The Lions drafted him. Vikings traded a 2nd and 3rd for him since Cousins is locked in at QB.

My hope a team falls in love with Levis and drafts him at one or two and we can possibly swap with Arizona at 3 for Stroud. It also works if Chicago stays put drafts DL and Houston drafts Young. From 9 to 3 wouldn't break us as much as 9 to 1 IMO.

I think you can dismiss it and get like one article a day. It basically states Fitt is well respected around the league and easy to work it which is why we are able to land so many interviews.

Yeah not interested. I was reading where we are able to get so many interviews because Fitt is considered easy to work with and well liked around the league. Full control plus loss of picks for a HC that knows he can step away whenever he wants and have a nice salary as an analyst just sounds like a terrible move. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article271149142.html

Sam Howell and Spencer Rattler were considered top picks before their last seasons (yeah Rattler is still in college, but his value has dropped like crazy). Jake Locker was considered the top pick as well. Van Dyke in Miami looked like the real deal before this past season. One season can change a lot. It’s probably more rare for a QB with a loaded roster like OSU to drop, but it can happen. A major injury for example could do it.

Yeah they treated a future third (which doesn’t hold the same present value as a current 3rd) and that late 4th pick. That doesn’t seem like much value for a potential starting QB. We were “interested” when he fell in the 2nd, but still didn’t want to give up more than a future third.

A mid 3rd round pick for a solid backup isn’t a wasted pick. Hell several of these playoff teams have leaned on their backup QBs to get here.

They didn’t go into the season banking on Purdy to be their QB. He was the THIRD option. No one is saying cut Corral, just that he shouldn’t be our top or main option at QB. We need to draft one and sign a vet. If Corral works out it’s a nice bonus.

It looked like other players were past the sticks. He just checked down to play it safe…

Did Cousins check down on 4th and 8??

WTF are pass rushers suppose to do now?

There are very few QBs I would trade multiple first round picks for AND sign them to a 250 million GUARANTEED contract. Lamar (as good as he is) is not one of them...

He would have them fired up against us though….

I wonder if they make a play for Wilks at DC if we don’t hire him…

I wouldn’t be surprised either way. Johnson has no ties to Sam and Sudfeld would know his offense/how he wants to run things more than any QB not named Goff. Plus he will be pretty cheap…

Sudfeld knows his offense and would be much cheaper. It just depends on how confident Johnson is in him. Darnold was a Rhule reclamation project. Looking decent in Wilk’s power running offense doesn’t really prove much unless Johnson is wanting to run something similar. New coaches like to bring in some of their own guys.

Nate Sudfeld is Detroit’s backup and is a FA this offseason. I wouldn’t be surprised if we sign him for cheap abs draft one at 9.

All about that Johnson!

lol Colts….

If Fitt likes him and they keep a traditional GM/HC power/relationship then I’m good with Johnson. He had Goff looking fantastic as the QB position and helped the Lions running game/offense as a whole. If he can grab a nice vet for his DC that would be a great bonus.

I think we take AR or trade up for Stroud if he drops to around 3-5ish. That’s of course assuming Stroud declares.
