Question: "Do you look around the league trends as to whats been successful (at the QB position) going forward on Thursday." 

Kyle references QB's like: Josh Allen, Deshaun Watson, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Maholmes. 

"Man, you want to find Drew Brees who can move like Lamar Jackson." 

Sure doesnt sound like they're taking Mac Jones to me.

It could mean that since you can't find a Drew Brees who can move like Lamar Jackson, you take the better QB--Drew Brees.  Perspective is everything.

He answered the question and he was truthful. That is the trend. That doesn't mean that he doesn't want Jones. In fact, about 5 years ago, there wasn't a player like them that was considered a top QB. Not 1. It's a new thing which is why it's called a trend. 5 years ago and Mac Jones would likely be considered the 2nd best QB in this draft or at least the 3rd and it would be almost unanimous. I saw a Dan Patrick show saying that teams that interviewed Mac and gave him some of their plays and discussed their strategies and he aced it. Then they contacted him a month later and he could still recall everything from their first interview, plays, strategies and all. He's a football guru. What he lacks in physical attributes he compensates with elite football IQ. He has the football IQ of a Manning or Brady. YOu can insert him into your offense and he will get it immediately and you will soon be able to open the entire book. He is likely the best QB in the draft in that sense. If Jones goes to San Fran then I predict he will be the top QB in this draft by the end of 2023.

Saw on Twitter just now that Shanny wants Mac and the scouting department wants Lance. Could get interesting there. Not like we haven't seen a similar situation here, thankfully it was a much smaller potential cost.

They have already paid a ransom for the 3rd, they have to get someone who produces or heads will be rolling. I would just love to have the 49ers take Lance and Mac 'slip' to the Falcons. Damn that would be sweet!

Dude, keep the hope alive. If Shanny wants him at 3, why can't we play him twice a year for another 48 hour?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
