    I hate Philadelphia and their fans with every fiber of my being 

     

    Mahomes is the best player on the field

    Kelce is the second best player on the field

    Reid is the better coach 

     

    but top to bottom the Eagles are a better team. Their corners and CGJ will allow Philly to pressure Mahomes all game and get him scrambling

    Enjoy your trip my man!

    Why don’t you think Sam can be our franchise QB?

    I don't think anyone can be our franchise QB until they become our franchise QB.

    Even with picks unless it's Payton Manning Or Marino coming out (someone that's absolutely can't miss prospect)

     

    If Sam can keep this progression up yes he could be the guy. It's worth an 8mil gamble. If he doesn't pay off you didn't lose anything. 

     

    Vs say Signing Lamar who really hasn't done much losing multiple draft picks and having tons of Cap tied up in one guy is a huge huge gamble.

    Risk vs reward.

    There is as much tape on Corral as there are on any QBs in this draft.  I don't know what the rules are about a coach getting with a player on their own time but Corral has been out of his boot for well over 3 months now and should be able to start throwing and working on his craft.   

    Should Corral and McCown get the opportunity to work some it will greatly help in the decision on whether we HAVE to draft a QB or COULD draft a QB. 

    They're not allowed to talk to players before OTAs.

    If a player was working out in the weight room he wouldn't even be allowed to ask the strength coach questions. 

    It's stupid. Players can't seek out the coaches voluntarily to improve themselves and coaches can't seek out the players.

    I am not sure we have some pretty strange people on here. One guy says he is more physically gifted than AR. Another guy claimed he was top of the league last year. Another guy claimed he will be our starter and continue to progress and develop for the next however many years. Another one claimed he did nothing wrong in his 2.4 QB rating gave. Oh wait….

    First of all he is a better passer than AR15 that's a fact. 

    Second it does take all 11 people doing their job on offense. 

    If he was signed for 8mil like I want and if he improves as much next year as he did this year he'd be great.

    I've said it a thousand times. 

    Draft someone in the next 2 years.

    Sign Sam for pennies 

    Have MC9

    Let the cream rise to the top.

     

    That's a far cry from ZOMG Sign Sam to a 8yr deal 40 mil per.

    I have no problem with Sam as the backup. The number of posters that want him to be our guy going forward is  very confusing. We need to want/expect better from our franchise. Gamble on a 6th year player who still has the same issues or do like most other teams and draft one. It’s really not as complicated as people are making it.

    Nobody on this board has Sam cemented as the future of our franchise.

    I sincerely hope no one here actually hates Brian Burns. He has done absolutely nothing to generate hate much less even casual dislike.

    He is probably the best player on our roster at the moment.

    He is our most talented. 

    Not necessarily our best.

    Unfulfilled potential is the worst. 

     

    I don't hate the man. He seems like a good guy.

    Does this restriction apply until 15 March when free agency begins?

     

    I thought I read no workouts or flim stuff until April 1 but maybe that's only under contract?

     

    I think it's stupid that a guy on his own can't go to a coach and ask for help.

    Let’s not pretend like moving up to the mid 3rd to acquire a QB is some insanely high compliment. They were definitely intrigued by him, but if they thought he was a franchise guy the move would have happened a lot sooner. They gave up what a 4th comp and future 3rd for the trade? Corral has some potential, but our staff isn’t heavily invested in him which is why they are probably scouting QBs again for an early pick.

    What would it take to convince you Reich's staff should commit to Sam Darnold as their veteran QB next season? 

    Surely Reich's staff won't make a decision without doing their own due diligence would they? 

    What would that entail?  

    Review of Sam's previous games seems like a given of course.  In depth Q/A sessions to test his knowledge, decision making skills and response time?  Actual workouts to test his agility, both mental and physical? What else?

    What other tests/research does Reich's staff need to conduct prior to giving Sam Darnold another opportunity to redeem himself?

    Or is Sam Darnold a lost cause?

    I don't think they are allowed to do QA or any testing due to CBA

    IF and I mean IF CJ is the guy we think is the next Burrow, we have to trade up to 1 for him. It would be so easy for another team to jump us if we get to pick 3 or 5. We should probably do it before the draft to prevent any chaos. If we can do it and keep our 25 1st it will be a success IMO. 24 1st is probably certainly gone unless we trade a player like Burns. 

    If you give away 5 picks the cupboard will be bare so what good will he do us?

    Elite passing ability? Can make all the throws? Cam could do all that, yet you said you didn’t want another Cam or anything like him. Cam also had slightly better completion percentages. 

     

    All this is laughable. Your posts, and most of your posts critiquing QBs are hogwash. Just say you like Sam, and those other guys, you didn’t like. 

    Cam in my opinion should have been the Greatest QB to ever live with his tools.

    BTW I consider Bo Jackson the best back I've seen even tho he got hurt so I don't always put longevity into my rankings.

    Come on be honest Cam was a general vicinity passer and you know it most of the time his placement was just a little off. His big miss was always sky high. 

    He was a great player and even better human though. 

    Lol if you think I think Sam Darnold compares to Cam Newton. But at a minimum he could become DA and on the high side Stevie B?

    Wait you think Fields doesn't have the PHYSICAL ability to make elite NFL throws???  He needs to work mentally on reads, footwork etc, but physically he is good to go.  

    No I don't think so. I don't think he can make the layered throws especially the deep out Tampa 2 buster.

    I think Fields throws a good deep ball and has a rocket launcher. He can make some frozen rope dimes. But you can't live on frozen ropes in the NFL they get picked. You have to be able to arc the ball and drop it in.

    I know you aren't saying he's our future but you and others at least in my view seem to give him the benefit of the doubt you don't offer to other QB's. There are other backup tier signal callers we can consider Sam is not the only free agent available. Reich and now Fitterer both have the added and IMO very important perspective of having learned from mistakes of giving highly touted yet underperforming quarterbacks teetering on bust status chance after chance. I think they will look to begin anew. You have to turn the page from mistakes.

    I'm going to try and explain it to you.

    Other backups are typically backups because of physical limitations. High floor ultra low ceiling. 

    Sam has the physical tools. He's worth 8mil easily. But like Scarecrow he needs a brain.

    Frank could be the Wizard he needs
