“Swing when you get the chance”

Browns 1st round QBs:

Baker Mayfield, Brandon Weeden, Brady Quinn, Tim Couch, Johnny Manzel

Jets 1st round QBs:

Pennington, Sanchez, Darnold and Wilson


Yeah let me get some of that!

You're so scared you don't even realize what you're arguing for now. You're way beyond "next year". Now by your logic no team should ever draft QB in the first round again because they could *gasp* miss. I'll be here giddy as a MFer if and when we draft a QB and ya'll can sit and be mad if you want 🫡

Do you even understand how off seasons work? Do you realize the volume of NFL teams that have QBs under contract and the turnover of such?

if I pointed out 16 teams you would be like “well that’s only half the league show me the other half”.

You’re thought process is like late 2000s Al Davis with dementia. 
 

So Mahomes one the SB this year, before that was Stafford a FA, Brady a FA (who was also a 6th round pick). 

And again I’m waiting on your philosophy to be explained.. Since I’m Al Davis what are you?? The hope and wish guy ??  I know you might be absent but we’ve done the FA retread thing 3 years in a row.. We went after Stanford, Wilson, and Watson.. We have done the Diamond in the ruff thing with Allen.. What is your plan exactly since I’ve stated mine ??

No I didn’t I’m playing the with the same Goal post you are.. You’re the one trying to change the game..

Top 10 QB picks on original draft team was the metric I was using.  Somehow 3rd-7th in a draft year came up.  Obviously the percentages goes down, but what position doesn't? I found a year-2014 that had three guys start successfully for their teams later in the draft.  Was it 3rd-7th? No, but who cares--dumb and arbitrary parameters you set forth to somehow make your point.  Higher draft picks tend to do better, you don't say?

Anyway, I do the digging and you ask rhetorical questions.  Do your own research, for one, and two, you will see the folly of moving up at all costs for QBs.  Strategically moving up is fine, but not at all cost because of irrationally impatient fans.  I've stated today that I'd be willing to go up to #5 if one of the two is still there.  Moving to #3 or #1 is--I'll plainly say it--STUPID.

In this situation you go after Carr. He has had a very similar career to Stafford. Our coaching staff is so high powered it will be picked apart the next 2 years by teams poaching for their staffs. So you have to take your shot while the OL and defense is solid. Take BPA in the draft and take your shot like the Rams/Bucs did.

I’ve already done the research and “You’re the one who brought the 1/4 QB stat not me”.. The research already has spoken that the hit rate on getting a Qb in the 1st round especially too 10 is better then getting a QB any other way..

Good thing we don't want a first round RB!

I think people get too caught up with Super Bowl wins. It takes a talented team, coach, QB, and some luck to win one. The best chance at winning one is the build a constant contender. A team always in the playoff race. You need a good coach and a franchise QB to do this. We need to build a consistent playoff team then worry about a final piece to make a Super Bowl push. Bengals Burrow, Chiefs Mahomes, and Allen Bills are going to be constant AFC threats. All have talented QBs (2 were traded up to draft), with smart coaches that have built solid teams around these young QBs. That’s the blueprint we should follow IMO.

There is also a clear shortage on franchise QBs in the league. This means QBs that could have been 2nd round picks in the past will likely get drafted higher (in the 1st). It’s the most valuable position in sports. If our now very experienced staff falls in love with one then Fitt should have no problem making a trade up happen to acquire that QB.

The Brady thing happening is extremely rare if not once in a generation. The GOAT QB becomes a FA and decides where he wants to play while still playing at an elite level. I’m not interested in trying to replicate that.

McVay built his team on trading picks for vets and paying for big time free agents. It’s a solid strategy but very short term. It’s one of the reasons he is flirting with going into broadcasting. He knows his cap is about to be screwed while his team ages out.

Ppl neglect to see That.. The teams that get it right and draft and develop their QB are usually always have a chance.. The teams that play this QB musical chairs are constantly disjointed and hoping for luck..

Thank you god… For somebody recognizing how rare the Bucs and Rams situations are..

ppl in here want to play the bust rate on 1st round QBs but don’t want to do the math on how rare it is for The Bucs and Rams situation was in being successful..

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
