I'd be happy with McNeil-Warren if we somehow could in round 2. Dude is an absolute thumper.

Typo. McDonald and Hood

Colton Hood is the 2nd with McDonald.

McDaniel is one. Not sure about the 2nd.

You do realize the reason our OL is so expensive is because of this FO. Right?

Moton will be here for the next 2 unless we trade him or he gets injured. After that, who knows.

Way too early to make that claim. We haven't even had a winning season yet.

Rams may take Simpson

19 and XL if he's still there at 12. Jerry will do it...

Also explains why so many of them are broke 5 years after they're done. Too many stupid decisions with stupid money.

Depends on how they use him. Bijan is another level just like CMC. They arent your standard RB. Harrison Jr, Wilson McBride, Love. Plug in a good QB and that offense is immediately scary.

My other dream scenario. Jerry Jones reaches on both Dallas' picks and gets 2 1st round busts who are cut by the off season.

Unfortunately, not only in America. Justice has a price tag and has throughout history.

Dream scenario. A video of Styles in a cloudy gas mask is released 10 minutes before the draft begins and he falls to us at 19. After Styles, I'd take Downs. My ultimate been smoking way to much dream scenario, the Giants give us 5th and 10th for XL to pair with Nabors, we draft Styles and Downs.

It is a hypothetical that follows a very unique series of events surrounding Bryce from the hiring and firing of Frank to bringing in yet another QB who offers nothing to a team with a bottom tier QB as an entrenched starter. Reject my premise if you want to, it doesn't matter to me. Tepper has always been long to admit his mistakes when they have been glaringly obvious to everyone else. We've seen it over and over. What I've suggested is perfectly plausible for our narcissistic owner.

What's more likely? An entire competant NFL front office (as many here suggest Morgan runs) has watched Bryce struggle week in and week out to perform at the bare minimum of NFL QBs for 3 years and has decided that's the future of this organization, OR our owner who has proven repeatedly he can't keep his nose out of team decision making has declared Bryce is our QB until he decides otherwise, especially given he's the one that drafted him in the first place?

Seems like a more reasoned method of selecting players than any Fitts ever used.

I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense. We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one. What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

That doesn't look like a stache.

The pattern of what we've done before, during and after the trade and selection of Bryce points to Tepper being involved in his selection and continued presence as the unquestioned starter. Pickett sucked in Philly, he just didn't start. If he hadn't sucked, Pittsburg wouldn't have gotten rid of him as a 1st round QB. Grier is so bad we already cut him once. He offers zero upside. There were FA QBs available last season that we could have gotten over Dalton who actually outperformed Bryce. The bar is low, ridiculously low. But we keep adding people who have proven they are below that bar. Bryce is a bottom tier QB. We should be actively looking to improve the roster. You can say virtually no QB3s and few QB2s could challenge Bryce. That's true. But it also means there may be some that can. We're not looking for those guys. We should be. They could definitely challenge a KP or Grier. The goal is winning seasons and winning the division. Relying on the Falcons to win so you can get into the playoffs with a losing record in a weak division isn't a recipe for success.

Im not angry. Im disappointed. I want to win. Anyone who has watched Bryce play the last 3 years and thinks that this team has in any way seriously addressed the glaring deficiencies in our QB room is deluding themselves. It's been explained ad nauseum how our FO has protected Bryce from feeling even slightly challenged or pressured. A GM without an interfering owner would have brought in another QB to at least give the team a better chance at winning. We just gave an extension to a QB that only got 3k yards on the last play of his 16th game of the year. Indy admitted AR wasn't good enough by bringing in Jones to compete for the starting role. Tennessee drafted Ward to replace Levis. Stroud hasn't repeated his 1st year and Mills' performance was decent when he filled in after Stroud's injury and some were calling for him to remain starter. His future there is still in question even with a 5th year. We should have done the same, especially given that Bryce was benched. Bringing in Grier is just another glaring billboard pronouncing the obvious. Dave Tepper still has his hands in the daily operations of this team. He controls the QB room because Bryce was his pick. Until Tepper finally admits that Bryce has barely lived up to the standards of a NFL Qb, we're going to spend our days reminiscing of when we were mediocre and finished 9-7. It's just discouraging. We'll address every position on the field except the one with a glaringly obvious shortcoming. I had hoped Tepper really had backed off. Bryce's 5th year, Dalton's 2 year contract then trade, Kenny Pickett, Will Grier, Jack Plummer, and Hendon Hooker say otherwise. It already feels like it's going to be a hard year of Panthers football to watch.

Cinci feels like Carolina when we had Cam. We didn't prioritize protecting Cam. Cinci has done the same with Burrow.

If we're just looking for a body, get one that we haven't seen before. Draft a late round prospect or an udfa with traits. Take a look at something different. If both are getting cut anyway, I'd rather take a shot on the guy that has .1% of becoming something than the guy that's already proven he's 100% of nothing as a QB prospect.

Now we just need Bo Callahan and our QB room is complete.
