Brock Purdy and why we don't need to draft a 1st round QB

And? Hurts fits in Lamar and Brees’ group of guys who feel due to size or worry about them being run only. Those guys are sometimes around late 1st or early second. That said, there’s a lot fewer Hurts running around than recent first rounders.

Does #1 pick Kyler Murray fit that mold?

Hurts was a 3rd rounder FYI, like Corral.

Also, it's just a gif, breath.

You literally said this. That’s what my post was about. You said it’s far more likely to win with a guy like Jake than hoping to draft another Cam. That statement is completely false. Brady is the exception to the rule in the last 20 SBs and he was drafted 23 drafts ago. Taking the GOAT out of it, 1st round QBs win more SBs (they have 3 more than Brady) and make up more of the SB losers as well.

It is far easier to make the SB by picking a QB in the 1st. Outside of the miracle pick of Brady, it’s a shot in the dark to make the SB with a non first rounder. Heck, we’d give up a ton to have Allen, Lamar, Herbert, Lawrence and maybe even Tua right now and none of them have made a SB. Some of them probably will.

Man I hate message boards sometimes. Just a bad way to have a discussion. 
 

Basically what has happened is one or both of the following:

1. I wasn’t clear enough with what I wanted to say, and didn’t give enough detail/context.

2. You read too fast or missed/skipped around while thinking of your response. 
 

I don’t think we really have that much of a disagreement, and if this convo was over a beer, it would have taken 5 minutes to understand each other 😂.

    • I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.
    • Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.
    • Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
