Todd McShay seems to really like Anthony Richardson

Carr is boom or bust like Cutler and he's 32 years old. You don't tie up 30+ million a year in that kind of a risk after you've already traded for Darnold and Mayfield. Be realistic people. The draft is the only path forward.

I’ll trust whatever decision our coaches make.

Ofc I would accept it and support but that doesn't mean I have to be blind to the possible cons. I think the % odds of Carr being who we hope is at best even with what we would get drafting a quarterback. When you add in the fact we would have to pay him 35 million a year that's a BIG miss if it doesn't work in our favor. At least with a draft pick if you miss you aren't sinking your salary cap too.

If this coaching staff and FO love him, take him at 9, no issues there.

However, he will need a year of sitting, and likely more.

Fine by me, invest in the future....but you need to win now, and we will need a good Vet if we go this route.

Rivers sat for 2 years, Rodgers sat for 3.

I don't see a point of drafting him to sit for a year or two.  There's a guy like Richardson every year in the draft.  Now that I thought about it and watched a little tape, I'd be cool with the Skoronski pick.  Skoronski would solidify us having one of the best OL's in the league.  Corbett is coming off the ACL tear so we have a hole there.  I'd also swing Christensen to RG.  

Icky, Skoronski, Bozeman,  Christensen, Moton.  If Corbett is 100 percent I'd switch Christensen back to primary rotational player.

Icky, Skoronski, Bozeman, Corbett, Moton.  That's a nasty line.

It just reeks of a Kirk Cousins kinda move. Good enough to make it to the wild card game every other year and lose, always picking around 15-20. And it's not even really your own guy you drafted. I think Cousins is better than Carr and most on the Vikings message board are ready to move on and draft a guy instead of paying Kirk $35M a year over and over again with the same mediocre results

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
