Hahaha, I inferred that everyone is a homer and I passed no judgement. These are two separate things. One is being a homer and defending your guy against “accusations” from other posters. A completely different thing is how you rate said player I the draft. There is no spazzing or judgement, I was genuinely curious how you rate him. But you do you man.

I just want a rookie QB at this point. Any of the top four would do for me. Levis and AR have a higher ceiling but I don’t anticipate either one would start opening day. Stroud and Young would. 
 

I’ve probably watched Will more than anyone on this board. He is far from perfect but I see what a lot of other people see as far as potential. And if I think he’s being unfairly criticized then I have no problem defending him. I would defend Stroud and Young the same way, but they don’t get poo’d on nearly as much as Levis does. Especially on this board.

Who's behind him on the depth chart that's better?

Cap management and cap casualty.  Happens when your contract is disproportionate to your on field performance.  Nothing against him as a player.  Nice guy.  Team Captain.  I blame Hurney, not Shaq.  That said, team has to create some cap space.  Bears have cap space in abundance, Shaq becomes a starting LB for the Bears.  It’s just business.

Believe this was a Gettleman move.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
