The flaw in the following thinking

That'd be pretty heavily contingent on us not having any other big needs though.

If we are in the top 5/10 range and there is a solid prospect there I think we take him. Don’t let the 3rd round guy cause us to miss on another prospect unless he some how proves he is the guy his rookie year which is highly unlikely. If they both turn out great we can flip the lesser for picks.

Possible, but if the quarterback isn't part of the reason we're losing, I wouldn't necessarily look to replace him.

Agreed, but it could be argued since we couldn't run the ball last year, and Joe Brady was a child, that the QB wasn't the ONLY reason we lost last year. 

A rookie QB is very unlikely to shine, so if Corral starts and we suck, he's going to take some blame, even if its not all on him.

Maybe allow Donald to start, and after a few weeks if is still the same old Sam with this line. Then put Corral in and see what happens.  No reason to throw Corral to the wolves right away.  They didn't start Kerry right away.  You are correct this is the last year of Sam in Carolina.

I don't know how much I consider it throwing him to the wolves if he is just plain better.

That's what I mean, if he wins the job....he's the guy. He's gonna have some growing pains if he starts in Game 1 or Game 14.

I disagree with that bolded part. By all accounts, Sam is a true professional. There is a very real chance that Sam could be an excellent mentor. 

 

As a general rule. QBs are not the most eager of mentors.

I can't agree with that. Cam came back and outclassed Sam by miles AND showed us just how good of a leader of men he is. Learn THAT.

Sam's a cool guy. I get it.

I think if you were to go through the projected starting quarterbacks for the upcoming 2022 season, you'd find many got their first start before week 8 of their rookie year. 

If I have time tonight, I will try to put together the data. 

I don't know about week one but Corral has to be starting by week 8.

I'd be interested to know, how MANY starts they had their first year, not if they started a game before week 8.

    • I think you know. Apparently winning is secondary to Bryce’s development. Same as it has been.     In a way it may be good because we didn’t need to make the playoffs and extend this fuging charade about Bryce being the guy. Better in the long run if he gets enough rope to hang himself with. 
    • Dave Canales is not the problem. He just isn't 
    • I know DC is overthinking this and he really needs to be OC or HC, but how do you call plays with a QB that in all reality, shouldn't be starting. Bryce is wildly inconsistent. He should lean on Rico and the run game, but if he does and wins, it presents a false narrative that Bryce is better than he is and he's potentially stuck with him for another season. If he doesn't, he looks incompetent as a play caller, but it exposes the ugly side of his QB situation that he really does need a QB that can execute at minimum a basic NFL offense with some decent consistency.  I feel a little sorry for the guy because he was anchored with Young this season and even more weight with Dalton getting a 2 year deal. He has very little to work with at the most important position on his team and it's not his doing. The trade deadline was approaching and it was plainly obvious we needed to do something but we didn't for whatever reason.  I don't think he's a complete bonehead and don't know what he's supposed to do. Win games and potentially keep Bryce or lose them by putting the weight on Bryce's shoulders. Either he succeeds or fails.  As a coach I know you're supposed to play to win the game, but do you win now at the ultimate long term detriment to your team and locker room?
