Corral is better 

In fairness, I don't know if he is or isn't better but what I do know is that he'll compete for the starting job.  I don't give a rats @SS if that QB is the #1 pick.  He's not going to be given the keys without earning it. 

Anyone that believes that the head coach is going to give the rookie QB the starting job without working for it, is insane.   To the chagrin of our Tanker counterparts that believe a drafted QB has the job and it's his to lose, they are wrong.   He may be given every opportunity to win it, but Corral is going to be out there showing he is as good if not better.

Most will also agree several talking heads had him as the best QB in the draft and his stock dropped over some BS off the field statements.  

I have no issues with drafting a QB but I can guarantee you that Corral will be in the conversation with our prospective head coach.  

You love riding the injury and lower draft status as if it is your only justification.  Many of Corral's traits transition to the NFL quite well.  Especially decision making and quick release.  He had, by far, the quickest release of any QB in recent drafts including this one. 

Here's the way I see it.  

Trade down and get a 1st this year and next.  Pick a QB, whoever it may be with the lower pick.  Let that QB and Corral compete.  If they both bomb you have 2 first round picks to move up and get a Franchise QB like Maye.   And you don't have to tank to do it. 

We keep going around in circles yes I believe teams tell the truth when they use draft capital especially on the QB position. And losing an entire season being a project/system QB puts him right behind the 8 ball. Sure I believe he will be on the roster but if we draft a bloke high it will take minor miracle for him to win the job

Weak argument, bro.  I haven't seen one thing Stroud does great, alot of nice things and some bad things.  Young, as I said earlier, his height worries me.  I remember RGIII.  Fortunately for the Redskins they drafted Cousins.  Oh yeah, late in the same draft. 

Based on? Quick Release, accuracy, mobility, leadership? Or maybe it is just a freak accident with an O-Line that couldn't protect our children (on the field), as you proof they are better.  The only thing you truly have is all these talking heads thinks he's ready.  

Oh that's right, Corral comes from a Pistol offense where he doesn't go under center.  Stroud and Young are different because they are thoroughbreds for Alabama and OSU. 

Weak argument?? Lol 

You want to have a debate about a 3round QB who hasn’t played a down in the NFL.. Or base our draft Strategy on that QB.. lol 

no weak fuging opinion..

years of  production .. That’s the difference check their numbers in college compared to his and keep acting like you don’t see the difference.,

Jamarcus Russel won the national championship with LSU and is considered the biggest bust in NFL history.   His college production was amazing.  David Carr had an amazing college career and bombed out.  Do I need to go on with how great of college production means in the NFL?

Fields is 3-8 in his 2nd year.  He loves to run, one day that is going to get him destroyed.  How does that make him a better prospect.  

This is a consistent argument for the Tanker crew.  They are blah blah blah better than anyone from last year.  Alabama is having one of their worst seasons and most likely will miss the playoffs, I guess Young is the scapegoat.  He gets all the praise when he wins, why not the losses. 

This is dumb and way to long and has nothing to do with the underline problem with your opinion..

1. Situation and context is void in your analogy., 

example .. Nobody questioned Russell talent.. Russell didn’t fail because he wasn’t talented he failed because he didn’t want to work on his craft ate to much and decided to not look at film.. Talent and desire to play football are 2 different things..

but again I don’t want to go down the rabbit hole of ppl with your narratives or the not drafting a QB community..  It’s been 4 years of QB band aids and bad QB play.. I’m done with the BS.. Time to change up strategies.. good night

Don’t bother mate your brain will just start hurting. For some reason they think Corral is some world beating stud and not the project he was drafted in the 3rd to be

Fair enough on Russell but there a hundred of other top picks that just didn't pan out.  Tanking for one doesn't automatically change your direction.  It only shows your desperate.

WRONG!!!!

You guys just brush him off as an afterthought and ASS-U-ME that because he was a 3rd round QB that he can't or won't compete for the job.  

There isn't a Burrow or Herbert or even a Lawrence in this draft class that would win the job outright.  My contention is and most likely accurate, Corral will compete for the position.  If he doesn't beat the guy out, so be it, but he'll get an opportunity to compete.  You guys think he has no chance, I don't agree. 

You tankers want a QB regardless of other needs and that only 1 or 2 are acceptable.  Anything less is a road down to mediocrity.  I say with this draft class if you have a better opportunity to go down that road anyhow.

And how many wins?  

 

What's the difference?  3-8 is 3-8 and this is with a 2nd year QB.  I guarantee you, if Fields was on this team the huddle would be screaming to tank for another QB. 

LOL this is the dude that called Lance a bust after one game.  One game in a god damn hurricane and this dude says he is a bust.

LoL. Calm down dude. Corral will get a chance to compete for the job.

Then all the people who support him or don’t support him will be validated  

QB is the #1 need this off-season as it has been the last 3 years.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
