Darnold is a total fugging hack... he is who he is and is what hes  been... we are gonna hustle his azz out there for posterity and realize again he blows... we all know. Coral will be in conservatively by game 4...It will be baptism by fire...not sure he can withstand that... i.e. david Carr....

A lot depends on if Tepper has guaranteed Rhule more time past 2022. If he has then Rhule could start Sam and only insert Corral if the bottom falls out. 

True.  

For now, I'm taking Tepper's comments at face value.  He seemed to give Rhule his unqualified support recently.  That coupled with no veteran backup suggests Rhule isn't going anywhere in the near future.

His list was a 2nd rounder, 6th rounder, 24th pick and 10th pick.

Your list is 3 number 1 overall picks, a 4th pick and 6th pick. There’s a big difference in expectations. Corral isn’t expected to be ready day 1. It would be surprising if he was and very possibly could be not so good for his development. 

He has a first round grade on many people's board. Unique draft, so I'm giving him the benefit of QB1 status.

He was the consensus QB1 last year.

The problem with Marshall was going against starting NFL CBs instead of guys not making teams. No idea if he’ll improve but my point was preseason stats aren’t all that meaningful.

I don’t disagree.  But I also think Rhule failed to give enough opportunities to the young guys.  I mean given what was ahead of Brady and TMJ.   And what are suppose to be….

Corral is the Aaron Rodgers of this draft. A guy who knew he was the best QB that year and sat there and waited and waited.

And yes, third is a slide but there were so many great lineman this year so it was almost inevitable.

Also there is a strategy out there to release bad info about something you want to buy to get that asset cheaper.

Now were they playing chess? Somebody was.

Face value he repeatedly said Sam Darnold was a very good QB right before they traded up for Corral.

Meh, maybe I shouldn't give Tepper the benefit of the doubt, but I was feeling generous at the time.

Even if Corral doesn't displace Sam Darnold out of the gate, it is a hopeful sign to see this franchise try to provide some competition at the QB position.  Something I can't recall happening in quite some time.

I'm interested in seeing a healthy Sam behind a good line in preseason. If he succeeds, he'll probably start week 1. Letting Corral ease into it is best for everyone, if Sam can play well enough to be a space holder.

Congratulations on the most level headed post.

As much as I would love the oline to start the season kicking ass, and taking names.... that doesn't seem to happen in the modern NFL. 

Sam is more physically gifted,  and knows the offense. 

He should be getting the start at the beginning of the season. 

Here is to hoping for a good start to the season, regardless whom is starting.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
