Everyone has preferences. Some want Pickett, some want Willis, some want a LT and wait. If we get a FA LT, then I want Pickett. If not, I'm good with a LT and wait tile next year for a QB

I think I want Corral.  Just putting it out there for the Huddle to absorb.

After trading with the Steelers to move up.

The hype behind this kid is insane.  But it's being gobbled down hook, line and sinker.  All because he threw in shorts in a scripted environment that he rehearsed for like everyone does.

Tomorrow the fawning will be over Corral.

Confirmation biases you see in everything you desire has run amuck.

Misinformation is rampant and everyone is trying to make a buck.

Chill.

Some folks are very sensitive about Matt Rhule 😂

I know 🤣. The thing is I don’t hate nor love Matt. I am mostly indifferent and think that he is a coach that is growing into the role rather than be qualified for it in the first place. Tepper has visions of him eventually becoming Chuck Knoll, but never said how long that would take…

Still, I was just making an observation.

Personally.. I like Willis. If he is there I have no problem taking him. Even if he isn't ready day 1 you can weaponize him get him into the game on some packages as he develops. If a team trades up into the top 5 for him great as well.. I think that means Neal, Hamilton, icky gets pushed down. This is nothing but good either way.

I don't think Willis is going to be that good, but in general I'd be okay with the idea of taking a quarterback to develop. Rookies waiting a year or so before starting has always been my preference.

The problem with that this year is you have a head coach who needs to win now to save his job.

So while you or I might be okay with the idea, Matt Rhule is likely to feel different.

Except he came out of the senior bowl qb1 defeating the same guys we are talking about now in practice and against air.

To me--based on his pro day--hard to watch Liberty film when his receivers were not great and his OL was not great and the opposition was not great---he seems like the total package.  Charisma, character, talent, etc.  I mean, we took Cam #1 when, at the time, there were character concerns (laptop, entertainer and icon comment--which was true) and his accuracy was not great.  Because of the Auburn offense, he was not reading the defense like an NFL QB---so no QB is excused from concern at this point.

Having said that, Detroit is in a great position to grab their QB of the future.  With Goff, they may not be picking in the top 5 again next year.  They have a season or even two under Goff to work on Willis' game.  While I think they take Hutchinson if he is there, how do you pass on QB?

The Giants, Jets, and Jags are jokes. 

Every year they get the best draft picks.

You are not wrong, but this will be our third year in a row with a top 10 draft pick so in the immortal words of Boba Fett, "Well if that isn't the Quacta calling the Stifling slimy..."

    • MORGAN ON PLAY CALLER FOR CANALES   "I think that's really his [Canales'] call," he stated. "I think if he wants to promote somebody into being the play-caller or bring somebody from the outside. We haven't really talked about that. But that is something that I'm sure we'll talk about. We talk about every decision together. If he feels like he needs to add somebody or promote somebody into being the play-caller, then I trust him."  
    • Dude, he cannot see the field, when his feet are not set he throws ducks.   What the fug are you watching?
    • I'm looking at the final drive, and that's where I'm laying the blame at Bryce's feet. Stepping up to the line, 38 seconds left, 3 time outs on the clock. 30 yards needed to attempt a FG. It's not Bryce's job to call the plays, that's DC's and it was terrible play calling.  It's Bryce's job to read what the defense is giving him at the line. The middle of the field is open. Rams are guarding against the deep ball and bringing pressure leaving the middle of the field ripe for the taking. Knowing his line not holding up for long, Bryce should have read the defense, called the audible, and thrown to the middle of the field for 6- 8 yards, like you said, quick slants would have worked. Then run either hurry up or call a TO. We had time. He has to make the adjustments. Any QB has to make the adjustments.  The pass Horn dropped hit his hands but was at his knees. Should he have slid and caught it? Probably. Was the pass a good one? No it wasn't. Both players were at fault, not just Horn. Let's not pretend that Bryce threw a beautiful pass that hit the receiver chest high right in the hands in perfect stride because that damn sure wasn't the throw.  The defense didn't choke away a lead. They never had a real lead. Choking away a lead is being up by multiple scores late in the 4th and losing. We were up by 4 and handed the ball back to a potential MVP with an All pro WR and potential future HoF WR2. One score games in the 4th are a slug fest. 28-3. That's choking away a lead.  I don't solely blame Bryce for the game, but you seem to solely blame the defense for the game because they went to prevent after losing Horn. You are forgetting the short field that the offense left them that led to the early Puka TD on one of our 2 failed 4th down conversions. Our defense has been given very limited resources over the past 3 years while we have tried to put everything possible around Bryce. We added a little bit to the D this year after giving up a NFL record in points last year. Our defense overachieved based on what they've been given to work with.
