I'm not sure a rookie QB is what any HC wants in a must win year with a seat that on fire, especially when you are picking a developmental QB.

By that logic I expect them to take a player that they see as contributing over being a project so the need to value may be way off in their minds. Desperation usually doesn't lead to great decisions from people making poor decisions that led to the desperation. I will belive they can fix the oline when they do, I have serious reservations about believing they can. Getting rid of Elflein completely would be a good start in my eyes. 

What you don’t seem to understand is that “the process is 1000% working”, thus next year will be tremendous success, so why not draft your QB of the future?

I could see Tepper pushing for Rodgers or Wilson to juice the organization.

No, I agree--but when the cap is factored in, the fact that we have 1 pick in the top 100, etc.  What is he going to do?  Free agency going after a starting QB--will he sell the farm--I see no QB worth the farm or the #6 pick---what is Rhule the Fuhle going to do?

Anything and a lot of not good is possible. There is a lot we don't know that could factor into what Rhule does. Is he given a real ultimatum? Or is he out there doing Rhule stuff? They thought they built a good oline last offseason, good enough to ignore oline way more than they should have ever allowed. So what has really changed other than the obvious public criticism?

The level of dysfunction that the organization is running with looks to be growing. Hell throw in the new rockstar OC's influence that could be built into taking the job. Positive or negative, looking at the candidates I expect negative but you know broken clocks being right and all. What about the other people in house trying to distance themselves from Fhule's rule? It's chaos right now and a lot is possible, even the WTF options. 

There is what I would love but really a lot more is on the table...I just discount great decisions because that is not a standard deviation at this point in the 5 year process.

I 1000% expect to be blown away by the awesomeness of it all. I am sure I will be excited to give my money away by September...lol

[WOW!!]

If they can't get rid of Darnold they Atleast got to bring in cheap competition..

If they are going to be in on this market they must have some idea it's going to get better by ppl being released or put on the trade market..

Jimmy G, come on down!  Overpriced and injury prone.  He fits our model 

It’s the “process”…. He fits the process.

DARNOLD IS A CERTIFIED BUST. I'd rather watch the Strong kid take his lumps OR since he is so raw, sit behind QB1 for two or so years while we develop him. NOBODY is going to pay good money to watch Sam Darnold. He's not iconic or entertaining.

 

You think anybody is going to pay good money to watch another clown circus coached by certified clown coach Rhule.

I don't see either one caring about Tepper's push. As long as there is a cap his billions can't be used that way. 

[hepcat]

Getting Sam Darnold and his $19m salary off the books would be a huge victory. F*cking idiots. They'd probably have to trade an asset to get some other team to eat that salary. What a joke.

We better not be trading for most of these guys unless we are GETTING something for doing so.  QBs like Kirk Cousins are a liability because of their salary, and their availability is a testament to that.  Why aren't the Vikings content with this QB?  Why did SF trade 3 1st round picks to draft a QB?

The truth is, these QBs aren't good enough and there is no reason to waste resources on acquiring them.  We should acquire a cheap veteran if we need to bring in someone else at QB.  Either that, or do what every other normal front office does and draft a guy.

Oh look, they are adding yet another vet QB to a room full of vet QB's. None of which are going to get it done.

Throwing sh#t at the wall is in full effect. 

[ECHornet]

I vote for Trubisky at 5 years/25 mil. $5 mil would put him in top 10 of backup QBs. We would lock up a strong backup who has potential to be a mid tier starter.

The guy who said he's not coming back to a 5-12 team?

Yeah, wouldn't bet on that.
