We need to get him, he would be a heck of an upgrade 

I don't care about "getting an upgrade," the focus needs to be on building a roster that dominates the conference for the long term, with an elite franchise QB

This Also means abother team ahead of us in the Draft will be going after a QB

 

 

That Win for the Culture is looking great now, right 

If we lose out on the top 4 QB. I rather we trade back get as many picks as possible. Build a stronger foundation and go all out for  Howell or Rattler

If Watson really doesn't want to come here, then this makes sense.   Stafford throwing to our guys could be fun to watch.

I just worry about our offensive line and protecting him.

The good news is we wouldn't have to give up a butt load of 1st round picks and a top player or two of our own.  Makes it easier to build the lines.  If we could keep this years first in the deal I could get behind it.

At 32 he can play at a high level for up to 4 more years and we can be better set up for a Franchise QB in the coming years. If another team snags him first I feel getting Zack Wilson should be the best realistic draft option. 

If he can stay healthy I agree. I’ll hate to give up draft picks while we have a lot of holes to fill for home to be on the sideline holding the clipboards.

I don’t understand the idea of getting a 33-year-old quarterback who is probably looking at the backside of his career. This reminds me of going to get Teddy Bridgewater when all we need to do was find a quarterback we can build a franchise around. This just seems like a Band-Aid and what we really need is a skin graft.

Draft a rookie QB and prep him for his career behind Teddy B. for half or all season.

l don't mind Stafford coming here if it's for nothing big. If we can't get Watson, Stafford could come in and probably have a good year just from the change of scenery and better talent around him. I can't see him lasting longer than a year, we need to have his replacement in this draft if we go the Stafford route.

Stafford probably has another 5-6 years in him. We have McCaffrey signed for 5 years. We also have weapons for Stafford on the outside.

We can use picks to build our line and secondary. The rest of the defense is young. 

Saints in cap hell, Brees retiring. 

Falcons in bad cap, Ryan about done.

Bucs can't keep everybody, several older guys nearing the end including Brady.

Seems to set up for a nice little run

    • I believe I just read somewhere that the Rams don't do Top 30 Visits. I mean, it makes sense from the standpoint of trying to keep information close to the vest.
    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
