In my mind the way things have gone down so far seems to be putting us in prime position to draft a stud LT to protect whoever our future QB is going to be for the next decade. I’m more than fine with that. 
 

There will be more QBs in next years draft. I don’t want to watch Teddy for another year, but I didn’t expect us to be in the playoffs this year anyway. Get me a LT and keep filling the remaining roster holes. Get the QB of the future next year.

The team f*cking sucks from top to bottom. Even with a good QB this team might be .500. Not enough elite talent to compete with the good teams. I’m down for them to trade down in the first and accumulate picks. Build the roster up. Draft a rookie QB in the later rounds and maybe it works out Russell Wilson style. If not, draft a QB next season.

The more holes we fill the more it will cost to eventually get our QB because of our draft position.

Qbs are not suddenly going to be cheaper next draft.

Where was Big Ben drafted? 11th pick. Where was Russel Wilson drafted? Third round. Where was Drew Brees drafted? Second round. Where was Aaron Rodgers drafted? 24th pick. Where was Lamar Jackson drafted? 32nd pick. Where was Josh Allen drafted? The 7th pick. Where was Pat Mahomes drafted? The 10th pick. Where was Tom Brady drafted? The 6th round. 
 

Should I keep going? You guys keep claiming we have to give up ludicrous draft capital if we ever want to get a QB. I’m tell you that you are wrong. I brought evidence to support my argument. I can provide more if needed.

We could still do that.. Darnold price isn't our 1st round pick..

I told every single person here as soon as Bridgewater was signed we would be sitting here rationalizing awful ideas like this in phase 2 of QB purgatory

 

next it'll be the mid round developmental guy who "really has some upside, Russell Wilson etc etc"

Depending what it would cost, I'd be all for trading for Darnold and drafting a LT at 8.

But I'm not sure I'd give up even our second rounder this year, maybe 3rd this year or 2nd next year and add in like a future pick in the 5-7 round range, I'd do that.

Darnold had terrible coaches and no supporting cast, give him CMC, DJ, Robby, and a good staff, he could be very successful.

No to the big D until after the draft and off the trash heap. If that's the answer it better not cost draft capital or more than a meaningful year contract length. He could get us a #1 to #3 pick o  2022 so it wouldn't be all bad.

    • Frank Reich, Ryan Poles get honest about challenges of developing No. 1 pick QB.  *Reich: My handling of offensive system "probably made it more difficult for Bryce (Young)" *Poles: From 24-25. tone changed from bridging Caleb Williams to 'tough love'   https://x.com/jfowlerespn/status/1957857880276705508?s=46
    • As bad as AR has been, the Panthers would’ve been better off right now, if they had stayed at #9 in 2023 and picked him instead of doing what they did.  At least this way, they would’ve only wasted one draft pick vs what they gave up to pick BY. And they would have kept the #1 pick in the 2024 draft. 
    • I felt pretty good about us making progress this season, surprising some people, and getting some more wins than last season going into it.  Now, after preseason, my expectations are much, much lower. I was talking with my friend who is a Bears fan, and we were discussing their drubbing of the Bills and how people try to dismiss it as “preseason, so it doesn’t count.”  It absolutely counts.  Not the wins or losses.  No one really cares about that.  But what the Bears are doing shows that even in a vanilla, non-specific scheme, they are executing at an elite level and they are disciplined.  It shows they are well coached.  They see growth in their players.  Versus us - hard to tell what we’re looking at because everything is a fuging mess.  In games we’re still undisciplined, be it penalties or assignments.  We do NOT execute.  We got random coaches calling plays that won’t be calling plays during the season, we have our players getting into fights in the last padded practice of the preseason, then we have Bryce and Chuba trying to correct it while our coach sat off to the side laughing.  To be clear, I like Canales.  He seems like a good dude.  But, it feels like we have very little direction and discipline.  You’re allowing a team who has been historically bad the last almost decade, with a losing culture that mostly bereft of talent to self-police?  You’re allowing subordinates to work in pet projects at the expense of getting valuable reps and evaluation of players in during games?     My friend literally brought up last night that when Ben Johnson got there he essentially put DJ Moore in notice because it was starting to be perceived that he was displaying some diva-behavior.  That’s leadership.  And they’re reaping the benefits early and setting a tone.  My friend said there is an excitement and confidence in and around their team that’s he’s never felt his entire life.  And here we are, sounding and looking like The Bad News Bears in our final week of training camp and preseason.  I literally stopped watching after halftime last week.  I used to watch every play faithfully, even in 2001 and 2010.  It was fun.  This isn’t.  We are bad and our administration keeps making bad decisions to compound things.  Reading poo like this today is just fuging deflating.
