Keeping 3 QBs #theory

If you keep 3 QBs on the 53, you better feel real good about the potential of #3. That spot could be used for someone who helps you today, not 2-3 years from now. 

yes. unless it's a true developmental guy like Corral, you don't want to use that 3rd. Have realistic expectations for that potential 3rd spot and who you have available. If you can keep them on the PS, do it.

Imagine if we picked him up and don't give him reps (which would actually make sense).  He might explode.....

id bring him in just to look at the knee, pretty sure we didnt use one of our visits predraft on him so it wouldnt hurt to just see whats going on.  He does have a howitzer for an arm

I'd much rather have a rookie with potential as our backup than Sam.  I was hoping Corral would become the 2 before the season was over, but we all know how that went....

I figured he'd do OK there.  Only place he's being mentioned is on eagles boards. They assume he's just not worth the time . Though it doesn't sound like they had any expectations for him.

He's apparently underwhelmed in the preseason/TC. Granted, he seems to be dealing with the same issue Corral was in receiving limited reps throughout, but based on what I have seen he has not been spectacular in the limited chances he has bene given.

Oh damn, I thought it was a knee thing, I dont follow the eagles so I just assumed.

apparently Reid Sinnett came into camp much improved from last season and the team has been mulling over the idea of trading away either him or Minshew to gain some assets in the draft. 

Because Sinnett has looked so good, Strong just hasn't gotten any opportunities and is looking like the odd man out.

If we are good enough to contend for a playoff spot, I would prefer Sam.  Not great, but maybe capable of winning a game or two if Mayfield is out.  

Plus anyone else we bring in will mean we have to pay them.  Not a lot of course, but we would be paying them, while Sam's cap hit is still on the books.

What should happen...

Trade Darnold for a bag of used footballs. 

Keep PJ on the practice squad. 

Grab Skylar Thompson from Miami. I might give a late round pick for that. 

I'd love to see Skylar brought in as a another developmental QB assuming he doesn't make their 53 ... sadly he may have played too well for the Dolphins to feel comfortable to try to stash.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
