I follow as much as anyone else can claim that they pay attention to Mocks, BPA, Team needs. I know most of this stuff has been covered but I feel that the dynamics of the draft are shifting. The very important QBs are real but the reality of every other position are starting to set in. Like Atlanta may very well love Pitts or Sewell just for example. People forget that teams have traded up mightily to take these spots. Just because they arent Qb focused does not steal from their value. With that said, reading McShays mock where we trade up 1, I hope our FO laughs at the thought. As much as I want one ,If 4 to 5 QBs go in front of us our pick will still be enormously valuable. Think teams are falling into range and we will land our qb. If we take Slater over Lance or Fields, I'll just sit back n eat the popcorn. Cheers my friends. I'm still like a 10 year old kid when it comes to draft time. In case anyone gives a damn this is my list

1  Lawrence

2 Wilson

3 Fields

4 Pitts

5 Slater

6 Lance

7 Sewell

8 Jones

9 Chase

really don’t want to be an org that just cycles through QBs but it’s hard to see how the team could rally around TB. 

Got a top 8? I'd love your opinion.

I will be happy with BPA. I honestly don't want us to settle and reach for a QB that we truly didn't want as our first couple choices. Hell, I'd rather just get rid of Teddy and sign a free agent or draft a late round QB and roll with what we have while enjoying an 8th pick BPA and getting ready to take a QB high next year.

Kind of with you but it looks like one may fall into our laps without a trade. So do you take say 4th best qb in this class (which is great) or 1st OT?

That's a tough call. I'd love 1st OT but 4th QB would make me at least seriously consider. If the 4th QB has potential to develop, a solid attitude and the mentality to lead I'd say you would almost have to take the QB. If any doubts then I'd say 1st OT. Glad I'm not making that decision as picking a 4th best QB and making a failed pick could cost someone's job ultimately. If I think I could develop that 4th QB I would probably roll the dice though but I cant have any doubts in the players mental capacity.

The reality is the franchise hasn't had a true opportunity to get it's next franchise QB since Cam. It not as easy as so many are acting. The franchise took a chance with Teddy, which wasn't wasted. I still believe most just bought into the hype that we were getting Watson no matter what. The shock and brokenness is leaving those people literally hysterical and going crazy. 

We don't have to find our franchise guy this second. If the team likes any of these guys in the draft, then they do what it takes to grab him, and move forward. 

Another year with Teddy isn't terrible. May be a lot better than we think. The team is getting better, and we're still building this team.

Far as I'm concerned,  keep building the team.until ya find the guy ya can't live without, do what it takes to secure his services, and insert him into a talented laden team.  Not the other way around.

I want one of the top four QBs, by trade if necessary. I think they all are worth it. If it’s just not possible, top two OTs next. If those six are all gone by our #8, Pitts. If THATS the top seven....top WR I guess. Or third OT if they deem him worth it.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
