I'm not even sure they'd make the playoffs WITH Watson

well, if you got a better than average D, CMC (even for 10 games), DJ Moore and Watson.....and can't make the playoffs? 

Well, as I said, we have a Matt Rhule problem.

The thing that attracts some to Garrapolo however, was his ability to play QB on a team with a good running game, a good TE, Deebo, etc. and a good defense.  He still made mistakes and lost his job.

Bring him here, and the training wheels flying off his scooter would injure people.

I wouldn't argue that.  But I don't think that elevates him into a much better QB.

Baker and Sam are not even in the same stratosphere. Baker is the FAR superior QB.

If Baker ends up being a cheap consolation prize from this, I wont be butthurt. Ive seen Baker make some very impressive throws in the NFL and he has 6 4th qaurter comebacks along with 7 GW drives in his 4 year NFL career.

Someone else was claiming the same thing, that they’re similar QBs.  No the hell they aren’t lol.  If we can’t get Watson I’d be okay with getting Mayfield if it’s nothing crazy to acquire him.  He’s at least been good, unlike Darnold

Baker isn’t bad. I just don’t want to give up draft picks/pay money for another QB who isn’t our franchise guy. Take a chance and draft one or sign a FA like Mariotta and wait until next year…

Consider the pieces lost on defense though. Reddick, Jackson, Gilmore, DaQuan Jones. And if they trade for Watson, it's likely Jeremy Chinn, Burns, and/or Derrick Brown will be gone. Possibly even Jaycee Horn. Not sure which players they offered. Defense is taking a step back next season either way most likely, but even worse to give up assets for Watson.

If Baker came to us for cheap, say a 4th rounder. Id be willing to take that risk. We would just have to find a way to get Sam off of the roster.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
