Well 30 passing touchdowns with 5 thousand yards passing is nothing to laugh about. Also a pro bowl season. Yes I know he threw 30 ints as well so it's about a push not adding in rushing touchdowns. He has to be a better option than Jimmy G as well.

I'm not saying he wins us a super bowl or this is the best option available. But with what we have and no draft picks.. we have to get creative. He's a mid level talent I believe.

I like Jameis(lobbied for him after Tampa) but I just don't see him being able to do much in our current situation. If we were stacked on OL and had competent coaching, sure. But in that scenario, we could also probably attract someone better.

Who's better is the question. I dout we can pull the big 3.. watson, rodgers or wilson.Wilson. whose left?

Last season he was on pace for 30+ TD passes and 7-or-8 INT’s.

I would love us to either take a left tackle or QB at 6. And I don't buy that you can't take a QB at 6 this year because no one deserves it. If you think he is a franchise QB and he is much better than someone who will be there at your next pick, you pull the trigger.  If you trade back you are saying we don't really like him that much and are willing to lose him to someone else.  But then again I would likely keep drafting a QB until I hit on one. No matter what I did in free agency.

Here's the deal.  Jameis Winston belongs in the NFL in some capacity.  However, he's also a benchmark.  If Jameis Winston is an upgrade to your starting QB position...its the surest sign you need to seriously address your starting QB position.  And Jameis isn't the answer for that.

Better only matters if it helps us win. Most QB's in the NFL are better than Sam Darnold. Maybe almost all of them. But can they win more games than he did here? Not all of them.

So better only really matters if it is better enough to make us a better team.

I wanted him when he was a free agent, before we got Darnold. He’s better than Darnold by a long shot. I don’t want him now, though. Either go the draft route or bring in an elite QB from the outside.

What the Saints paid Jamesis (1yr for $5.5m) was so much a better deal than what we paid Darnold.

Like you I would prefer to go draft, or elite, or just stick to what we have and tank, but if we do go the cheap vet route, we could do worse than Jamesis.

Yea, I jumped the shark a bit on Cam. Now, I just want to be patient and do this right. Jameis isn’t a bad option, but I’d rather just try and do this right. I think most of us can agree that Darnold isn’t the answer, and never was

    • Any QB worth his weight in gold is going to get his guys the ball. Of course he has to have the protection, coaching and experience to do that. Moreover, it has yet to be determined what type of situation this is for a rookie wideout. The most important thing that will determine that is coaching.
    • I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through  
    • I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility.
