Not the Texans with their plethora of picks? 

They have way too many holes to make that kind of move… they are actually in the best position out of all of the team in this draft. They have a poo load of picks and will be guaranteed to land at least one of the top four QBs without spending a dime

Seriously?  Vick over P Manning?  Im honestly not clowning and Ill admit that as a Panthers fan I still have nightmares of Vick leaving his feet at the 7 yard line and somehow levitating into the end zone.  But are you saying you'd take Vick over Manning?

 

Help me out with that.

In the sense that the demands could not be reached. 

No chance ATL was trading the vick pick. Plus just like the others, vick checked all the boxes, his arm strength was legendary. About the one issue, he was a lefty with accuracy questions. 

College wise, hard as it is to make this work. For sure Id taken vick over manning. A tyreek hill that has a 155, gimmie that.....

Is my memory not working… didn’t Atlanta trade up to get Vick?

 

so wouldn’t your argument be that the chargers would never trade the number 1 pick? But yet they did…..

Yes!! I don’t understand why ppl are trying to put Vick on this list because he was seen the same way Cam was.. 

? on accuracy 

? on football intelligence 

? on work ethic

? on if his style of play could work in the NFL..

Nooo Vick was not looked at like Elway, Lawrence or Luck..

Maybe my isnt, cause I dont recall that. I do remember SD had terrible ownership and rep, that many avoided ala eli deal as well. Was there any "I aint playin for SD?". Plus didnt SD have rivers or brees? I somewhat remember elway refusing to play for colts and sparking giant issues- trades, AFL, etc. I think the pick was traded for too, but more of a forced deal. 

They did get offense LT and brees(2nd round and bunch other picks), so didnt already have QB. hmmm. 

I still put Vick right there after the elway, luck, and law. I feel like people forgot how he was the living cheat code for some time.

Vick and Chargers couldn’t land on a rookie deal https://theathletic.com/2535152/2021/04/27/the-2001-nfl-draft-trade-that-changed-the-falcons-chargers-and-qb-play-forever/

Thats part of it, SD had a AWFUL rep and it goes to the money. I take that a slight * in regards to the trading of the pick. The way Archie handle SD behind the cameras, was OG gangsta style. That was soon after and the same method were being used.......SD was cheap and hated paying rookies top money(they had lots of hold-outs), they were partly right cause in 2011 it was changed.

    • Are you guys trying to say that the Cam ‘haters’  exactly mirror the Darnold ‘lovers”? Same people?  I don’t think that is it at all. I think it is more likely to be different people, probably with some overlap. This racism thing, when most of the team and league is Black and people are big fans of plenty of Black players, but have football issues with one or two and that makes them a racist? I don’t understand that at all.   I will tell you also, Sam Darnold at the price he would have cost, and all that cost invested in other areas plus we’d have DJ Moore, was a far better option than what they did.   
    • More of the same, but with actual statistics thrown in with the film review. It's a long one He puts blame on the offense and coaches as well, but doesn't sound too high on Bryce's ceiling. Lots of words but here's the basic summary Young’s lack of arm strength and size creates little room for error in his play. If he takes one extra hitch or is a hair late getting rid of the football, defenders often make plays on the ball or squeeze windows even tighter. The issue is that Young constantly needs to take an extra hitch to get enough zip on the ball when throwing to the outside and he often needs to work backward in the pocket to see that target. What does this all mean for Young going forward? Well, let’s just say it’s not exactly a rosy start to his professional career. It’s a rough statistical profile and his play wasn’t overwhelming when I studied him. Yes, former No. 1 picks like Goff and Trevor Lawrence have overcome their horrid rookie years to become viable quarterbacks, but those are the exceptions to the rule, and Lawrence showed more glimpses of high-end play during his rookie year during the Urban Meyer experience than Young did under Reich and the rest of the Panthers' funky bunch coaches. This is not to say that Young is a bust already, either. His accuracy and intelligence still translate to every offense and still give him a floor as a viable starter, and better teammates, like the newly acquired Diontae Johnson and explosive rookie wideout Xavier Legette, should help highlight those traits even more. But, you take a player No. 1 overall to move the needle, not to just get the job done. Young has a path to be a quarterback who can keep an offense on time with some ad-libbing ability to add creativity and spice to an offense (Alex Smith, another quarterback with a rough rookie season, is a play style and career comparison I keep coming back to for Young). But to justify that 1.1 selection, Young (and Canales) have to push it even more in 2024 and beyond. https://sports.yahoo.com/bryce-youngs-hopes-for-a-bounce-back-season-with-panthers-comes-down-to-more-than-just-his-supporting-cast-140010168.html
    • Definitely in the running. I’d probably go Oakland. Lost football, seriously crappy baseball team. They have Golden State Warriors I guess.
