Mj been taking a lot of vacations recently, so I bet all of the 2nds we just got are all going to be given away for "cash considerations".

Weather we do something dumb or smart I fully expect the NBA to cut too commercial during both of our picks.

I fully believe that either Baker or Jimmy G will be our starter on opening day. Rhlue knows that he's on the hot seat and starting Darnold will almost certainly get him fired. All this faking pumping up of Darnold's confidence is just in case we might actually have to start him this season. While I love corral's talent, he's going to need time to learn how to run an NFL offense before he's game ready. I'd prefer us take a chance on baker because he would come cheaper and maybe the big dose of humble pie he got from the NFL will change him and allow him to hit his full potential. Jimmy G is just a more attractive Teddy Bridgewater with a bum shoulder.

Horn was in the slot a good bit in his 2 1/2 games last year so having CJ and Keith Taylor to rotate on the outside when horn moves into the slot is gonna make us very good in the secondary along with Chin and woods.

Baker is better than Darnold, so I do think that the interest is legit, but we aren't gonna pay anything of value to get him knowing that Baker is never gonna play for the browns again and they'll end up having release him. We've probably given the browns an offer of two rusty nickels Fitter found in the parking lot and we'll pick up 4-5m of his salary and told the browns to take it or leave it. The only leverage that the browns have is that they know we want baker, and we don't want to have to start Darnold this year, so they are gonna hold on to him to the very last second to give Baker no time to learn the playbook here and hope that we will come up on our offer to get baker in here sooner. The talks have most likely stopped, and each side is just waiting for the other to cave in.

Yes, we should bring him back on a cheap contract and take the gamble that he can stay healthy. With darnold probably being the QB we need all the playmakers we can get around him to take the pressure off of him. And plus, him and Dj's friendship is just wholesome

You had me until that I think Rhule can be a solid coach at the NFL level but it's hard to give a true evaluation with the garbage we've had under center the past 2 years. Just think how the whole perception of the franchise would be if the chargers didn't take Hebert ahead of us in the 2020 draft. But I guess there's always that slight glimmer of hope that maybe Macdoo can unlock this hidden potential that NFL evaluators think that Darnold has.

Just resign Cam and have a three-way QB battle in camp and let the best player play.

CMC is at his best when he is 1 on 1 with a defender and in the open field. If we can stop running him up the middle 20 times a game like he's Jonathan Stewart, then I think he has a good shot to stay healthy. I'd be ok if he dropped back down to his rookie year weight and played the same role he did as sort of an offensive weapon lining up all over the field instead of just at RB and force the defense into some tough match ups.

Sam hasn't earned the right to be declared the day 1 starter. It should be an open competition from the start and the best QB should play. This will be the first time darnold has faced any real competition from a backup and it'll be interesting how he responds. Because you can bet that Corral is gonna come in and compete.

lol

Cam isn't what he used to be but he's a better option than trading for a jimmy or baker.

Interesting

I'm not sold on a baker trade but man if he comes in and plays well then you can bet, he's going to take Rhule to the cleaners and ask for some ridiculous contract. Baker also doesn't seem like the kinda guy to accept the franchise tag either.

Let's for hypothetical reasons we trade for Baker and he put's up something close to his 2020 numbers (30td and 4,000 passing yards) would you be ok with giving him 30-35m a year on his extension. A healthy Baker isn't a bad QB but if he plays well he would absolutely have this organization by the balls in contract negations. If he puts up good numbers then we are probably too far down in the draft to get Bryce young or Cj stroud.

I know he's washed but I'd 100% rather watch Cam with a full off season and a revamped Oline than trading assets for Baker or an injured Jimmy G.

I think the pick should be a LT or a gamble on the potential of Willis. Drafting Icky or Neal at 6 is the best move for us long term as it won't handcuff the next coaching staff with a 2nd year QB they didn't draft. Let Rhule try and save his job with either Sam or a veteran like Jimmy G.

Watch Neal and Icky go in picks 1-4 and the saints trade up to 5 for cross. We get Willis or and I pray this doesn't happen, but Rhule runs to the podium for Trevor Penning

It was criminal how they limited him to only screens and half field reads at Oregon. I still though couldn't see how people thought Tua was better especially after the hip injury.

I know just a reference to all the anti-Herbert takes at the time only for him to become a top 10 QB in his 2nd year,

I don't know if Darnold can be salvaged but what I do know is that we are stuck paying him 18 million this year with what looks to be a lame duck HC. It doesn't seem so bad to fix the Oline and improve the overall talent of the team while we ride out the last year of Rhule. I personally want us to take Willis. I like his attitude and his top tier arm and athleticism I think he has that "it" factor and if he can be developed, he's going to be special. However, I do understand the argument for just letting this year go and allowing a new staff handpick a QB in what looks to be a loaded class next year.

We haven't had a LT since Gross retired at the end of 2013. We had one good random season from Oher in 2015 and the rest have been mediocre. If we can somehow get a team to trade up and recoup some draft capital and still nap a Charles Cross so we can finally solve the long-standing question of "can he play LT?" then I'm ok with our punishment of watching Darnold next year. Who knows maybe the whole "He's only 24" thing turns out to be good and he actually develops into something that resembles an NFL starting QB. Then the whole huddle worships Ben Mcadoo for the next 9 months.
