Yeah he is. He really impressed me this season even though it wasn’t even his best year. He’s an unquestioned leader of men. Something we desperately need.

but yeah, for his sake I hope it doesn’t happen. Vegas would be so stupid to move him.

He got hurt coming out in the draft by his brothers legacy which wasn’t even his fault to be honest.  David spent a career getting destroyed behind bad OLs in historically bad way.

I remember absolutely not being able to find any flaws in Derek coming out.  Great arm, leader, accuracy…he had it all.  He is a upper tier QB.

Plug Derek into this team with an improved (like really improved) OL and we can do something.  30 isn’t that old with his talent

No good QB is going to want to come here with this offensive line and coaching staff. So we're going to spend money on a bad QB, then we'll probably draft a bad QB for good measure, and do nothing to fix the offensive line, and then wonder why we're here again in 2023.

Bingo.

He wins games though. 

While true, the best ability is availability and he doesn’t have that.  He’s probably not even playing this weekend due to thumb and shoulder problems.  Considering our situation it’s not worth wasting money on a guy like him with our OL woes.  But I agree, when he’s healthy, he is usually an above average QB

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
