Trading down to get picks because you make a mistake with Darnold and miss on a top talent at 6 just screams incompetence. 

Maybe he thinks there isn’t much of a drop off in the first 20 or so. It’s also the reason why we might not have anyone wanting to trade up.

The fact that we are picking at 6 as opposed to deep in the 1st speaks more to their incompetence than trying to acquire more picks in my opinion.

Lol no way this team trades back. They constantly talk about swinging at QBs and considering we don't have one there's no way they don't draft the QB they like most at 6.

They didn't spend effort putting an oline together on 1-2 year deals for Sam Darnold.

I am getting so many mixed messages. 
We are getting a QB at 6. 
We are not getting a QB at 6 and trade back. 
We are getting the best LT or DE at 6. 
If we don’t get either a good LT or DE we are trading back. 
Likely if we trade back we won’t be getting any of the QBs they want. Likely the Falcons and Seahawks and maybe even the Lions will all select a QB. 
Trading back is fine as long as we can get some value out of gag pick. Even though I have never been a fan of trading back.

why do I feel we are trading back, picking an LT/C and then picking up Ridder in the 2nd.  Keep in mind Carolina had one of the best looks at Ridder and no need to goto his pro day.

Ridder would have been wise to come out last year.

As always with these QB prospects, the longer you start the more tape scouts have to pick apart your game. 

He's not very well thought of in scouting circles from what I can see - inaccurate as hell with lots of mechanical flaws.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
