You don't trade up in the 3rd when you're lacking picks to draft a project.  They had a 1st round grade on the guy and thought it was a steal.  The Dolphins took a guy in the 7th that looks better.

Why not?? You didn't give up much and again it's a young QB with alot of raw talent...

You wouldn't be saying this poo if we had gotten Malik would you??

Even if he looked bad due to low reps...

Yes, context. In NFL preseason play which is all we have on rookies right now, they look better. No one is trying to put them in the HOF. 

Now add the fact that none of there teams is in a QB competition.. So those rookies are getting way more reps then Corral..

You're just conveniently ignoring that these guys look better than Corral.

No one was down on Corral until he took the field in the preseason and looked really bad.

Oh yes the preseason. I remember Ryan Leaf looked better than Peyton Manning in the preseason.

You'd have a point if every other rookie QB wasn't looking better so far.

Most other rookies are 2nd stringers on their team and playing with better talent/having better reps. Baker is our guy this year. Corral has a big learning curve from the Ole Miss RPO to an actual NFL offense. 

-Pickett is competing for the starting job

-Titans typically carry 2 QBs and want Willis as their 2

-Ridder is competing for the starting job

-Howell is the number 2 and has a shot to take Wentz’s job

Look no further than how PJ looked in quarter 1 vs 3 to see what kind of talent Corral is working with.

He does look bad but there could be a reason.. He isn't getting the focus due to Baker and Sam...

But again it's just preseason.. And I'm not worried a 3rd round QB doesn't look great right away..

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
