What do you mean "this good"?  Its been 2 practices. 

Has a strong arm and a solid brain. For any QB with those two things, they would need something negative to push them out of the first. Too small, injuries, toxic personality or a noodle arm would be reasons reasons viable QB fall and even then we see guy go in the first with concerns.

I’m getting vet qb and drafting newman

Seems like a really lousy investment. We wouldn't be able to resign Moton or Samuels at that point, and we'd have 2 pricey QBs on our roster plus Newman.

I'd rather just draft Newman and let him start or sit and learn than bring in another vet QB for no reason on top of drafting him.

You have Lance in your avatar. Lawrence is by far the best QB in this Draft.

Who do you hate out of Fields and Wilson?

I apparently can't count this morning....hehe. 

Newman would be 5th. 

Personally, I have it as:

Lawerence

Fields | Wilson

Lance

Newman

Jones | Trask

Ditto on a qb working with our staff in developing them but I think Allen is the exception not the rule.  I just think JN is the ultimate project with a ton of flaws in his game.  Big arm sure, but his accuracy and decision making need a lot of fine tuning.  His game against Clemson last year really put things in perspective for me about him.

Yeah he is still pretty raw. Clemson was going to be rough. He leading WR was out and his line/weapons were going against all around superior talent. With that said he still looked pretty bad (no time to throw and no players getting open can do that). I try to look at his games against similar talented teams like UNC, NC St, Louisville, and VT. Didn’t look good against VT, but great in the other 3. Sounds like the potential is there, just needs some coaching/development IMO.

Yes, which proves you're an idiot. Nothing like adding an enormous salary cap hit to your bottom line, and then bringing in another veteran which will give you another big contract, on top of bringing in a rookie who will replace him.

All done for spite, which leaves us without our best offensive linemen, who just so happens to be a tackle, and ensures we also lose an explosive WR.

Are you sure you weren't a previous General Manager for the Lions? Cause you super dumb!

Yeah and said bridgewater was legit lol!

Yep, I said he'd be serviceable and he'd be a great teacher for a young rookie QB we'd bring into replace him. Missed on the first part, but if we bring it a rookie, I won't be about the 2nd.

You do realize that if we draft a QB vs. getting a vet, that Teddy is starting the year under center. Fields, Wilson, Lance, Newman, etc. are not ready to get thrown to the dogs week 1.

That was the plan when he was signed, and I don't see why it wouldn't be the plan for at least the first 40-50% of the season.

      Baker is in a sling…. The division is a 2 horse race!

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Honestly, I view the rest of this season like every game is a division game - meaning you can throw the records out.  Throw the perceived favorites out.  Every week, we have to show up and punch them in their mouth.  We’re gonna have to gut it out.  We can’t go into games against well coached teams and think, “well, the Rams already got that one, McVay is just too good of a coach and they’re too talented.”  “Can’t beat the Niners.  Shanahan is one of the best and they just play everyone so tough, even with injuries.”  We have to go into each game feeling like everyone counted us out and we have to show them why they’re wrong.  And speaking of the Niners - that’s the exact blueprint we need to be looking at - for the last, it seems like at least 5 years, they have been decimated with injuries.  And they still contend to win their division and make a run in the playoffs every year.  Even while starting a plethora of QBs.  Even with their best defensive players being out for the bulk of seasons…  their DNA doesn’t change.  They compete.  Their standard is winning and nothing less, so even if you’re the 3rd stringer forced into action, either show up and play to that level or find another team.  This should be our approach and I think the Saints game was an important wake up call… I occasionally listen to whatever ESPN show is on sports radio in the mornings with Chris Camry and I believe it was after we beat the Packers, they asked him about us and he said, “they’re a young team learning how to win.”  And that is about as accurate or a description as you can get.  It explains the hiccups and the struggles.  But it also explains why it looks so good when we put it all together.  What we need now is our guys to have that light bulb come on as a collective and never look back.  I hope last week was the start of that and it continues tonight and for the rest of the season..

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      By frankw · Posted

      The veterans played better last night and they actually were looking for Kon but Bridges and Sexton went for a combined 2-15 from three. That is so bad.

      https://www.talkbasket.net/206848-lamelo-ball-frustrated-by-hornets-struggles-amid-durability-concerns "Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer." Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.
