You nailed nailed it. After looking at this roster for next year, seeing our cap situation and seeing that this draft lacks super stars at the top but has good depth, I have come to same realization. Build the team, find a competent HC, where that HC finds a stud OC and stop chasing franchise QBs for the time being. When the time is right, snag the QB and stop forcing it. I'm thinking of the Pittsburgh situation when they drafted Big Ben. He had success because while he played good as a rookie, the surrounding parts made him even better. We could go this route or continue the failed Matt Rhule model or sabotage a brand new staff as we have seen in Denver when they sunk most of their resources into Russell Wilson.

We have to after not trading him. I just hope he doesn't break the bank.

Yup, this is Colorado's last several games versus top competition (tied for worst 1-win team in the Power 5) Now here are the Texan's results--the worst team in the NFL: They are not getting blown out. They only lost by 12 points to Philly who has the best record in the NFL.

Yup, I'm all for fortifying the rest of the roster. Getting a solid, even if unspectacular, QB and competent coaching staff that includes an OC with a freaking clue can get this team into the playoffs. Our defense isn't that far off and the offense can be retooled in one off season with several savvy moves in the draft and a couple key FA signings.

True, but then another 2-3 wins would put us in middle of the pack versus those other 4 win teams--as they are not as good or have harder remaining schedules. I want no part of picks 4 through the rest of the top 10. I think there's better value around 10 and back. We don't need linemen as bad as other positions and that's the meat of the crop after Anderson, Young and Stroud. WRs and Mayer will be the choices in that area. Moore needs some help and Lord knows we are severely TE deficient.

Based off SOS and not having a bye yet.

Who? Seriously, no big loss.

Chinn has been out for weeks. He's still getting back into things. However, I've finally settled in on the idea of him being a better LB than safety--at least coverage safety. A box safety I'm okay with.

Yes, accumulative picks. That's why we need to trade back once at minimum, twice is ideal!

Outside of the Texans who had no plan B when Watson forced his way out...much better than us currently.

Totally, many rings do Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Justin Fields, Trey Lance, Mac Jones, Joe Burrow, Tua T., Justin Herbert, Jordan Love, Klyer Murray, Daniel Jones, Dewayne Haskins, Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Josh Allen, Josh Rosen, Mitchell Trubisky, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahommes have...wait, I can finally stop now. You don't EVEN want to see list before Mahommes.

After 5 losing seasons, MAKING the playoffs is a feat unto itself. You seem extremely unimpressed. So in your mind we draft a rookie QB and we are instant Super Bowl contenders? Who is this magic man???

Ask the Jets and Browns how chasing QBs every draft has worked out for them. Hell, the Jets just benched their latest top 5 QB pick. The Browns just paid an NFL record QB contract to a rapist just to get out of the annual QB merry-go-round in the draft.

Where is Mahommes this draft? Please enlighten me. Both Stroud and Young look like crap when they aren't lined up against the Little Sister of the Poor squad on the other side of the ball. When they face real competition, both of them fold like lawn chairs.

How so? I get this is a QB driven league, but a solid roster with a game manager QB can be a playoff team. A solid QB with a dogsh!t roster around him doesn't go very far. Everyone wants a freaking prima donna QB nowadays.

One stupid PR catch attempt and a botched onsides recovery from this thing being a blowout.

A more accurate depiction. We are 8th because we've played one more game than everyone else with four wins due to our bye week being week 13.

You really do buy into the rookie QB hype, don't you? There's not that guy this draft, sorry. Stroud and Young will be average QBs...after a few years. After 5 losing seasons, I can't wait that long.

...AND the reason we can be a playoff team next year with simply a game manager QB if, B-I-G I-F, we can solidify some other key areas. Trade back, get more picks and fill some crucial holes on the roster.

We haven't had our bye yet either.

I remember when I wanted to sign Brissett in FA before he went to the Browns and everyone thought he was garbage. He's LIGHT YEARS better than Baker!

Fug the tankers.

Our DB room their own personal jugs machine.

Did I say Henderson sucks? Got picked by his own player.
