Yep and everyone talks about how well run they are. If we are smart we will do the same. I bet the Steelers draft a QB.

Bailey Zappe had even more yards and TDs. If you are going off that he is your guy.

Yeah the Rams were a QB away from winning it all. Their team was loaded and already made several runs. Teams like that makes sense to trade away picks for a QB. A team with a ton of holes in its roster would be stupid to make this move.

I can’t understand why we are so determined to not draft a QB. Teddy, Stafford, Sam, Watson these things rarely work out and require a lot of assets to make it work (for the good ones). Let your scouts do their job and draft one, if he busts try it again in a few years. If we did this last year and drafted Fields we wouldn’t be missing picks and have money tied up in Darnold…

Yes that’s the allegations that are the most alarming to me.

Burrow is another example as well. Not an elite arm, small hands, not super fast but can read a defense and is dedicated to get better each offseason. If you can capture both like a Mahomes/Rodgers it gets real fun.

I get that. OJ was innocent in the court of law, Big Ben was never found guilty, nor was Ray Lewis. Watson’s case is a “he said, she said” case. You can’t convict people on those. There is still a civil case and that’s a lot of women for it to be a set up. There are text messages of him apologizing to one of them, so there is some smoke there as well. Maybe he thought he was paying for something else? Maybe not? It was enough of an issue for him not to get traded or play last year and still might get suspended multiple games for conduct.

Watson’s contract is going to eat up our salary cap. We already have dead money/cap issues. If we trade for him we will have no picks and no money for Free Agents. It will be a one main show and he will probably get injured behind our line with our shitty coaches.

Ok? I think the concern is more trying to force sex to someone who isn’t expecting it and not willing to do it. If he paid for it and both parties were ok with it from the beginning than yeah I don’t most people having a problem with that.

IF any of them are fabricating that is a terrible thing to do to any person. As someone stated it’s makes a difficult situation even more difficult for victims.

I saw a nice trade that was CMC to Buffalo for a first and Darryl Williams. Sign a OG like Schreff, Tomlinson, or Norwell and we will have BC, Norwell, Elf, Williams, Moton with two first round picks. We could draft a LT upgrade and QB in the draft and gave a much better looking offense to build on. It leaves a lot of options like Cross and Howell (BC becomes depth), Willis and a top OL with the late first etc…

Agreed you need a little of both. Kirk Cousins is great at reading defenses, but lacks some ability that could really make defenses pay. But you are right reading a defense is more important than raw ability. These coaches get overexcited about raw ability because they think they can coach/develop them into reading the defense/the X’s and O’s and sometimes they can (see Allen), but more than not they can’t. Since you can’t coach/develop a QB into having raw ability like arm strength, speed etc they get caught up in the pure potential of these athletically gifted QBs.

I’m just not sure if rippadon likes him or not. I can’t tell…

Doesn’t matter if he can’t read a defense. He might have more “talent” than Brady, but it’s meaningless…

Interesting stat comparisons. I think his biggest negative is he only had one good season in his 4 as a starter. I kind of prefer Willis because of his upside, or a trade down and get Howell but I’m definitely not against Kenny.

So what’s your take on Strong?

A team that trades away these assets to acquire him should only be a QB away from a Super Bowl. Teams like the Titans, Saints, Bucs make WAY more sense than us.

We gave up more for…..

Imagine if Derwin James stays healthy…

I’m an Auburn fan and Bo Nix is a solid college QB. He played very well at home and won over the locker room pretty quickly. His dad was an Auburn QB so the school/fans were pushing for him pretty early on. I bet he takes the starting job at Oregon. It’s not really that relevant anyway because Willis was his own worst enemy at the time. He himself has said he had a lot of maturing/growing up to do when he transferred (reminds me a little of Cam going to Jr College to mature). He had Liberty ranked his second year there and took out a VA Tech team that had no business beating. https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/auburn-football/malik-willis-on-his-time-at-auburn-i-was-so-immature/amp/ There is an article to read about it if you are interested.

The big two are Stroud/Young, the others are high potential guys but still have something to prove. People are also going to question Stroud being from OSU’s system (I think it’s a dumb argument) and Young have a loaded team and being undersized. If it was 2020 Howell this year, he would be the top pick. Banking on next year is still not full proof because we don’t know what will happen over the college season and we don’t know where we will be picking/who will be ahead of us.

I’d be ok with this or drafting one. Two options that won’t set us back too much. Your option is definitely the safest. I’m ok with taking some risk on a QB on only using ONE first round pick (possibly even a trade down).

They had Howell and Rattler as the top 2 picks. His point was a long cab change in a year.
