Hurney was ready to go up a spot or two for Justin Herbert.

He was told, nah we good. Rhule took responsibility for that.

Justin Fields was passed over. Rhule said nah, we good.

We ain't good. We're horrible. 

Wait, you were the one that said we should go all in on Kyle Trask as the next wonder boy extraordinaire…

Originally I thought the deal was horrible, then we had to go and start winning and Sam looked good so I got sucked in to the madness… I’m back to the deal being horrible.

It was always horrible and when I tried to pump the brakes on the early success, I was "just being a hater". Same thing last year. When you bring a vet QB (Sorry, Rhule. Sam Darnold is NOT "basically a rookie.") it takes a few games for opposing DCs to get the relevant film they need to study to gameplan. The vet QB has a HUGE advantage during that short window. Once there's some game film to study, that's when the truth comes out. The truth last year with Teddy was disappointing, but expected. The truth this year with Darnold is disastrous, but again... expected. They both turned out to be exactly what they'd always shown to be. Teddy a marginal starter/good backup type. Sam Darnold an outright bust. It is what is is. It's just alarming our brain trust keeps getting duped into making mistakes that I can sit on my couch beer in hand and point out exactly where, how, and why they're fuging up.

Eh, the entire offense has been a train wreck ever since CMC went down.  Sad to say, but at this point trade him because we can't go on like this every year living and dying by CMC's ability to be on the field.  We need all the draft capital we can get to get this offense right.

What could we get?

I didn't want Trask at all, but I would've rather spent a 2nd on him on a cheap contract than sent a 2nd, 4th, and 6th for Sam Darnold and then picked up his 5th year option. No contest. I'd rather have Trask, the additional cap space, and additional 4th and 6th round picks.

 

 

 

 

I’ll admit that for sure I wanted no part of fields

and I absolutely thought Sam was a big improvement over teddy, so I thought the deal to get him was rich, but OK

i will freely admit that Sam is not good at all, and we are fugged because of it

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
