Jaren Hall is getting a little overlooked IMO. He seems to be a solid mid to late draft guy.

I just remember watching Cam dominate on offense and Fairley did the same on defense.

Nick Fairley was a beast at DT. He went pretty high in the draft too I believe.

Yeah you have had to move “running” QB into such a tight window it’s stupid. It’s basically Vick (who actually could throw with the Eagles), and The Golden Calf of Bristol who was just a bust at the position. I’m looking at the top 3 QBs in the league with rushing yards and one of them is in the Super Bowl.

Yeah I will be happy with any of the 4 at 9.

I don't think we should take AR at 1, but the running QBs in the postseason talk is very dated. We have Hurts (who is probably the 2nd/3rd best runner out of all of the QBs in the NFL) and Mahomes (who can run we needed) in the Super Bowl this year. Cam took us to the big game which involved several post season wins. Russ Wilson was running pretty often when they won the Super Bowl. The thought on AR is fixing his footwork and making him a QB with a cannon who can also beat you with his legs when needed.

Yeah the CMC picks plus next year's first basically. I would be ok with that, but like you said I doubt they take that offer....

Wouldn't that be embarrassing for us? The QB that was sitting there two years ago and we should have drafted in the first place. With that said I would still love for him to be a Panther.

He did it with Trask and Carson Strong. It’s his thing…

Yeah he played injured and losing his OC hurt. That’s why it’s so much better to have an offensive minded HC. Allen dropped and Jones looked much better. It’s the Daboll effect.

Aren’t the Bucs like 55 million over the cap? Their roster will look a lot different come game day.

It’s kind of nice right? Especially when we are looking at QBs.

Sam is erratic. Good game, awful game, good game, top 5 worst rating ever game. I'd rather have a steady constant as the bridge QB/placeholder until the rookie is ready. Teddy Bridgewater was actually a good choice that was overpaid. It should have been Teddy as the bridge QB and draft Fields.

What is Darnold's record as a starter? 21-35? Isn't that what you hated on Brissett for?

It's mostly Reich's offense and now Duce Staley will have his input (especially in the running game). Cooter (makes me chuckle every time) was Pederson's passing game coordinator this past year and played a major role in developing Lawrence after Meyer screwed everything up in Jacksonville. Sounds like a good person to help develop a rookie QB when we draft one.

He has a career QB rating of 84.4 with around 61% completions. He is average but is more than capable of sitting back and being a game manager. Who do you want to start if we draft someone like Richardson or Levis who needs time? You aren't going to sign some QB with a win percentage of 75% because those aren't available, especially not for cheap.

Hurts was a much more developed passer than Richardson coming out of college. Hurts is also arguable the best QB in the NFC. I think Richardson had some questionable talent around him at Florida this year so his stats are pretty misleading, but yeah he needs a little more time as a passer. His talent however is unquestionable. If Richardson takes the next step his ceiling is through the roof. Richardson will put in the work to get better, hell just look at his 2nd half vs 1st half of the season stats. At pick 9 you are going to have to gamble a bit on a QB. I think Richardson is a gamble work taking, because if you hit it's a freaking homerun.

The Jags were all in on Lawrence and the Bengals were with Burrow. It just means Chicago has a guy they like at QB vs what the draft is offering this year. It makes sense.

No one is expecting him to be our franchise QB. Just a place holder for until our rookie is ready. It could be a game or two or it could be a year. That would be for Reich to decide whenever he thinks the rookie is ready. You aren't going to find a much better QB for that job than Brissett.

Why are you comparing him to Cam? I've heard some Josh Allen vibes with as raw as he is plus his athletic ability. Cam was a pretty solid passer right out of college. Didn't he have like 4000 passing yards his rookie year? No one is expecting that from Richardson. I threw his name out there because he will probably be the 4th QB with Young, Stroud, and Levis off the board before we pick.

None of those were first round picks?? Plus not all of the same crew will be drafting these next few years. You could also argue that Stroud is a ? as well as most QBs drafted.

I lean towards AR with all the extra picks, but there is definitely an argument to be made for Stroud. I will be happy either way.
