A QB that can be a TE, FB and QB.

That's right. The Golden Calf of Bristol! A QB that can run the wildcat. A QB that has the fire to be a winner. A QB that might just fall to us in the draft. He would be perfect for us with DWill And JStew. I know alot of you you are not liking The Golden Calf of Bristol but, with the wildcat (and I'm not a fan of it) he is a fit. He is fiery, just what a lot of people like about Jake. He won't pout like Cutler if mistakes are made. He is a natural leader and a perfect QB to keep the team motivated. And another thing....... he is the type of player JR wants on his team.

I dunno I kind of like the idea of taking Golden Tate. To finally have that legit #2 threat would be amazing. Then maybe sign some one like Campbell, or maybe if Matt Moore is allowed to show something over the next few weeks. I think we could go far with a guy who could at least throw on target, or even hit our WRs in stride.

I agree I think Tate could end up being the best receiver in this years draft. He has only been playing there 3 years and has improved by leaps and bounds every year who knows were his ceiling is. He has great hands and very good body control. And what impresses me most is his uncanny consistency its almost like you can just give him 125+ Yards and 1+tds a game. Get him in the 2nd and get a developmental prospect like John Skelton in the 4th. Let him Moore and a FA pickup (Troy Smith pretty please) and see who comes out on top (my money would be with Troy Smith if we got him).

you really think he is going to be able to run like he did at FL in the NFL??

and his passing is pretty iffy.

I think when it comes to The Golden Calf of Bristol, it's the intangibles. His attitude. That is the kind of player that tries to get better.

I like the idea. I think character/personality-wise, he would be a great fit for our team after we dump Delhomme. Also, he would bring some media attention. I really don't like the way he passes though...I wouldn't object on picking him up though.

I really cant see any way the Jags pass on him. It makes to much business sense. The Jags are a franchise at the end of its rope. They need fans in the seats and who in this draft would come close to bringing the amount of die hard Florida football fans to them as The Golden Calf of Bristol. I like him but I think he is a bit to much of a risk I will start watching whoever drafts him more though as he is fun to watch.

Well not only that and I don't mean to sound like John Fox right now but at least if we picked up Tate we would be getting a bonefide player. I mean I would love to pick up a franchise QB but the odds of that happening in 2nd aren't very high. We should have some FA options in the off season we can look to. If we can take care of QB outside of the draft that really gives us room to pick BPA as I don't think we have many holes. We're stacked at RB, FB, TE, LB, CB, DT, DE, and FS. I'd like for us to pick up a hard hitting SS to back up Harris this year though. We lose alot in run support when he's out of the game.

I'd say pick him up and give him a shot. I hate Florida but I know The Golden Calf of Bristol is a tough player with a lot of heart. He doesn't have to have the Gunslingers arm for our passing scheme since its mainly dink and dunks to TE and smoke routes and 10 yard passes here and there in theory. How much of an arm do you really need.

I actually like Skelton more then any QB in this draft. I'm not saying we should draft him in the 2nd but I think as a 3rd or 4th round pick he has tremendous value as I think he is this years Flacco (big frame 6'5" 258, big arm, and surprising athleticism). He is a project but I really see no QB in this draft who is not one.

      Big changes coming

      I'd like to see the gameday chats come back, especially if you can get it mobile compatible and like those support chats that stay on the screen even when you move around the site. We could use them during CLTFC and Hornets games now too.

      There's a lot of truth here, but at the same time, that one year of production we might be paying for is actually paying for a development arc. And a lot of players have those. QB is the most complicated position in sports, hands down.  I'm not saying Bryce will make it past the hump this year, the odds are stacked against him just like any QB in the league that isn't already considered an elite player (and there are only about 5-8 of those at most). Arcs happen, and slow arcs happen, too. Sam Darnold seemed a wash up for the Jets and a horrible mistake. He was better with us, but still couldn't carry a bad team on his shoulders (or bad coaching). He went to Minnesota and got a shot under better coaching with more mature eyes to see the field. Something sparked and then he took his team to the Super Bowl and brought home a ring. Baker Mayfield had a similar arc, and may yet hit the big game. Hell, locally, Jake Delhomme had one. Or Bryce could flutter back down having already hit his peak. It happens. More often than any of us want to admit. We've paid for a full development arc for Bryce, but we've had it on rookie deal rates and that's been a savings that has let us build out the rest of the team, which was really needed. Maybe we end up diving back into the QB pool in the first round next season. Might be the guy, might not.  But he'll be set up with a better team that Bryce was when he started. Or maybe, just maybe, Bryce adds another seven TDs and loses four INTs on the season. Grabs three more wins and maybe a playoff win, maybe two. It's not completely impossible and that'd be great for the team and for him.  We're just going to have to tune in and see how it plays out. Probably won't be boring.

      I am holding out hope for a miraculous run this season. But you know the narrative around him is peak delusional when the Panthers social team can post this without even a hint of irony. Four years and almost 50 games into his career he still looks like he's never set foot in the weight room. Really?
