Is drafting a QB the plan now?

pure speculation on my part

Does the Bozeman signing provide a clue?

After the Corbett signing I was thinking an O-line like this: LT(pick 6), BC, Elflein, Corbett, and Moton.  Was actually pretty happy about this.

After the Bozeman signing though maybe the line looks like this:  BC, Elflein, Bozeman, Corbett, and Moton.  What is the chance we have convinced ourselves that BC is "good enough" that we can now use the first pick on a QB?

Showing progress with a rookie QB would definitely be one way to keep your job, and they have definitely spent some resources on the O-line to help whatever QB succeed.

Like I said this is all just speculation, maybe they just move Elflein to a backup job, maybe the line will be LT(pick 6), BC, Bozeman, Corbett, and Moton.

If that truly is what they want to roll with, I hope we decide to take an Edge rusher or some other position and not a QB.  None of these jabroni ass QBs are worth the 6th pick in the draft.  They would be Day 2 picks in any normal QB year.

There’s not a QB in this class that helps Rhule win now which is what he will need to do to save his job.

It’ll probably be Minshew or Jimmy G leading the offense which is whatever… but on the other hand, drafting Cross, Ekwonu, or Neal at six and having a line of… Cross/Ekwonu/Neal - Christensen - Bozeman - Corbett - Moton is something to be excited about.

I have to agree with you on this. But all bets are off with Rhule making the call.

I don’t think they sign these guys to short term contracts with the idea of having a transition season with a rookie QB. Tepper isn’t going to care if we go 8-9 with a rookie QB. He wants a winning team. Why else would they consistently look to give up draft capital for established QBs?

    • Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
    • How do I activate said Krispy Kreme deal? I'm stoned man you can't be playing with me about this...
    • When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
