If I remember right McAdoo had Baker like 5th in his QB rankings that year. Darnold was actually ahead of him. 

McAdoo is basically a lameduck OC.  Matt Rhule is just going to throw whatever he can against the wall to survive. 
 

Watson IMO is largely Tepper.  Yeah, it benefits Rhule.  But if it fails Rhule is going to do Matt Rhule things IMO.

No one knows poo right now. Media can be wrong, heck, Jeremiah said he’d be a seahawk...that ain’t happening. We really are the best fit for this guy, will it happen, not sure, but we aren’t out of this. 

Saints can maybe pull off Armstead and Fuller, but otherwise we have way more flexibility to hand craft the roster for Watson if that's what he's looking for. And also can realistically pay him whatever he wants in his restructure/extension. The Saints even after these moves still have like $10 in cap space next year

No he isn’t a lame duck OC.  Stupid take from an idiot 

You have no knowledge about anything that is close to even stupid

So either way the Browns prob burned the Mayfield bridge today. Wonder if Matt Ryan is feeling this diva rn

Not only Matt Ryan, but imagine what’s going through the heads of our guys:  Chinn, Burns, Brown, Horn, CMC

Something nobody is talking about in all of this is the collateral damage that will be created internally if Watson doesn’t come here. We have essentially told the heart and soul of this team that they can kick rocks if a good qb comes available. 
 

This season and Rhules tenure are absolutely in the tank if we don’t land Watson. I’d even go as far as saying Tepper will have demolished any good will any of our current players have towards his as well. 
 

If we don’t get Watson, I honestly think this team wins three games next year and not because of a lack of talent or poor qb play.  Both of those will play a part, but the guys who are left are not going to fight for guys that were willing to send them to Houston a few months earlier.

It would depend on what contracts they trade, right? It would take A TON of work to make it happen and I agree, we are much more flexible in getting him what he needs. Let’s just say we don’t get fuller. Moore, cmc, Robby and Watson is better than Kamara and Slant boy. Plus, I would assume Kamara will be suspended a while.

They are professionals and “this is a business” is preached to them from day one lol. They’ll be fine.

      An analysis of Brooks from The Fantasy Footballers provides possible insight as to why he's worth the price paid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Sometimes you get very valuable information from fantasy football sites. I found an analysis that you may want to read from The Fantasy Footballers. Perhaps you'll gain an insight as to why we moved up and got him. As always, here are a few snippets: "As expected, he dominated in the 2023 season. He averaged an impressive 2.03 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play, which ranks in the 86th percentile among all junior seasons since 2013." "Naturally, after initially playing behind two NFL-caliber running backs, Brooks’ career numbers do not jump off the page. However, his 2023 campaign gave us a glimpse of just how massive his upside could be at the next level. In fact, Brooks is one of only TWO running backs in this class to exceed 2.00 Scrimmage Yards per Team Play within their first three seasons in college."  "If you watch Jonathon Brooks’ film, you will find multiple plays in which he created yardage with his quick feet and lateral agility. He is elusive in open spaces and has an impressive ability to stack multiple cuts to avoid contact. Combined with his impressive burst and acceleration, Brooks can be a matchup nightmare in the second and third levels of the defense." "While Brooks is not the most physical running back, he does have a knack for absorbing contact and bouncing off defenders. You see this time and time again in his film." "He showcased a willingness to initiate contact with the pass rusher, the strength to maintain blocks, and the quickness to adjust to the defender’s moves. In addition, per PFF, Brooks was a top-three running back in the 2024 class in pass-blocking grade last season. He was also one of only two running backs in the class to average a 0% pass block pressure rate, highlighting just how effective he was as a blocker." "In short, Brooks has tremendous upside as a prospect. Even with his ACL injury, I would still be comfortable drafting him in the early second round of rookie drafts. In fact, I would not be shocked if he finished his career as the most productive running back in this class. However, we just need to temper our expectations for his rookie year as he slowly ramps up to full health." Marvin Elequin provides more here (including video clips): https://www.thefantasyfootballers.com/dynasty/2024-rookie-profile-rb-jonathon-brooks-fantasy-football/   Basically, Brooks has the potential to be a beast, and was well worth the 46th pick (and most mocks had him going mid second round anyway). He's not JAG. Someone had to make the move and take him, and we were the ones to do it. He's elusive, has good speed and acceleration, exceptional contact balance, and is an outstanding blocker. Just like any nice RB transitioning to the league, he will need to get used to taking what the defense gives him, while also showing discriminating patience, but he has demonstrated some ability on that front in college. Brooks' only real knock is the ACL. But ACLs aren't career ending anymore, or even skill ending as evidenced by Dalvin Cook, Todd Gurley and others. We'll just need to temper our expectations during his rookie campaign while he gets back to form. Once he does, we'll finally have the talented three-down back that has eluded us since Stew retired.

      2024 Who would you have picked

      By R0CKnR0LLA · Posted

      2.43 : Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon 2.52 : Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas 3.65 : Junior Colson, LB, Michigan 3.79 : Blake Corum, RB, Michigan 4.101 : Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas 😎 5.141 : Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia 5.142 : Austin Booker, Edge, Kansas 5.155 : Christian Jones, OT, Texas Note, I traded down from 33 (took the Arizona/Atlanta trade up to 35 - might have actually been able to net an even better deal but whatever, I'll go with this). Took the Rams trade but stayed put at 52 and at the top of the 3rd.
