Looks like it’s going to be a FULL SEND boys on quarterback because Tepper has realized teddy ain’t it.. and theirs a reason why they made teddy’s contract cutable and before you guys start saying Wilson go look at the full game on YouTube of him playing against Coastal Carolina

Eh, one game isn’t going to make me not want him. Same thing with Lance or Fields. I would still take all 3 in a heartbeat.

Also Wilson didn't play bad at all that game. His receivers dropped a ton of passes, his line didn't block, and he was still within a yard of winning. 

BYU as a whole played bad, but Wilson was one of the few who didn't.

I don't think this is some grand pronouncement.  Very few players should be comfortable with their job security on a 4-10 team, and everything in the NFL begins with the Quarterback.

Outside of CMC, Robby, DJ, Moton (who we better keep), Burns, Chinn, Brown, & Shaq (while you might not agree with the contract, he has been good and he definitely is in the team plans next year), there is no one on the team that should be automatically slotted as a starter.

I like Teddy, but objectively he has regressed since that knee tweak.  Right now it's hard to see a wide gap in play between Teddy and what we had last year with a 2nd-year UDFA in Kyle Allen.

It's not conducive to winning football.

I don't know if the draft is the best option given our other needs (unless there is a guy they feel confident in outside of Trevor Lawrence cause we ain't getting him), but we can't go into next year IMO with Teddy as the unquestioned starter.

That being said, while I don't think Teddy can get us to a Super Bowl, he's probably going to be on the team next year, and with a decent chance of starting.

I do honestly believe had CMC been healthy all year, we are closer to 8-8 than not (although it's better for us long-term to have a higher draft pick this year).

So the question becomes, should we continue to add to the team with Teddy or another FA QB, or go for broke and draft what we hope will be another franchise QB.  

I do believe Teddy can get a team to 10-11 wins in the right circumstances.  A whiff on a QB that you spend top 5 draft capital on can set you back years.

It is a tough decision.  And as fans, there are a million opinions.  All we can do is hope Rhule, Tepper, and whoever else can get it right.

Inside sources say tepper is demanding we trade up for Lawrence.

You have to have a willing partner to do so.  

Lawrence would be amazing for this franchise (and any other) from not only a football standpoint but it would be a marketing coup for Tepper with the Clemson ties.

Jacksonville is not blind to this, either.  If I'm the owner of the Jags (Shahid Khan), I'm threatening to fire anyone who jeopardizes the Jaguars tank the last 2 games.

Unfortunately, I don't believe even with Tepper's money he is going to be able to work this deal

Jags haven't had any luck as QB in the draft for the past... ever, why would that start now?

I'm 100% positive they will give it another shot with Lawrence.

Seriously, if the Panthers were in the same situation as the Jaguars, would you consider any trade to not draft Lawrence?  I don't think I would.

What would KC trade Mahomes for right now?  There is no amount.

If Lawrence has a chance to be that good, there simply is no justification from a football standpoint.

And given where they are as a franchise, they need the spark of drafting a guy like Lawrence more than draft picks.

I really do hope the Panthers inquire about trading up for Lawrence, I just honestly don't see any scenario where the Jaguars even consider trading the pick, much less considering what it would take in terms of draft capital to do so and how much it could potentially handcuff the Panthers going forward.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked.

      think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
