We won't have to.  All 4 QBs going before pick 5 is so highly improbable that isn't not worth fretting over.  No reason to be all nervous to jump to #3.  The 5th pick is only 300 points on a trade value chart from #8.  Even for QB inflation, you are not talking about much more.  We sit tight if we think one falls or move to up to #5.  Watson will cost us A TON MORE than moving up to #5.

Everything really hinges on the Jets and do they take Wilson. If they go with Sewell, Cincinnati is more likely to trade back since their elite LT is off the board. Sewell and Bechton on the edges with Darnold and no Gase might be interesting. It Darnold does suck, they would be in good position to go after Howell next year.

Sewell and Slater won't both be gone before #5 and the next couple of teams are looking at defense or skill positions.  Cincy can move back and still either get Sewell, Slater or possibly the choice of the two.  They are in a cherry spot at #5.  I don't think it would take much to move them back 3 spots to #8.

Agree that they both won’t be gone but Slater doesn’t quite have the length. He makes it up in footwork, no doubt, and I’m a footwork guy. I just don’t  know if he warrants taking at 5 with that. Now if we traded up to 5 and he was there at 8, I could totally understand it. You’ve grabbed a couple extra picks which makes kicking him inside if you have to a little more palatable. If the Jets take Sewell, I see Cincy moving. If not, I think they stay put.

      fug the HATERS

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
