I'd much rather have Jones over Lance. 

I agree w/ that.  But I don't want either at 8.  If we could land Mac Jones in the 2nd or more likely via a trade down in the first I would be cool with that.

I'm still open to spending that #8 pick on BPA and kicking the tires on the likes of Sam Darnold.  I think Darnald has potential to be better than one or two  of the top 5 QBs in this draft.   And you could probably get him for a 2nd or 3rd  rounder.

This is a HUGE red flag. The guy ran a 4.92 in HS. I don't think he's anywhere near as fast as most people think he is. I'm not sure his running ability translates to the NFL. If he could run sub-4.7 he'd be running IMO.

“Lance later learned the GPS tracker he was wearing clocked him at 21.54 mph on that run, his fastest speed of the season. It would have ranked 12th in the NFL last season among ball-carriers and tops among quarterbacks, according to Next Gen Stats.”

Jones won't make it to the end of round one 

Well, then you let another team draft him too early IMO.    This entire draft IMO just screams desperate teams doing desperate team things. 

Mac Jones, Trey Lance, etc are simply not top 15 NFL QBs IMO.      You can't predict stuff and any player could prove you wrong....Trevor Lawrence could flop and the FL kid be the best in the draft.   

If we don't draft Fields or Wilson w/ that #8 pick then I am a pretty firm no on a QB.

Yeah, that was posted earlier too. So why do you think he isn't running?

If he went out there and ran like the wind it would definitely help him.

I hear that New England is interested. Then again I guess Belicheck knows nothing about great QB play.

yeah, I'm not buying that.   Go watch that run.   Nice run.  Good angles.   He wasn't running away from folks on that field...and it was James Madison athletes right with him not Bama.

I mean I am interested.   I doubt BB is trade in to the top 10 interested for Mac Jones. 

I mean there was a reason Tom Brady was a 6th rounder.    There were reasons BB passed on him 5 rounds in a row too.  Brady is a unicorn.   People always defy the odds.  But the odds are the odds for a reason.
