I feel they most likely edited out any QB discussions at 8 (or moving up).

Interesting at 6:11 of the vid when Rhule listed the players they liked, that FIELDS was NOT one of them.

It's probable they edited out any QB discussion, but it's also clear from the clips surrounding the acquisition of Sam Darnold that they a) bought into the age thing and b) compared him to the QBs coming out in the draft. They are all in on Darnold. Let's hope that was the right decision.

The other name you didn't see at all was Rashawn Slater...

The Teddy Bridgewater trade stuff was interesting as well. Tepper and Rhule both make comments to George Patton that they wanted to do right by Teddy. I'm sure that makes Teddy's recent comments sting all the more.

I also really hope they let George Patton know there were cameras rolling during the call.

For the folks who are familiar with the stadium… where was the Draft Room located?  At one point it looked like one of the club lounges.  Anybody know for sure?  

It may have been.

Possible they might have needed more space than usual for social distancing.

Other sources actually confirmed there was no quarterback discussion.

The feigned interest in Fields was fishing for trade offers.

Start watching a little after two minutes in.

what a whiff... haha. 

At the same time, Bills traded ahead of us in Beane's first year to draft Zae Jones.. they really thought they outsmarted us. We ended up with Curtis Samuel. If I remember correclty Zae was our target, funny how things work out.

Even decent GMs like Beane get it wrong.

Beane was also the one who initiated the Kelvin Benjamin trade.

People think it was our idea. It wasn't.

They could have waited, and we paid a lot for him to leave...but of course they were going to say that, they knew they were on camera.

Hate that thread.  

I'd have to agree that story looks pretty bogus now.

They were also on the phone with George Paton so I don't really think that talk was just for the cameras.

More to the point though, they didn't just talk about it. They actually did do right by him.

      Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?

      Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.

      Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
