There isn’t going to be a phenom prospect available at 6. If there is one in the next draft chances are we won’t be picking first (especially if we draft LT and solidify our OL) so we would have to trade a lot of picks to get him. Only use one first round pick at 6 and take a chance on one that has potential to be great but needs some work. This is how Allen worked out for the Bills, Mahomes for the Chiefs, Lamar for the Ravens etc…

Maybe. But I’m not in football and neither are you. Do you not see the point of this thread?  We do we’ll playoffs. We don’t Rhule is fired. Win win!!

Yea but you get the same thing bringing back Cam and taking BPA at #6. If Cam is truly done like most on this board believes he is, then we get a high draft pick without much commitment to Cam beyond this season. If Cam does well then we have our QB for the next 2-3 seasons and we are a playoff team. Taking one of these Qbs at 6 this year, sucking and taking another QB in the next draft with a new coach while being stuck with the one we took at 6 would be such an awful situation. We likely would pass on a QB next year if that's the case while being stuck with a new HC and still an unknown situation at QB.

If we take a QB at 6 this year I feel like Tepper will give Rhule yet another mulligan while he continues to "build" this team. No way we are a playoff team with a rookie qb at pick #6.

Just in general, way WAY WAY WAYmore clip board holders in the other group. The one outside the top 10.

QB with a high pick is a big risk; like only 20% actually work out. After that? Those chances rapidly decrease to infinitesimal.

Over the last 25 years, first round QB's have "hit" at a rate of about 50%.  For all other rounds combined, the number is about 10%.  Those are the numbers.

I kinda don’t understand what you guys want. “Not first round Qbs”. Ok, we’ll roll with Darnold? Complaining and moaning. Trade for Baker or Jimmy (my least favorite option) - complaining and moaning. We’re in a position to be picky about our options. Damn near 29/32 teams have better qb on their roster than we do. Trust their eyes and what they see, more than the blind “not first round qbs” junk.

Because people are stupid. Esp the people here.  Coach potatoes would rather roll with junk.  DAs all over the place.

I’m personally going in with optimism with any situation. We dodged the biggest bullet in my eyes, Watson, so even if we absolutely suck with Darnold again, the picking should be ripe for a qb. If the team finds one of these guys fit, let’s roll with em and be excited.

      Prediction

      By strato · Posted

      I only wonder about the West Coast team playing on tne East Coast at 1pm factor and historically that has been worth a lot to the home teams. And maybe playing down to the competition that happens sometimes. And the crazy up down up down pattern we have been in this season.  I don’t bet on these things though.

      What a franchise QB looks like

      By strato · Posted

      I think the racist stuff is barking up the wrong tree with Tepper. He is all woke and stuff. Not that liberal white people can’t be racists they are in their way pretty racist.  Or can be,  I for sure agree about the yes man aspect and particularly apply that to Wilks.  I didn’t understand the Rhule hiring at all. Did not want. But down the line with Wilks, zi personally wanted him, and personally did not see the racism being a factor in the Reich hiring as much as the fixation with offensive minded play callers and copying that trendy model.  I am having a hard time calling to mind any Black coaches who were out there with the big offensive rep. At one time Byron Leftwich was a hot name who I liked. Don’t remember what happened there but he faded. Bienemy but I never believed in him much, personally.  I think Tepper basically excluded defensive guys and went for the top rated play caller OC types. And couldn’t get Ben Johnson and ended up settling with Reich.  Who ended up NOT being a yes man at all.

      Someone like Steve Smith wouldn't have last half a season under Tepper.
