  1. 1. Is it possible?

    • No, he'll be off the board
      9
    • Possible, but not necessarily our primary need right now
      40
    • Possible, and a good pick because we need someone to push Cam (and maybe start in 2019 or late 2018)

I do not understand the WR talk at all. Why convert a Heisman QB to WR in a league where playing WR is getting harder and playing QB is getting easier? Madness, IMO.

I need some more info on this. That's a very bold statement. I feel like these work hand in hand. A good WR makes a QB's jobs easier (See Foles) and a good QB makes a WR's job easier (See every patriot WR and Jimmy G. with 49ers).

 

We are in a league that is full of bubble screens, quick hits, and drags. Not sure how that makes it more difficult on the WR's.

No reason at all to make this move unless the plan is to demolish the roster and start rebuilding. We need a backup QB but not a potential replacement QB. I suspect Jackson will end up as a top 15 pick because so many teams are hungry for QB's this year. 

Also, I think the talk of him moving to WR is pretty goofy. If people question Jackson's ability to be an NFL QB for the reasons that they do, I do not understand why they go ga-ga over Darnold or Allen. None of those three is a surefire HR as a QB prospect in the NFL.

QB is the biggest roll of the dice in the game.  The only way you spend a first round pick on a QB is if you don't already have one.  We have one. 

I don't disagree that we should always be alert for the opportunity to pick up a QB later in the draft, but he first couple rounds should bring us players who will play for us next season.

      well, he all but indicated that in his press conference   He wanted his passing offense to ‘come alive’  however, there  where so many mistakes on offense besides Bryce, per film review done by some podcasters I respect in the All 22   Young, missing reads, throwing off his back foot continuously, late with throws    We are in year 3….enough receivers and Young thinking it’s one route and it was another  Tet dropping critical passes…I’ll tell ya, I’m over this one.  Top 10 pick, pretend you are Malik neighbors or Jefferson and catch the damned ball …and the ever so popular Legette, ballerina that he is, stepping out of bounds,,again they need a veteran receiver out there and they don’t have it…I get the concept of wanting young and the receivers to grow together but young has to grow first, and it is ending year 3   One thing about Thielen, he was always where he was supposed to be, he seldom dropped passes and he had no problem keeping his feet in bounds  What these guys do in practice together, no idea

      If you trot Brycie out there again next year or pick up his option there will be some serious dissention among the troops. Who is going to put forth effort while getting their bodies busted up only to know we really don't have a chance at winning. They know he is terrible. I only  saw 2 wins on the schedule at the beginning of the year and our record is a fluke. I'm as surprised as anybody. Trying to win with Brycie is like trying to win the Daytona 500 in a Ford Escort.

      Honestly, with McVay as HC and Matt having the year of his life, Williams doesn’t matter I've watched the rams a lot this year and the line gives ,Matt time, puca and davante are constantly open and if they aren’t the TEa are. McVay  plus a healthy stafford equals Super Bowl if that defense can hold up
