We were always going to win a couple more.  I still think we are top 5.  But the teams ahead of us are all qb hungry as well

 

the top 3 are gone and they we have to start reaching

Nah just grab Hooker, McCall, Hall, or McKee in the 2nd or trade back and draft one. UCLA QB looks good too. I think one if the big 3 will fall to us though.

I, for one, would love to see CMC dominate and the 49ers win, further proving Fhule's failure at all levels.

Why would we want that? Niners losing only increases the value of the picks we just got from them. Who gives a poo about Rhule... dude is getting paid handsomely to do nothing the next couple years.

It does help, but the bigger issue that's been getting overlooked all season is the defense letting long drives happen, often out of halftime or following offensive scores. 

Today, the Bucs are having quick 3 and outs and add to that the run game has been working better and the offense is staying on the field more. 

I get what you are saying, and I agree the D played a solid game today.  Especially in the third qtr.   But Tampa actually won the time of possession battle.  And if I am counting right, only had one three and out, along with one five and out to start the game.  But the D was fresh enough at the end to have a chance.  And that was huge.

But Tampa Bay's offense being terrible played a big role as well.

We are picking a qb in the first.   That’s locked in stone.  I doubt we have the stones to trade back and pick one.  We probably would just take the next guy on our ranking regardless of where we are.

Good point, my anger at Fhule is still guiding me.

If we are picking in the top 10 and the big 3 are gone there is no need to reach. After the top 3 there is a drop off, but still a long list of talented passers. 
However, there are still a lot of games left and I think we will walk away with Stroud, Young, or Levis.

JFC, Tampa has scored 3 points. Saying we would have lost with CMC is ridiculous. This Tampa team is garbage right now. If Jarret doesn’t get a penalty, Tampa’s 0-5 after beating Winston (he threw 3 picks). They are a bad team now. We win this game easily with CMC.

All of a sudden Chubba and Foreman are gods, lol. 

Never said any such thing about Foreman or Chubba, just that having an elite RB is less valuable than most here want to believe.  Having. An elite RB is essentially inconsequential in today's NFL.  Is it cool and fun to watch?  Absolutely.  Does it matter?  Nope.  Go find me the teams with one elite/workhorse/primary RB with the offense built around that who have won a Superbowl in the last few years.  Kamara, Taylor, and Henry are probably the most dominant other RBs in the league in the last few years and not one of them have a Superbowl or even sniffed one.  So Foreman and Chubba don't have to be "gods," they just have to produce in a committee just like they did today.  And it's amazing how functional the offense looks when you're not forcing the ball to one guy all day...  bekieve it or not, as fun as it was to watch, he held us back...  and any offense that relies primarily on one RB are setting themselves up for failure in today's NFL.

And to be clear, I wasn't saying we would've lost to Tampa with CMC if he scored 4 TDs - which also was asinine in itself because name the last time he scored 4 TDs.  The post I responded to also claimed he would score 4 TDs on all of those runs today, which is also hard to believe.  But regardless, I was saying because of the style of the offense we ran with CMC, we probably a) wouldn't have scored 4 TDs with him scoring all 4 of them as the other poster claimed and b) we wouldn't have won because the offense had no balance or sense of distribution.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      By strato · Posted

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
