I said 0.0% chance that 4 go in 7 picks.  I still stand by that.  This qb class isnt that good.  I think the shine is wearing off on Lance and Fields a bit now that the film is being digested. 

 

If the Falcons and their cap situation pass on Pitts for a qb then I believe they may be the dumbest franchise outside of the Jets.  No way they dont try and run this back with Ryan and Co for the next 2ish years.  Pitts makes them unstoppable

 

But in closing like I said, if we thought Fields was a franchise qb we would have made the move. 

Prepare thys anus my guy....

I sorta agree, but when the season is on the line....That is how kids bust.  Herbert was supposed to ride pine and got thrown in too early.  He is OK.  Watson, Cam, Murray, etc.  started week 1.  It is a rough way to begin. Three games in preseason and 7 in regular season is not unthinkable.

My jaw still hasnt came up form witnessing Herberts rookie year. If they had a league wide(ALL players) re-draft, *right now* Id take Herbert 2nd overall. Coaches job is to prepare the players. Some rookies are ready AND the better player. QBs that are moblie can over come all the old school thoughts/issues, they just have to not believe the QB MUST stay in the pocket for success. All the QBs you listed can move, Fields and lance can too so they maybe adapt faster than people like me believe... RPO is a god send for these QBs too.

Herbert walked into a dream situation though - good Oline, throwing to Allen and Henry.

Which brings us back to Darnold.  I agree 100%.  Not that Darnold will be successful, but we can probably all agree that he will be more successful.

I agree. Just hope the fans don't trash Darnold and throw him under the bus the first bad game he has

Less rumor, more somethingI heard from someone I know well connected with one of our division rivals.

 

“They’ll be fine if the Panthers go OT at 8.  They just don’t want them to get Chase/Waddle/or Smith.  They don’t won’t to give that staff all the Weapons they’d have and surround Darnold with them.  They can piece together a avg OL with this depth in this class.  But giving Brady/Rhule that.  It makes you a little nervous.”

I have had the same thought--even though I want a LT badly.  I have stated that it seems the Panthers have addressed the T spot to some degree--$8m guaranteed to Erving on a 2-year deal, re-signed Scott, Daley is available if he is not injured, etc.

But we let Curtis Sam walk out of here and have reacted by signing a WR that had half the yards and receptions last year.  You have to think we are not done.  I think Moore #2 is a WR #4.  Maybe the slot is open.

TE is also a weapon, and upgrading at TE in this draft requires that you take Pitts if he is there.  Suddenly, you have a dangerous person in addition to your dangerous WRs.

So here is the plan---get weapons and get more dangerous.  Moore is not bad at slot if you have Pitts.  If you don't get Pitts, you need one of the big playmakers, and who is the draft's biggest playmaker at slot WR?  Waddle. 

Moore/Anderson/Moore#2/Pitts

Moore/Anderson/Waddle/Arnold

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
