I'm almost positive we are going after either Trubisky or Mariota in the offseason.

If we don't, prepare for Pickett at 6. 

Pickett is going in the top 4.  Dont be surprised if Carolina trades up if they want Pickett.  My hope and dream is trading all the way down out of the 1st round and stock pile picks in whats a very heavy Oline draft in the middle rounds.  Tired of pegging the next season on whatever high rated player we get in the 1st only to see them get injured and then its wait til next year.  Carolina needs more picks, more bodies.  They could easily snag a qb in rounds 2/3 who could start or become a very good backup/trade bait.

Well, we could have basically had Trubisky for free vs what we paid (in cash and picks) for Darnold. Would be curious to see the pro scout notes that led to that decision. 

Who knows if Mitch wanted to come here to totally end his career? He was in a better position with the bears, why would he downgrade to a worse predicament? I think he made the right choice in being a backup in Buffalo.

Best case scenario is we trade back to get at least a second,  and take OL in the first (and maybe 2nd as well).  We also spend a lot on a new FA OL, and let the rookies take their lumps next year.

With the line gelling, Darnold and Rhule should lead us to a top 3 pick in the 23 draft and our new coach has a much better class of QBs to choose from.  Gonna suck for us next year.

There are multiple teams that have two first rounders this year that have terrible OLs.  I would be surprised to the Giants take Linderbaum with one of their picks.  The vast majority of the big boards I've seen have Linderbaum as a first round grade and then don't have another center in their top 100.

And we don't want a 4th round rookie starting anywhere on the line.  I'd love the NC State guy, most are saying he is indeed a LT, but a stud guard if not.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
