If he could stay healthy…

Worst case scenario it can serve as a bridge QB year if we decide to draft one in next year's class. I'm not really concerned about the 5th year option, it's the extension that will be interesting...

Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

His point is the Lions could have a hole at either RT or LT with Sewell being able to play both at a high level. They could have easily kept Sewell at RT where he has been playing at an elite level and draft Freeling to be their LT. It almost makes more sense. I also think painting these players into traditional LT or RT roles by their style is a little outdated. With the way defenses are moving their DL and pass rushers around the RT needs to be just as quick at the LT anymore. OG play is even considered more valuable now that it was in the past.

I don't have anything against Beck. I think it's a bit of a red flag he was 100% UGA's weakest link when he was on that loaded team. He looked better at Miami this past year. Definitely has the arm talent.

Everyone should post an unembedded tweet in honor of Juan!

I liked him at Tulane then won the ACC (yeah it was a down year) at Duke. Now he has that Miami talent around him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he is in the heisman race at all.

CJ Bailey could absolutely crush it. Next year should have some nice WRs in Jeremiah Smith and Cam Coleman off the top of my head as well.

https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/positions/QB/1/2027 The list is impressive plus there is always someone who comes out of no where. Sorsby playing on that loaded Texas Tech team should look good too.

I kind of like Mensah too and he wasn’t even mentioned in these. Nico has the tools but needs to produce this year.

Still can’t figure out how he fell to round 5 aside from it just being a loaded safety class.

Yeah we can cut Grier pretty easily

We virtually met with Sawyer Robertson too. Altmyer would be a nice pickup. I’d bring in Trigg too. Worth the gamble.

If we are wanting ILB Hill, Allen, and JRod are still there so no need to rush things. S and NB are other options well with some nice targets.

So you think Sadiq and KC are top shelf?

What kind of draft?!

rippadonn likes him. That might be a red flag.... https://x.com/rippadonn/status/2042310653176594854

You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks. Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example. The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….

I hope not but I suspect they probably do…

Probably a lot cheaper signing Grier, especially for the practice squad guy.

Do it Dan!

If Nuss or Allar are there in the 4th I'd love to get one. I'd love to see if our staff can develop either of these (especially Allar). Allar has the ceiling you want but Nuss probably has the higher floor.

You are thinking waaaaaaaay to deep into a QB signed in mid April who might make the practice squad at best. The whole Tepper Bryce bit it just boring at this point. To even connect Tepper/Bryce to this signing is just absurd. Pickett is simply a backup QB. He was one with the Super Bowl winning Eagles but suddenly on our roster he is the worst QB ever and only here because we are afraid to give Bryce any competition? No. He is just a young backup QB to take Dalton's spot. We have visited with Pavia, Robertson, King, and Payton off the top of my head. We either didn't like this class or wanted to go ahead and have another QB in OTAs so we signed a cheap QB3/practice squad QB which is exactly what Grier is. If we are wanting to replace Bryce, next year's class looks to be the one IMO. Very few QB2s and virtually no QB3s are challenging even a struggling starter like Bryce.

We are looking at a practice squad QB. I think some people just want to be angry. We aren't picking up anyone that will challenge for QB1 in mid April.
