as these guys shoot up draft boards, the analytical reality of the rate in which the guys at this position adapt to the pro game, no knowledge of where they will be drafted, nor any idea how they will play (all on shaky terrain to begin with given your earlier depiction of trey Lance as a plug and play prospect) Yes: Top 10 QBs hit at a better rate than any cutesy attempt to acquire some “upside” guy or a “really capable veteran” through some late round trade. You’re completely obsessed with using a pick on a LT for the sake of doing it and your only motive is to find a way to preserve that pick at all costs, so any desperate gambit for any warm body who technically qualifies as a QB will suffice.

your entire line of thinking centers around making a low effort committment to the QB position so that you’re “free” to “build the roster” elsewhere. What do you think is the inevitable byproduct of getting 21 great players together on a team without a QB?

Top 10? That’s not exactly an impressive bar out of 22. LTs are not “just” a step down from QB. They are not in the same universe of significance, and the opportunity to take one vastly outweighs the potential benefits of a “top 10” position elsewhere. Jordan Love is just the desperate whimper of a team in QB purgatory cycling through all the low effort options they rationalize themselves into taking under the exact thought process you’re using, setting season after season on fire until they come to a hard truth: you almost certainly aren’t going to find an actual Dude at the position until you’re willing to swallow it and make a big commitment. You have to pay to play. getting cute at the QB position virtually never works.

there should be nothing scarier for an nfl fan than your team locking itself in QB purgatory, too good to draft a QB, too bad to make the playoffs. conversely there’s precious little downside to drafting a rookie QB. what’s the worst that can happen? Youre bad? You’re going to be bad without a franchise guy anyways. In this case you’re grateful that he’s bad enough to give you another chance. Far better to be bad than to be average. on the other hand, if he’s good, you’re competing for Super Bowls. If your drafted OT is good, but your QB is bad, you’re just a bad team.

hey hubby really glad you’re here why don’t you tell us how that Once In A Generation LT did for your Lions

it’s hilarious to cry strawman when your argument, the new one I mean, not the any of the original four, is unquantifiable in any way. You’re right though, I am ignoring your attempt to try and change the subject from the previous arguments you made which you couldn’t defend. tell me more about how LT is as valuable as a QB.
