What will we do with our 1st round pick...

The one that we get when we slap the 1st round tender on Moore (Restricted Free Agent) and a QB needy team betters the offer, which is not much for a young starting QB. I don't want it to happen, but do not think that it is outside of the realm of possibility.

So i assume no one here thinks that Moore would command a late first rounder if they could sign him for less than 2 mil a year? I don't think it would happen, but do think that there are teams out there that would give up a 1st rounder for a QB with 3 years of experience and proven success. Teams such as San Fran (who has 2 first rounders), Vikings (if Favre retires), Tampa Bay, Washington, Oakland, or Seattle.

The only way we get a first rounder this year is if they want to trade Williams... Or we trade ours next year with an additional late round pick. Draft isnt everything so I hope we just ride this year out and stick with what we have.

Sticking with what we have didn't work this year...granted the QB situation killed us. But remaining stagnant in the NFL these days is a recipe for disaster. Regardless, I think we should keep Moore and Williams, use the few picks we have for depth, and add a WR in FA. I just started this thread because the possibility always exists.

You might be on to something here. Maybe if we thrown in the water boy, and one of those smoke/fog machines.....it might just work.

Lets look at the teams that you think is looking at a QB, shall we?

SF- They had winning success with Alex Smith and have other problems then at QB, not likely to need a QB except for maybe a vet to back up Smith.

Minn- Could use a QB if Farve "retires" so I agree with this team

TB- Firmly believes in Josh Freeman and is still in development... Give them time, not likely to get a QB

Wash- May draft a QB but Shannohan may stick with Campbell

Oakland- Might be a possibility

Seattle- Might be a possibility

Out of all those teams, three may be a possibility. One team that you did not mention is Arizona... Which since they were in the playoffs, I don't think they can sign any free agents right? But with Warner retiring and the team not high on Leinart, look for Arizona to look for a QB as well

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By d-dave · Posted

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
