Forget the odds- Who are you taking if Chase, Fields, and Sewell are at 8. Cannt trade back either, must make a choice.

Choose wisely..

Sewell because there is no point in having an elite QB and defense if the O-line can't protect the QB long enough to make a pass.

No one has a crystal ball. Sure, one of those guys could develop injury problems like Garappolo. Goff was always physically limited. It was baffling that he was a #1 overall pick. His arm is average at absolute best. Same with Foles. He has a good arm, but concrete boots for feet. All three of the draft prospects we're talking about as well as Watson have a lot better physical tools than Goff and Foles.

Watson has had 2 ACL tears, one for each leg. Wilson has had known elbow and shoulder injuries. Im legit scared about trading 3 1sts, 3 2nds, 4th, 5th, and good young defenders for either... I dont even want to trade that for lance and I drive the lanceusexual spaceship..

it’s just a ton to give up for any single player. He’s a known elite player which is usually better than rookie unknowns but it’s A TON of compensation to give up. We might be better off just drafting a QB with our first and second round picks for the next three years and keep our young defenders.

Sewell is my top player of those left. If it were Fields vs Chase or Pitts I’d likely go Fields. Pitts or Chase would be a tough decision. It’s been so long since we’ve have great LT play it’s hard to pass up. The only player in this class id 100% draft over Sewell is Lawrence.

We agree on this for sure, plus given QB contracts are 45+ million now........those rookie deals look even juicer now. Plus you can tag 3 years after a 5th year option.....thats still chicken feed compared to what would be 50 million per at that point. Seems no other QB besides Brady is willing to less, dont blame them one bit tho..

For everyone begging for Sewell while talking about the risks of the QB prospects, feel free to take a look at the loooooong list of 1st round OT busts in the last 15 years or so.

There's a chance he could bust...like anyone else. But from everything I've read, he's as solid a LT prospect as Lawrence is a QB prospect. In short, nobody really believes either of them will be busts. They may not live up to expectations, but nobody thinks they won't be solid starters at minimum.

Nobody thought all those other highly drafted OTs were gonna bust either. Remember Robert Gallery? He was supposed to be the best OT prospect in a looking time. Some don't even think Sewell is the best in this class. Yeah, Sewell is a very good prospect but better have busted.

Why?!?!? I going to ignore everything that goes against my beliefs!!1!!11

Also if you look at the league and current history, its easier to find a top tier QB than top tier LT. I want to see Sewells pro day, but right now hes still solid #3 overall.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
