if you’re dropping from 6th to middle of the pack it better be for multiple ones, and you never ever pass up your choice of QBs when you have a need at the position.

 

but there’s too much (erroneous) glorification of how Seattle got by during fitterer’s tenure that I’m inclined to believe he thinks it’s a good approach

seattles been amongst the worst drafting teams in the league

That is the thing, if you have a QB you really think is the guy, take him at 6. If you are after a QB and you are trading down into the mid to late 1st to grab him, you obviously aren't sold on him either.

And I am saying this as a guy that is low on this entire class.

A 2nd tier qb and a 2nd tier LT.   Instead of a first tier elite tackle.    I go with the latter every time.  

Are we talking about what you would do or what they will do?  I am predicting what I think they will do.

I'll believe it when I see it but the only problem with trading back is missing on some starters waiting around. We got a little too cute with that last year. Can't repeat that this year. But an OT and a QB would certainly be nice.

they’re going to get cute, move down, and take Ridder or some fourth wave guy because “when I was in Seattle we got Wilson in the 3rd round” and pat themselves on the back for picking up a couple pointless picks and being ‘smarter’ than everyone else

And then draft Howell to appease the UNC fans, while one of the better QBs becomes a star.

We will inevitably fug this up. I suspect if this happens it will be the start of the opinions turning against Fitterer in larger numbers.

I've been down on Fitterer for a while. He's either a yes man which is a bad problem or he's an even worst problem helping make the bad decisions the FO made last year. I also wasn't happy with last year's draft and their desire to churn the bottom of the roster instead of building the top and middle of the roster.

if we walk away with an OT and Howell, Fitterer deserves a damn medal

Sounds good

I think Thule wants Pickett badly.

Fit and Mcadoo probably want Willis/Corral

So Howell/Ridder n an OT is the best option for all.

Pickett got a whole day to prove himself.

I want Willis, he's raw but his skill set would enhanced those around him. Pickett good also but I have Corral ahead of him also.

      Down in Atlanta....

      Everyone talks about how important it is to draft a QB in round 1 and have the "5th year option" I haven't seen it play out the well over the past several years. The good/great QB' aren't playing the first 5 years under their original deal.  After year 3 or 4 they are getting mammoth extensions. Having Penix take over in year 3 may actually save the Falcons some money over the next 5 seasons. I doubt they'd give him an extension after his first year as a starter if he took over the starting position after the guaranteed portion of Kurt Cousins new deal ends in 2025.   In terms of playing time, Penix 3 years as a starter would be ending with the 5th year of his rookie deal (assuming his option was picked up). The money Penix would be making in year 5 of a rookie contract would be significantly less than the upper echelon 5 year starters are making now.

      I mean you can see it in his highlights - he has CBs from Yale and Colgate in his hip pocket.  Yes he's making contested catches and moving the chains, but those aren't even P4 CBs and he's struggling to separate.

      Working for a season under Adam Thielen (another undrafted WR) should be a positive factor.  Some of these issues are correctable.  Many kids from small schools not only lack experience against DI schools, they lack the coaching that develops talent.
