I think you should certainly watch every game he played in 2019 to get a better idea of the overall sum, but this is a good place to start. Some very impressive throws outside the numbers and on the move.

You won't have to convince me. Again, Lance was my QB target for this draft going back to the end of the last draft.  The problem is most folks here want Bridgewater gone so badly that they want a rookie to step in and take Teddy's starting spot.  That ain't happening.  Is Wilson more ready to be the day one starter than Lance?  Yes, 100%.  However, Lance will end up being the better pro QB.  He HAS TO sit a year though.  Bridgewater's contract is horrendous that we kill the cap by cutting him, so he here either playing or on the bench.  Might as well play him.  That gives Lance at least a year to adjust to the speed of the game at this level and get a good idea how to read NFL defenses.

I’m wanting Lance or Fields, but would be happy with Wilson. Fields can take a minute to throw the ball, but he never really had a reason to adapt. He is a great athlete who can (usually) avoid pressure. He lost what 2 games as a starter? Anyway he seems to have great work ethic and a good head on his shoulders. (Loved when we took the high road about Dabo). I see no reason why he won’t be coachable/adapt at the next level. Anyone we draft can sit behind Teddy until they are ready. 

Fields only loss was the Clemson last season. Avenged it this season but will likely get a second loss on the 11th against Bama.

Top 20 for Fields is an understatement. If you watched that whole Clemson game, you understand why I say that. He's a leader and tough as nails. Also has a great deep ball and very mobile. He won't get out of the top 6 mark my words.

He’s going to be the second pick in the draft.

I think so too, but you never know. Especially if they want to trade back and get picks to build around Darnold for one more tryout year.

Right but then I’d think the team that is trading up to 2 would be taking Fields at 2 anyway

Wilson is a less downs looking version of Pickles... it’s why I don’t want him 

Lol that’s exactly what I thought, I really don’t see the hype in him honestly. I hope we don’t draft him at all and definitely ain’t moving up for him.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
