Don't get suckered into highlight videos with wide open WRs. Young was hitting open targets at Bama too. I think I saw one tight window throw for a TD and that was inside the 10 yard line...so short. Ward is hands down the best QB in this class. That said, he's not close to a generational QB.

You don't follow the draft do you? For every Daniels and Stroud there are 10 busts. Hell, you don't have to look no further than our team. This is NOT a good QB class. I'm BPA, unless it's a QB. Free agency is he way to go and wait until '26 when the QB class will be much better.

New contract incoming!

We will be set up just to fail just like when we took Gerber two drafts ago and didn't have the supporting cast around him. I mean Tepper loves repeating the same mistakes, so I don't see why he would stop now. This team is so bad that we will have a top 5 or top 10 pick in '26 anyway--vet or rookie QB next year, it doesn't matter. My contention is build the team and get the rookie QB in a seemingly much deeper QB in '26. Hopefully by then we have more pieces on the team to help the rookie. If we go the veteran route and the dude is at lest decent, we don't have to rush the rookie into the lineup right away in '26.

People are getting it now. I am seeing this posted more and more. Obviously, I am in complete agreement.

I learned my lesson with RSO QBs. Never trust them, despite the hype. They are simply to raw for the NFL.

Someone need to tell Bryce all dives are garbage time drives. See if that helps..

You were pretty close until the garbage time drive. So for 98% of the game you just about nailed it. He did have that short field TD on the opening drive.

Also remember, in the age of NIL, underclassmen aren't as in a hurry to declare as they used to be. So some of the Juniors like Milroe, Allar, Nussmeir, Moss and Weigman (RSo) are likely to stay in college. I think these guys still have an eligible year from COVID too. Only your redshirt seniors will certainly declare. Ward, Ewers, Howard and Gabriel--Rouke (GR). A few interesting true seniors., but purely as depth like Dart, McCord, Leonard and Rogers. I'm not sure if Sanders has any years left, but if he does, I bet he stays to help his dad continue to build that Buffs program. That family doesn't need the money in any hurry.

Exactly. We need to stay put and take a non-QB or trade back and do the same thing if wed can find a trading partner. Edge is a HUGE need. We need to find our next Peppers in this draft.

Huh? The '26 draft might end up being almost as deep as the '24 draft. THIS draft is the slim pickings one. No generational talent and 2-3 dudes that look pretty good. That's it.

You have to look at who needs a QB. The only obvious team is the Raiders. We need to fleece them like the Bears fleeced us. Prime and son in Vegas with the Raiders, that tradition and those uniforms. C'mon man, we could get the bag!

I love how he continues to call plays behind the sticks on 3rd and 4th downs. Brilliant!

We start him until Dalton's thumb heals, then it's Andy's team again. End of story.

Better? I guess. His first two games were putrid. I have better standards than slightly above putrid, though. A short field TD on the opening drive. One big boy throw in the next 3 quarters combined. Then the garbage time drive we all know he's capable of.

Their QB also had 326 yards passing as well. A rookie against a pretty solid Bears defense. It can be done, just not here.

Dude is the king of stat padding in garbage time. I called it earlier and said he'd probably lead a TD drive at the end of the game--when it didn't matter.

Bryce's 29 yard pass I have on good authority that squirrel is blind.

Which is why it was so dumb not to trade him before he bombed again. Sure, he might get us a garbage time TD. Big whoop.

Dudes this draft hoping they are NOT the #1 overall pick. Heck, I'd take a paycut to stay off this team.

D-E-S-P-E-R-A-T-I-O-N!

Nah, we will draft another promising QB in April with a top 5 pick and ruin the poor guy's career. Tepper can't help himself.

Preach! Tepper is constantly trying to build this backwards. Build the team, THEN insert the QB.

Yup. I was iffy on him, but higher than most on here. Nix is showing he's more than a system QB, which was his knock coming out of Oregon. He more athletic than people give him credit for.
