Corral deserves a fair shot

Why is it that when some on here hope that Corral has success in this league that we are consider Corral lovers? 

Lets be real here for a minute: 

I was one of the few supporters of Corral on this forum but mainly because a bunch of you believe he is a bust after, what? Two preseason games? It really isn't enough to actually label him a bust and in fact, I am fairly certain that Fitterer even said he was a project QB.

That said, I will support which ever QB has the most success with this team and if anything, I hope Corral develops into a decent back-up for the future behind Young because I do not foresee Dalton being the long term solution to our back-up QB position. 

We will see though. I just hope they do give Corral some time with the 2nd string at least during pre-season.

I am with you on this

Rhule and his clown show put the kid behind the eight ball from the get go. Yes he is a third round pick and in the few snaps he did get looked lost.

The staff needs to see what he can do and actually give him a fair shot. If he shats the bed, so be it. 

Give him reps and a full camp and see what happens. Dalton doesn't need much to hit the ground running. Need to do the right thing and see what they can do with the kid.

Right now I think he is getting a shot at staying in the NFL.

On the team's end, there are a ton of scenarios that are literally a play away. Think two or three years down the line, you aren't thinking Dalton. You want to thoroughly evaluate every option. They should be, or have a good reason why. 

New people get benefit of the doubt until they don't, I am gonna believe they are having their conversations.

Meh. He’ll get his “fair” shot, and if by some miracle he actually significantly outperforms Bryce?  He’ll get more opportunities. If it looks even remotely close, obviously it’s going to go to the guy they think had a brighter future, the guy they gave up some picks and a starting WR for.

I hope he does enough in training camp and preseason to gain interest from other teams for a trade. Give him a fair shot with someone else, we don't need 3 on our roster 

With the new rules you’re just shooting your self in the foot for no reason if you dont carry a third. No reason not to

I think most teams will now that you are allotted an extra game day roster spot for a third QB. Honestly, there's no good reason not to.

That was a proposed rule change that didn't pass the owner vote this offseason.

Maybe they'll try it again next year or in the future, but there isn't going to be a bonus game day spot for a 3rd QB this year.

adding as many bodies as you can to help with the transition to the 3-4 defense and to keep more olinemen that we think we should hold onto in order to better protect Bryce in the future are 2 really good reasons to start.

Guess there are still a few Corrall groupies around

Such a ridiculous and childish response with absolutely zero basis other than "He said something and it hurt me wittle feelings so I go poo poo in my diaper!"

It hurts absolutely nothing to keep him around in order to see what he has and if he develops into something backup material or if he develops into starter material and potential trade bait. It is so telling and pathetic that you would call him a "groupie", let alone flip him off for having an opinion that is both rational and makes sense for the betterment of the team. You are a shining example of why a tubby basement dwelling buffoon with chubby greasy troll fingers should not be allowed to peck away at his mommy's computer while she is upstairs fixing his Kid Cuisine microwave dinner.

So please tell me, what is so funny with keeping the guy around to see if he can develop into trade bait or a decent backup? I mean, if you can post gifs constantly then post me a few reasons why trying to develop him for future assets or just as a reliable backup is so funny? You must have reasons other than Gifs since you are so passionately a "No" on this.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
