We draft a rookie, first overall, and we play them. No stupid QB competition like when Lawrence had to battle Minshew and they stole reps from each other. No stupid starting Dalton over Fields and stealing reps with the im first team away from your rookie. 
 

We are drafting them to play right away. They will play right away.

He wasn’t the first overall pick. 

He should have been.

He is probably the best qb drafted in the last 20 years, probably better than Stroud or Young and was a top 10 pick. And didn't start for a year.

 

If the coach believes he is ready, so be it. If it takes a few gamed, or evena full season, that is ok as long as he eventually becomes a good QB.

There was no rush to start Mahomes because they were 12-4 in the previous season with Alex Smith, and started off 5-0 and ended up winning the division/making the playoffs his rookie year. He may have been ready to play, but they had the luxury of waiting since the team around him was good and Smith could game manage well enough. I don’t see that situation being the same here.

Maybe, but the main concern imo should be to start the rookie when he is mentally ready.  If the coach decides that is the first game, so be it. But him being the first overall draft pick shouldn't matter. If having him him carry a clipboard for a few games is best for his longterm development, then that is ok

If the rookie can’t start the season we drafted the wrong rookie.

There's quite a bit of truth to this. It's not like our vet QB or the third stringer we are trying to trade have any experience in this coach's system yet either. 

Although, I really do want to see them put Matt Corral out there during the pre-season and give him some reps with the first team in a game. Maybe he'll be good, maybe he won't, but we'd be doing the kid a solid either way and help him to find a home. This situation wasn't his fault at all.

And who knows? Maybe if he starts as a rookie they win that Super Bowl. There’s been plenty of guys like Manning and Aikman who took bumps early and looked bad and ended up playing great. I’m a believer in live experience.

This is more than reasonable, but this place will shout “bust” if the rookie doesn’t start right away, and perform immediately like an elite QB. 
 

It is always entertaining.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Wow I can’t believe the panthers tried to trade up, failed, but still got the guy they wanted to trade up for. I wonder if anyone else has ever said that next you’ll tell me they had Hunter and Brazzell graded as first rounders.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option is a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The pattern it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  Probably should have been drafted day three anyway. The other was way over drafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.
