If Darnold plays well,do they keep him around?

Just cut the whole damn group loose (keep M.C around), or keep Darnold as a #2?

If they do pick a QB in the draft, keep Sam around to start until the rookie is ready to take the job?

What's your thoughts?

Doesn't look like we are getting Stroud or Bryce. I am 1000% on board with rolling with PJ and Corral next year, see how Corral does and then make your decision on the QB position next year.

Reason being;

- Not a fan of any of the QBs this year

- Solidify another position through the draft or trade back this year

- Potential to draft Drake Maye or Harrison Jr. (depending on Corral situation) next year

I think it will ultimately come down to the HC, if its Wilks idk if he can afford another bad season but maybe he rolls with an offensive scheme similar to what we are doing now. And if we hire a new coach, he almost certainty will push to draft a QB this upcoming year.

That will be up to the next coach. As for me I'm indifferent to the whole thing. 

The whole QB position will be up in the air because a new head coach will want to put his stamp of approval on the team.

The QB position will be one of the main things he will address, to see who fits his his overall program plan..

Pretty much. That's why all this qb melodrama is a waste of energy.  Until that is settled I just don't see the point in worrying about it.

Depends. 
 

If Darnold plays good and isn’t replaced before the end of the year, Wilks probably keeps him on a cheap deal, PJ on a cheap deal, and Corral. Maybe add another guy in the draft or FA.

 

If it’s another head coach, doubt any of them stay except Corral because he’s on his rookie deal

That would pretty much be my take as well.

The FA list is pretty comical. Teddy/Baker/Sam/PJ/Heinicke/Kyle Allen. Been there done that. Then you have Jimmy G, Brissett, Minshew. Then you have Keenum/Dalton and a couple other aging backups that may or may not even be interested in football. I don't really want any of them for more than $5M max

    • I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.  
    • Considering our depth. Certainly kick the tires.
    • I am not so sure about that. I don't know that he is so soley offensively focused as winning focused. But, not really in a productive way. I get the impression he wants to be like Robert Kraft and take credit for "taking a risk on Bill Belichick" and being successful.  His track record indicates that in the NFL and in his business life.
