Accept the fact his deep ball doesn't look that good if the wr doesn't have 3 to 4 steps on a Db..

Not true at all. You clearly don't like him which is fine. Buy let's not assume that everyone agrees with you or that you even know what you are talking about  It doesn't keep you from dominating any Jones thread with negativity or stating you opinion no matter how biased.

We just watched clips of Teddy throwing deep to DJ. He threw it deep. They were just underthrown. Which is what we just saw from Mac Jones today. 

No they all werent. You see what you want to see. He did a very good job and put himself out there making difficult throws and showed a lot of heart and skill. If we draft him he will be a good one for us.

Be mad all you want but alot of ppl saw the same things I saw today... You want to convince ppl his arm strength and athleticism isn't a problem.   When reality is we've seen  alot of QBS with similar stats and ability fail for the same reason over and over again..

Not a lot. I heard some criticism as expected but overall more folks were impressed versus disappointed. Stats aren't what I look at but rather the qualities that make for a successful QB in the NFL little things like accuracy, good football knowledge, quick decisions, good elusiveness in the pocket, able to make all the throws. Has a good deep ball, etc. Just a couple of things that Jones had in abundance.

Itell them what I see and think and then only respond most times to direct posts involving me. I don't try to dominate the conversation and post 50 times saying the same thing as if that might keep us from drafting him.

Again this is your opinion and alot of credit giving to stuff you can't measure when the guy had the best weapons on the best team... 

Intangibles... super football knowledge, quick decision maker, great pass anticpater.. All stuff we don't know will translate when not having the better team every time you come on the field...

Your opinion that isn't collaborated or consensus opinion.. Can make all the throws, good deep ball, elusive in the pocket...

And this Accuracy thing has been proven over and over again as a thing you can fix with better offensive scheme and better surrounding talent... So it shouldn't be considered a supreme attribute...

You’re patting him on the back for “putting himself out there”? And “showing a lot of heart” on a Pro Day?

And this ^^^..

When you have to give credit for doing what all QBS are expected to do on Pro Days it's a sign of reaching to prove a point you don't really believe in..

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
