Grier or PJ

PJ seems to be more electric but Grier didn't hurt himself with the 2s. 

Difference in style...

Grier was more like the steady guy who isn't very exciting but also doesn't make huge mistakes. Walker is the guy who makes a load of bad plays but every once in a while gets a big play... including some for the other team.

Neither and both, for another season at least.   I seriously doubt they will find an upgrade this late in the year. So it's ride or die with this rag tag lot.

As for the future?  It obviously will come in the draft or via another trade if it's not on the roster already.  I feel confident that Fitts will not stop looking until one is found that's for sure.  Let's all hope there is something in Sam that the rest of have failed to see because team sure believes that something is there.

I'm getting drunk either way.

Off the street? Probably not but sometimes final cuts offer up a surprise.

If they really want to improve, the best option is probably to offer a trade of a lower round pick for somebody like Jacob Eason.

I'd say Grier. I feel like it's easier for a QB in that mold to step in for a stretch of games. PJ is nothing like the QB we're scheming for. The Ravens showes last night that it helps to have a backup who's basically an inferior version of your starter. 

I'd say keep Grier, and bring in a journeyman backup.

I'm erring towards Grier mainly because in comparable situations, Grier looked better than PJ (basically what Gantt said). I mean we all assumed it was just coachspeak that Grier was improving his game but maybe he really did. He was atrocious his rookie year but that was 2 years ago. And he didn't look good in preseason game 1 but he was playing with players that have no business on an nfl roster and still looked better than PJ last night. Not crazy to think he refined his game a little since his rookie year. He was actually good yesterday. Not talking about a qb controversy and we're still screwed if he has to start for us, but I feel better about his ability to turn into a possibly usable backup which I couldn't say before yesterday.

    • I agree it is more about the OL. If you happen to have a world beater with a great OL then that’s better obviously but you don’t need to have that.  Capable and durable guys that can get to the second level with good blocking can be plenty.  
    • I think Gibbs is special, but you’re right, some of the top investments have proven to not be much different than some 2nds and 3rds. Taylor for example is on an MVP level season. James Cook is doing better than Breece Hall for example. Raiders weren’t in a good spot to draft Jeanty. Same with the Falcons/Bijan.  You gotta swing at the right time — the investment shouldn’t come too early. You almost have to stumble into a guy mid to late rounds while building or find that guy to put you over the top when the team is finally well rounded.
    • Like I said in another post yesterday, the handling of the offensive line by Fitterer and mostly Morgan has been crazy. We've spent way too much money(Lewis and Hunt) to keep Bryce upright instead of using our picks in the 2nd round on JPJ and Frazier. Could have kept an injured Corbett at guard, Brady at swing, and still taken Maye as a backup, sorry Zavala. We wouldn't have taken XL, but XL hasn't been as advertised anyway, and Brooks hasn't contributed anything. Moton's extension with it's signing bonus made him uncutable. Icky's contract was due at the same time Bryce's 3rd year ended, and we all know it's extension or 5th year, and if we're going to do a 5th year, he's going to want the extension.  To me the whole thing is just ridiculous. Right now, depending on if Tepper decides to keep Bryce, it feels like we're going to have to choose between Icky and a Bryce extension. Maybe he plays on the 5th year, but I think he'll want the big money guarantee.  JMO, but if you took a look at how the contracts could potentially fall, the writing was on the wall that this could be a cash flow nightmare. Too many contract guarantees, not enough rookie contracts to offset the upcoming paydays.
