Thoughts on Grayson McCall from Coastal Carolina?

Wait, there was something going on with Watson this offseason. I remember hearing his name come up for some non football related issues…. Anyone able to look into this to confirm it??

Pickett has looked good. I heard the commentators during his game against UT say he spent this offseason working with Manning at his camp. The bad news is I think he is playing his way into the first round…

Good take! No one has mentioned this yet…

If there isn’t any sort of punishment I don’t see someone like him stop doing what he does. He may try to be more discrete because of the publicity he got but yeah I think he will continue to do it.

I don’t know if it means we are officially done with him. If a chance to greatly upgrade a position becomes available we would be dumb not to look into it. If Aaron Donald became available and we traded Brown (plus more) for him, it doesn’t mean we really gave up on Brown, just had an opportunity to get better.

He looked fine last game. He also has a terrible line and no weapons (although Waddle is starting to look good) and STILL looked solid. Over 300 yards 2 TDs and 1 INT with 70% completion rate while having injured ribs in London. His top running back had like 20 rushing yards…

I’d rather have Tua… He seems less rapey

Maybe I’m dumb or maybe it’s the alcohol talking or maybe I’m dumb, BUT if the Dolphins get Watson we should consider getting on a three team trade and getting Tua. I know behind our line he will get injured, but hear me out. He can back up Darnold until we fix our line this offseason (hopefully) and Tua has more promise than any QB in this class IMO. In on every deal right?

If we want value like this, DJax is the way to go. His contract is up and he will want money while we have so many other options at CB. He is having a great year, but I think Reddick’s pass rush is helping our CBs look better. I’d rather spend our money in the trenches vs the secondary. If I had to chose, I’d trade Jackson and extend Reddick. Same reason I wasn’t high on the Robbie contract. We have plenty of options at WR and need to spend money on OL.

He was playing on another level this year. We infused talent around him and he stepped up. Look at our defense without him…

The eye test is great because you can just make up poo. According to my eye test Mac Jones is the fastest QB in the NFL.

Yeah he might be here because we have few other options…

We seem to have a lot of CBs…

How is Dalvin Cook going to sit there while Jaycee Horn is pushing around one of his fans???

Yes! A backup with some decent potential. His mobility is worrisome…

If he continues to play well, do we let DJax walk or sign/trade him?

Zero problems? I said it was “serviceable” at best. It’s nearly the same line Teddy had last year. They aren’t good, but neither is Darnold. He’ll do good to throw more TDs than INTs at this rate. He had issues at USC, same issues at NYJ, and now the same here. Three step hitches and release for our entire offense? Oh good then Darnold should be one of the top at getting rid of the ball right? He is not in the lower half of the league at holding on to the ball right?

How are the FA G/C looking this offseason? I wouldn’t be against paying up for one or two and drafting a QB. I know people won’t like this, but we can sign/trade DJax for draft capital too. Henderson should be getting healthy, Taylor looks good, and Horn will come back. We might sign Gillmore to a longer deal too…

I’m indifferent, but two years with two different GMs seems like a short leash. However Tepper might not be that patient.

I don’t get it. Unless Darnold starts progressing fast, why would anyone WANT to try it again with him next year. When he is bad he is real bad, and defenses know putting pressure on him is the way to beat us. I think he is a nice guy and a tough football player. He just shouldn’t be our QB1 if he keeps playing like this….

He was “hurried” around 1 out of 3 dropbacks. So 66% of the time he had time and a clean pocket (not great I know). Our line played serviceable against the Vikings. Eagles was a whole level of awful. So do our WRs suck all the sudden or is our line terrible or is the OC that we liked last year awful now? That’s a lot of excuses to protect one individual. Our line isn’t good, but played well enough last Sunday. Our WRs were considered a strength this season. Joe Brady is having some issues, but part of it is also not trusting his QB. I’m fine with moving on from Brady and Darnold if this continues.

There are always passes that can get the WRs hurt because we don’t know what the defense is running. It’s up to the QB to process what’s happening and throw his guy open or make the next read. It’s up to the OC to make adjustments if there isn’t anything there. We are failing at both.

I mean both Robby and DJ are some what proven players. Marshall and Shi where great at making tough catches in college. Something was off for there to be that many drops from different players. Maybe it was the plays, maybe it was the throws but I’m going with a little of both. I think Rhule is just getting a heavy dose of realizing he isn’t one of the smartest coaches in this league (at least not yet). Darnold was acquired for cheap assets for a reason. There was a huge (and probable) risk. This is why it was dumb to not have some sort of backup and go all in on him.

We were winning that Eagles game with our defense. Just don’t throw 3 picks and we win. Is that too much to ask? I’m not saying our team in just a QB away. I’m just saying Darnold isn’t the answer to our QB problem. Interior offensive line is definitely an issue. Erving is just meh and injury prone and needs to be replaced as well. Linebackers not named Shaq are weak and we could use a ball hawk safety. OC obviously has been brought up by many as well. QB is just the most important with offensive line being a close second.
