I don't think we're really that interested in Fields. I think it's all been a coordinated smoke screen to trigger someone into trading with us. 

I doubt Sewell or Pitts will be there. 

If we trade back I have a nervous feeling we'll end up taking some guy none of us have even been discussing and it ends up being a letdown.

If it's a smokescreen it's a long one. There were very early reports that we loved Fields. Those have gone quiet until very recently.

I don’t think we are “interested” in fields so somebody will trade with us. I think it’s so somebody will trade ahead of us and take a QB in hopes Chase, Sewell, or Pitts fall to us.

We trade back 4 times, accumulate 14 total picks this year and an additional 4 next year. We choose a bunch of nobodies and the board goes crazy. 

7 months from now, we're laughing because our nobodies are undefeated and heading to the playoffs. People are writing about us in historical terms...greatest coaching job in the history of the NFL. Rhule is called the new Belichick. 

At the end of the season, Belichick retires and Rhule is hired by New England. Tepper offers Joe Brady a ridiculous amount of money to become head coach. He accepts. We proceed to go 6-11.

 

Or not.

It's kind of a vague prediction. Could you be a little more specific? 🤔

Fields makes too much sense. If Fields is there I think we take him. I think the competition between him and Darnold would make them both better and it’s a win for Carolina. Getting rid of Teddy removes a huge distraction that we didn’t need and could have hampered their development.  Get the guy that that can be a franchise QB and spend the second and third getting the best available tackles.  Hell, take all tackles and cornerbacks. 
 

I hope San Fran is dumb enough to take Mac Jones.

Ok, so draft day...  and as I expected, I have a clearer idea of how my board breaks down.

I have it Fields/Lance, Sewell, then Horn/Surtain.

I have a feeling Fields, Lance, and Sewell will be gone.  I think we trade back a few spots and still take Horn or Surtain, and I give Horn a slight edge as my preference.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
