Take QB out of the equation

I’m going to try to be positive here.


I understand a lot of people wanted Fields.  I would have considered him myself, but for whatever reason the team wasn’t that high on him.

A lot of us wanted Sewell, but he was gone.

A lot of us would have liked to trade down, no idea what type of offers they had.

If you take QB or trading down out of the equation, we got a really good prospect at a high value position that was also a position of need.

Outside of Fields or trading down, who would you have really preferred?

You have to. There's no choices now, it's Sam and no prospect in the next years draft that they'll be able to get to.

This is similar to the Jake days, but only if Jake came in as a certified bust.

Maybe we'll get lucky one year and have so much talent throughout almost every position on the team that we can lose another Super Bowl.

Horn tbh and I got my wish.

I can't understate how talented I think Horn is 

There has to be a reason people were passing on Fields. And we'll learn. He's a Bear now. They have their path, we have ours.

At the end of the day 31 other teams look stupid to fans at large while one looks like a genius. There's no sure fire way. Trust your gut, go from there.

Stop getting upset about what you can't control.

The longer i think about it, the more that i like horn for our pick. I am just worried that sam darnold is not the answer, just like teddy wasnt... and i think it will be a while before we have a chance to draft a decent qb prospect. Even if darnold sucks, our team is good enough to go 8-8 perpetually. It may be a while before we get a shot at another qb

Follow you instinct and you'll make it to game 8 of next season still posting, and not hiding after an off-season of chest thumping.

I’m not sold on darnold at all, he was one of the worst rated qbs, they are doing the same thing with darnold as they did Teddy, if what they saw from fields wasn’t enough to warrant the pick, I’m cool with that as long as that shows on the field, when he plays, cause if he’s great and darnold flops, I will lose what little trust in the front office

No he wasn't lol. Darnold would be a top 3 pick in this draft nd they have gone over this already many times lol.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
