We seem to be mentioned in every rumor or discussion whenever just about any player (particularly QBs) is brought up. I hope that we have an actual plan in mind and aren't just out there desperately trying to get anyone with a name and a pulse to join the team.

All of these mentions could simply be tons of twitter wannabe journalists just parroting each others' ginned-up rumors, or they could be a serious sign that our front office/coaching just isn't ready for primetime. We could also be thoughtfully making inquiries everywhere to set a smokescreen and to sow chaos.

Sure hope it's to sow chaos and that we really have a plan in place.

I have to admit this front office is scaring me . I don’t like none of these qbs they hold in high regard . None of them . I bet we wanna trade the 8th pick for him too huh 

Fritterer is keeping true to his "we will be in on every deal". Doesn't necessarily mean we will make an offer on Darnold

Why would you gauge interest on someone who isn’t good ? I’m cool with seeing what the market is but usually when you reach out you have some type of interest in having that guy on the team . Idk they seem desperate like i said a couple weeks ago. Rhule came in and said we gonna rebuild this gonna take a while. Now they all over the place tryna rush the process which one is it ?

This isn't the case but if they find out the Jets are wanting a 2nd for Darnold and they call the Eagles and find out they are wanting a 2nd for Wentz they can judge what the QB market is and they can use that as a base for what Watson/trading up for a QB is worth. Just helps them guage where the market is an what they might have to offer for someone they actually do want.

Long as they have a plan I’m on board . Just seem like last year plan got scraped a lil too fast for me . I hope they prove me wrong i don’t mind being wrong .

    • Bad teams with new coaches that want to make a splash with big passing games kill young QBs. Solid teams that can lean on the run and play-action give a chance for QBs fresh out of college to grow and learn how to dictate a game. A lot of these guys, and maybe even Bryce, aren't horrible but they are being asked to go in and be something unrealistic. They are expected to be able to put out raging dumpster fires after being handed a bucket and being told to go find some water.  And I think we see some of these guys who were labeled as busts eventually developing into serviceable, sometimes decent, sometimes quite good QBs when they land at a well-built team with good coaching and a solid identity. Mayfield, and Darnold are two that come to mind right now. And the two Joneses are certainly showing more in Indy and San Fran than they'd ever really shown before. But we're a shoddily built team that has been weakly coached into a softer style of football that puts crazy amounts of pressure on young QBs. Heck, even Andy Dalton with his experience really couldn't sustain any results here.   
    • 1. Charlotte has been very good to Smitty and his comment is out of line.  2. XL is Smitty, just 180 degrees out of phase. He is the quintessential anti-Smith. Give 89 the ball and he will win a game for you. His high gear was terrifying and he was fearless. He was the bully on every snap he ever played here.  XL is Mr alligator arms who lives in fear of contact. He gets boxed out by guys he outweighs by 40 pounds and looks generally clueless.  Why he has chosen to defend someone he would have BBQ’ed as a teammate stumps me. 
    • Fake outrage from an entertainer... And yes he would have absolutely chewed him out on the field for that kind play.
