Tony Pauline doesn't see a quarterback at #6

It seems unlikely that we will take a QB at 6th imo. Even if there is a run on OTs we'll still have an excellent non-QB prospect fall in our lap, and at that point we might be able to trade down or select him. Passing on Fields last draft could be a preview of what's to come in the 2022 draft.

The 2023 draft is going to be loaded with better QB prospects than this draft from what I understand. Letting Sam have his last shot at becoming our franchise QB in 2022 is actually a good idea. Sam will have a better understanding of our system, and an improved o-line. If Sam runs the 2022 season into the gutter, then we'll be at a high position in the 2023 draft to select a great QB prospect. That's how you can end up in the Super Bowl in a few seasons with a great QB still under his cheap rookie contract. And If Sam goes out and kicks ass in 2022, then we have our franchise QB.

People kill me with these the value is here and all this. Guess what. Value is for people who have enough all ready. You don't go shopping for a luxury car when you riding a bike. We know the tackles are safer and probably better but if you don't have a guy to build around that value doesn't really matter. 

The value of a qb isn't just in that. Your valuing that qb vs all the other guys you  can sign on his rookie contract vs a tackle.

If he couldn't get it done with all that talent in Cleveland. I don't want to see what he does with less here.

Exactly, no one wants to see this. Chance your QB whether at 6 or 16, it literally does not matter if they hit.

What does “getting it done” mean though? Besides this year where he was hurt the entire season he definitely got it done by browns standards

He hasn't been getting it done which is why he is on the way out. Obviously you don't let a guy walk who was winning or you had confidence in winning you playoff games.  He hadn't been getting it done enough I suppose.

Even if Baker was performing at an Alex Smith level in KC, if a talent like Watson comes available, you go after him. Watson can likely get you to a SB repeatedly, and that's what the ultimate goal is.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
