Todd McShay mocks us to trade up with Miami to get Trey Lance

Im driving the Lance spaceship and always honest. Hes a huge future projection, a big gamble at investing a top ten pick in. What can I say, Im a believer that he will be a legit top tier NFL QB. That system at ND, its a pro system, its a great head-start for the NFL. I do believe he also needs time, maybe not a full year, but hes behind others in this. Hes all ball too, (wait until millions happen..) and thats very important in this super complicated world. Honestly its a perfect fit for Rhule, Teddy, and this current team. Yes teddy has bus marks on his back, still like Lance this team needs to do so growing w/o 10 million Teddy. 

It won't surprise me if he's an All-Pro in five years. On the flip side, it also won't surprise me if he's out of the league in five years. He has boom or bust written all over him.

Every QB in this draft is a huge risk outside of Trevor. Just stay at 8 and take who falls. If the top 4 QBs are gone then draft the best LT available.

I rather live through another season of Teddy than knowing fuging Ron Rivera cost us a first round pick and then some for one meaningless win.

Only reason this team should be considered giving up draft capital is for a proven commodity.

Miami and Cincy are our most likely trade partners. 

We trade with Miami if either Fields or Wilson falls to 3 and we felt strongly they were QB#2 

We trade to 5 if we like all the top 4 equally and are ok getting whoever is there. 

Atlanta is a real key because I truly don't think they are going to take a QB, I see them taking Slater or Sewell. 

Miami really doesn't want to pick at 3 and will want to trade down but if someone doesn't blow them away with an offer they might get stuck taking Devonta at 3. 

Cincy makes a ton of sense to trade with because they will get their guy Sewell or Slater at 8 in all likelihood

The more I learn about Lance, the more I like him and the less I am worried about his 'negatives'. 

I was hoping we had a shot at Lance at 3-5. Dream world he is at 8.  

yea Lance at 8 is basically my number two most desired scenario behind trading for Watson

People need to realize there is a very good chance that he might not be QB4 on our board.  After Trevor there is going to be some variance with the QBs.

Also it seems people are overthinking the Cam comparisons and/or they are just Cam fans who get their feelings hurt if anyone is compared to Cam.

Nobody thinks he is the physical specimen of Cam, he isn't as big. 

What they are saying, is he probably has one of the strongest arms since Cam, that is actually a huge compliment to Cam because there have been a lot of QBs drafted since then.

Also he is one of the best running QBs since Cam, especially when you factor in the ability to run with power.  There are a lot of QBs that can scramble, and have some speed, but what made Cam different was his ability to also run with power.  Here again, huge compliment to Cam, they aren't saying he is as good but you have to go back to Cam to find someone who is similar or better at it.

I would love to draft Trey Lance but that’s a steep price to pay for a guy with a huge risk attached to him. As the Super Bowl showed us, winning at the highest level is more than just good QB play. I’d rather continue to build up a good team and draft or sign another QB later in the draft than give up future assets if the right guy isn’t there.

I really don't get it with Lance.

As I said, I was curious about him after his 2019 season, but the tape doesn't blow you away. 

Why didn't he transfer to a college that was playing football in 2020? I'm sure the NCAA would have waived the need to sit out.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
