They aren’t drafting a QB and they aren’t trading away Fields. Stop. They are trading back or taking defensive help. 

We will see. The temptation to take the shiny new car is hard to pass on. Fields is not even close to being franchise changing. That’s is why a Chicago is picking #1.

If they draft a QB I’ll delete my forum account. If they don’t, delete yours.

That game only cost us 1 spot. Glad we won. Give me the wr from tcu or the highest rated cb

Yup, I'm wanting to see Johnston against that Georgia defense.  If he shows out tomorrow night, he should be the picks if still on the board.  As much as I want Mayer, it was PAINFULLY obvious today we need to seriously upgrade our WR room.  I lost count of how many times today the commentators said nobody was open for the Panthers.

I'd call the Bears about #2 but I expect the price to be STEEP. You can only make that trade if you're willing to bet your career on that guy being a future HOFer.

I'm for rolling the dice on Anthony Richardson at #9. Yeah, he's boom or bust. So sign Darnold as the backup so you don't have to play him until he's ready. Then you roll him out there and see if he booms or busts. If it's the latter, go get Drake Maye.

I'm thinking Arizona at 4. Houston takes Young or Stroud, we trade up and get the other at 4. Will cost roughly the equivalent of what we got for McCaffrey, which ain't too steep of a price IMO.

If top half of the draft goes QB crazy, there is going to be some excellent talent that could fall to us. I’d jump out of my chair if Paris Johnson, Tyree Wilson or Quentin Johnson fell to us. I’d much rather continue to build the lines and hell I’d be fine with picking a shutdown corner in the first (Gonzalez or Porter Jr.). We have a well built team, but we’re getting thin on the lines and if we can add some freaks to either side of the lines we’ll be set up very well for the next three years. Give Darnold time and we can win. Let’s not give up the franchise for some decent QBs in the draft when there is so much dynamic talent on the lines in this draft.

You have to hope Arizona is willing to move AND nobody else offers them more.

    • Nothing new, Run the ball and stop the run has always been the key in the NFL. So many on here don't want a game manager.  They want Dan Marino or Dan Fouts to be throwing the ball.  (neither of them won a SB)
    • Why do you intentionally twist things that people say? Please show me in my post where I said that the media has NEVER hyped up Bryce Young. The person I was responding to said that the media has created a mythos around Bryce Young.  And I asked if he can show me anything recently where the media has spoken about Bryce Young as if they are building a mythos around him.  And no, I don't consider articles from before he was drafted to mean jack ish - people are wrong, including you, including myself, about prospects every year. Since the season has started, can you give me one media outlet that has deemed Bryce Young to be a franchise QB / long-term answer at the position?  Don't bother responding with anything else.
    • But neither is 100 per game.  Sunday's game was very windy.  Both Young and Love felt it.   I'm no NFL QB but I can throw a football quite well.  Throwing in a strong wind is very difficult.  The shorter the throws the better chance you have of maintaining the zip on the ball.   The longer the ball is in the air the velocity decrease quite quickly.  Young's throw that was intercepted was the exact route XL scored on in Miami, but it was easily picked off due to the strong wind.   Love should have had two picks against him and both of them died in the wind.  So, while throw bombs is cool you have to take the conditions into account.
