Thoughts on putting Cam behind this line?

Sign Armstead, draft Willis, then have Cam mentor Willis. 

Ding ding ding.

Best case, Cam holds up decent enough and gives Willis time to learn in an Alex Smith/Mahomes type scenario. Worst case, Cam is bad, but good for Willis to learn from, Willis goes trial by fire and we see whether or not he is "it" after playing him for half a season.  Ready or not, he'll flash if he's worth keeping.

Makes too much sense right? Fans will be happy, Cam will be a great mentor. This would be the best case scenario to me.

Nope. Draft a qb. If the line is as solid as it seems on paper, would be great to get the rookie experience, high pick even if he is decent learning (jags). If he doesn’t work out draft again ala Cardinals. Let’s find the future.

But I wouldn’t be mad. New coaching regimen next year means their guy.

I could see either route.

I'd like to see Cam get a legitimate shot with a full offseason of work with an offense/playbook before the season starts. He hasn't been able to do that since 2019. Playing Qb isn't like playing DE or any other position for that matter. It's hard to jump into a starting role when everyone is a full offseason + 1/2 a season ahead of you. It'd be different if Cam was on the roster to begin the season and then came in for those 5 games and played bad, but the guy legit got off the couch to try and win games to save a struggling team and Rhule's ass.

But with that last point, that's the one reason I wouldn't want him to come back. I really don't want to see this team competitive next year because that means we are likely stuck with Rhule until the end of his contract

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
