Big splash vet, 1st round QB, or stick with Darnold should be the only three options. Enough with these third tier vet acquisitions. We've sank enough resources into them and the results are going to keep being the same. 

What is the cut off for "big splash vet"?  Cousins? Carr?

I am going to hope most of the options he mentioned aren’t taken.  Kenny Pickett would be a disaster and not better than Darnold.  If we build the OL and left QB for later I would like that much better than a Pickett or other QB reach.  Sadly, I would put us reaching for a QB at like 90% probability atp.

Fitty and Rhule better do some serious evaluations before taking any of these QBs at 6.  

I like Sam Howell personally but even then I would want him in a trade down scenario.  

Willis…same.  Trade down first.  This QB group is really suspect overall.  You shouldn’t just pick the best suspect talent and call him the savior.

I think they’ll either try to get a mid tier vet FA QB or stick with Darnold. I don’t see them drafting Pickett. If they passed on Fields and Jones, why would they pick Pickett? He’s a lesser prospect than either of those guys. 

I disagree. I like Pickett a lot and no doubt in my mind he has better arm talent than Fields, who I dont like at all or Jones, who had a good year at NE.

If we trade down how do we know the team trading to our spot isnt getting a qb? That would be insanity to trade back with that plan and then all of the talent is gone

Because he's desperate for his job and Tepper doesn't understand or care.

Naw…when I say trade down it would not be very far.  Target OL and QB.  Take what the board gives you.  One of these QBs will definitely be there mid first round.  

I know where you are going here though.  If they pinpoint a QB he will go at 6.  They won’t risk it IMO.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
