I think we just need to go ahead and pull the trigger on Watson. There just aren't any franchise level qbs coming out this year, and even if there were, our 4 or 5 wins will be enough to not be able to get the top prospect.

Trade 2 firsts and a player for Watson, spend the rest of the draft picks on oline and special teams depth players and be highly aggressive in free agency to aquire more olinmen and see what happens next year.

At least we know Watson is good, I don't trust our front office to evaluate qbs anymore. In fact, they should be fired for the teddy and darnold trades.

Why the hell would Watson want to come here?!?!?

Imagine if we fire Brady just to watch him go build a powerhouse at LSU or take another NFL OC job and have great success. It won't be at all surprising. I really don't think he's the problem. If you suck at OL and you suck at QB you're gonna suck on offense. You just can't scheme your way around massive deficiencies at both.

Yeah.  I think if you take a step back this makes a lot of sense. Perhaps too much sense to be posted on a message board.  Fix the line and either replace Darnold or bring in someone that can and eventually will take over.

Um…

It’s because of Tepper that they had to go out and find a new QB this offseason. Options 1-3 didn’t materialize. 

I realize facts aren’t well received on this board but good lord.

Please expound! I have been informed that Tepper was allowing the football guys to do their thing without interference. I was also informed that Tepper wanted Justin Fields, so do tell.

Whoever decided we should not just go into the season with Darnold as QB but have NO viable options to replace him with if poo went sour needs to be given a pink slip.

That would be the head coach.  Anyone who thinks the $65 million coach isn’t running the show would be drastically mistaken 

I believe he said ‘picked up the option to gave his QB security’ and that same reason. was given For not having a nfl quality backup …didn’t want Darnold looking over his shoulder 

darnold is a grown ass man. Any HC who thinks this, particularly for someone who has never produced, does not understand this is a business   It should have been a huge red flag 

just ‘coach em up’ Matt.  You chose him. Live with him

Yup, like you said, the N.O. offense really ain't poo without an elite QB running it, and Sean Payton scheming/calling the plays.  Its just another set of X's and O's at that point.  And right now I'm not convinced that Joe Brady could scheme up a successful game plan against Independence High School's defense. 

The saints scored 25 points with Trevor Siemian at QB, they still have elite coaching. Brady is not a good coach without all pros at every position, Sean Payton can still score points with a dud at QB. 

Payton is 1000x the playcaller Brady is.

You mean like Appaloosa capital and it’s annual holdings of $13 billion. I hear that organization was started by someone involved with the Panthers. 

You missed the point buddy. What I meant is burning something to the ground 2 years later. Everyone said process and not overnight. Right?

    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.  
    • With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
