Maye has been real meh without Josh Downs. 

The Pac-12 has been the spot to watch QBs.  Caleb, Nix, Ward, Penix, Sanders.  It's been fun. 

Drake Maye is having a very underwhelming season thus far.  That UNC team isn't doing him favors but he's just not as commanding moving that offense as I thought he'd be (braces for UNC fans)

And Bo is older than Bryce. Not sure what to make of him.

Bo, I don't know.  He's improved a lot, has a lot to like.  

The growing reality is a lot of rookies are going to be older with just how things like NIL and college life seem to be evolving these days.  See -- Hooker, Levis, Nix, Rattler, Travis, Penix, etc.  All 23+ coming out.  I almost expect some adjustments are being made on the scouting side to put a little less emphasis in the age department.  Unless there's some super promising 20-21 y'o Junior coming out (like Caleb) that become the obvious exceptions in a top tier.

Yea, we lose this game I don’t see any kind of recovery for a respectable season possible. Not making the playoffs or anything was an understandable expectation. 0-6, likely to turn into a 2-4 win season would be a big disappointment. 

A respectable season went out the window last week. We're almost certainly starting 0-6, with the majority of a roster that finished 7-9 last year.

Eh, not really. We don’t have our guards, starting WR, RBs are different, instability at QB, new system means old roster is learning new schemes which means you can’t compare directly to last year. Plenty has changed and it’ll take time for it to settle in.

We don’t know what the inverse of the situation would have been. We could have signed Derek Carr, Jimmy G, or minshew and never made the trade. Then ended up finishing around 7-10 - 11-6 …. Then picking in the middle of the first next year. 
 

then how are we feeling? Delaying the inevitable at that point.

we can create as many universes as we want … but stressing about what pick the bears get completely dismisses the purpose of the deal. 

Well sadly in this universe we traded 5 premium players to pick young and somehow get worse as a franchise.

The Houston, Indy and Chicago games are the ones that will be super telling/could result in some major shade being thrown if we don't start pulling out Ws.  Those are the teams in our tier going into the season.

2 of them being in the same boat - New coach, new QB, major makeovers throughout.  The other team being in absolute disarray after we gave them our top offensive weapon and draft pick in 2024.  

That stretch will be telling.

This Vikings game -- we at minimum need to see a competent offense with Bryce on the field.  No ifs ands or buts about it.

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
