I’m not wanting to do any restructures if possibly. Trade Shaq (if you can) and extend Burns to a lower hit. This year will be about getting our rookie and HC acclimated and next year should look better for FA spending to plug around our new QB.

Which rookies came out playing well? Baker Mayfield, Mac Jones, Kyler Murray, Joe Burrow, Cam Newton just off the top of my head. Listen, I'm not saying that Stroud or whoever will be a pro bowler right away just better than dead last in the league and the performances Baker and Co have put out this year with McAdoo. It's a pretty low bar... Yeah they beat the Bucs who really haven't beast anyone aside from Dallas early in week 1. Talking about who has been who in week 6 is premature anyway. My point in comparing the point differential is we aren't far off from being competitive. I used your team as an example because they always are competitive. (I'm also not convinced you aren't a closet Panther's fan). My point is we have hung around with several teams. Our defense wears down because our offense is a complete mess. We can't even get the ball to our WRs right now to see how good they are. Do you really think if we replaced Rhule/McAdoo with a decent coach and Baker/Darnold with a talented rookie we would still lose to Cleveland, and NYG? Both games were lost by a FG. It's perfectly logical to think if we upgrade our QB and HC next year we can be competitive. Will we have some holes on our roster still? Yes, but a majority of the NFL does.

That's a big point. Our offense has been so incompetent it's hard for us to gage how good these young players like TMJ, Tremble, Shi and others can be. I mean DJ with a capable QB/OC would be interesting to see in itself.

I'm only ok if we get a good return. First round plus. We will need CMC to help with a rookie QB's growing pains.

The Jags already had the most important position correct. So we will go from the 32nd ranked QB in the 32nd ranked offense to the top ranked rookie QB behind a solid ranked OL with a top RB and (hopefully) a huge upgrade at HC. Our defense is good enough to compete as is. Horn, Chinn, Burns, and Brown are a solid young foundation that should be better as the get older and better coaching. You act like we are getting blown out. The Niners gave it to us, but we hung around with everyone else. You don't think an upgrade at QB (the most important position in sports) and HC could have changed the outcome in those games? Hell our point differential is better than your steelers with their HoF coach.

Yes something is clearing wrong. We have the worst staff in the league and our QB situation is terrible to go along with it. The Jags were the worst team last year WITH a decent young QB because their coach was that bad. Just a new coach has them competitive again. Yeah they are 2-4 but they are playing teams much closer. Give us a competent QB AND HC and we should see a decent improvement in that alone. Again we won't be top of the league, but at least competitive again.

Honestly the reaction means he struck a nerve. Robbie is a Cardinal now and should be focused on that and building a relationship with Murray, not what a former player on his former team is saying on a podcast…

Wooten? What did I miss?

We have a good young OL, a top RB, a top pass rusher, a shut down CB, plus Brown is making a big jump this year. That’s a great start for a rookie QB to work with plus players like Moore, DJax, Shaq, Chinn and Woods who are better than average. Our roster is young and will play even better with some real coaching.

Shaq would relieve some cap next year I believe? We need to see what Brandon Smith can do…

Baylor?? Rhule is calling in moves from his home…

Most teams aren’t going to have complete rosters. The hope is that our new coach can get the best out of our JAGs like the new coach is doing in NYG. Hopefully we draft a QB in the first which can immediately upgrade our offense from this poo show. We need players like Brandon Smith, TMJ, Shi Smith, YGM, Tremble, Thomas etc to player better with a coach that can play them to their strengths. We obviously aren’t jumping from worst to first, but hopefully can get to be competitive again next year.

We have to extend Burns right?

Am I reading the Saints cap correctly??!

That’s fair, but it’s hard to hold it against him that he has played so well he has never really had to face adversity. It’s more of a question mark than a negative IMO. Even in their 2 losses last year he still played great.

This is what I don’t understand. We have one of the worst cap situations and are the worst team in the league. There is no way he had nothing to do with it. He was all excited about the Darnold trade and the Robbie extension. If he somehow had NOTHING (which seems unlikely) to do with this situation, how can anyone say anything good about him? He would be basically a PR person for Rhule…

Tepper has already said he wants an offensive minded young coach. There is no way Fitt gets to pick one without Tepper’s input.

Tepper is. You trust Tepper?

Corral had AJ Brown and Elijah Moore. His offense was designed where he knew where the ball was going before the snap or it was a RPO with only one or two passing options. This is why he struggled as a rookie. He has to learn how to sit back and go through progressions which is why he is considered a project QB. Also Ole Miss is looking just fine without him. That’s all Kiffin. Yeah Stroud has a loaded team and he puts up insane numbers to match it. He sits in the pocket and goes through his reads. Burrow has an insanely loaded roster in college and put up big numbers Same for Mac Jones. It’s not like Stroud isn’t throwing against NFL CBs in the Big10. He checks every box you want in a QB.

Does this mean we will score TDs on offense?? That seems odd...

Yeah mock him for dropping passing, whining about fans booing, not performing after getting paid, calling Sir Purr a bear. Plenty of material there. His hair and register of speech doesn’t really matter.

This man has done alright for himself.

His hair and HOW he talks does not. Sometimes WHAT he says can come off stupid or annoying.

Stroud will like that.
