What if Plummer shows out????

Plummer was bad man. Yes, he took 5 sacks, but at least 3 of them happened because he held the ball forever and could have at least made through aways.

You can't be too tough on him though, I mean he was an undrafted QB who really was very average in college too. His measurable's are awesome, but man, he's got a long way to go in just game sense and understanding the position.

It will be interesting to compare him and Joe Milton (who I really wanted us to take in the late rounds) to Spencer Rattler (Who I also would have loved for us to take a flyer on) when he plays. All older players who dropped stock with rough final seasons in college.

It's not really being tough on him, he shouldn't even be on the team. It's on Morgan for not putting any effort into getting someone that at least looked somewhat competent in college for qb3. They could have found someone better if they really wanted to

True that. Plummer wasn't even good in those mini-camps that they signed him in. They just needed an extra arm. Hopefully they have some urgency to sign some other potential guy. I'll say this, the Pat's won't be keeping 4 QBs, so one of Zappe or Milton should be available and either of those 2 guys would be an immediate upgrade.

I would bet it will be Zappe - and I would scoop him up immediately without apology.  He is a serviceable backup with significant starter experience, low cost, and young.

In no way am I defending plummer, but the fans on social media claiming he had help and time to throw I guarantee will not keep the same energy for bryce and we know that. This is bout to be a back to back  year clown show and argument amongst fans this year.

Pretty sure the plan is to tank this season

It's not the plan, per sé, but it's yet another organic tank on the back of several horrible trades and drafts. There's not enough talent here to win. That's not really tanking in any way. I think they want to win, but are as unsuccessful as the gang in "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" were with any get-rich-quick scheme.

I bet they were planning on Andy doing the bulk of preseason work.

It would be tough getting a lot of decent tape on Dalton in preseason if Bryce doesn't take a huge step up. I dunno really what they want the optics to look like right now. They surely can't continue the "Bring Dalton in for a qb sneak" strategy of last year and expect anyone to feel optimistic. *I apologize if I have offended anyone in a minor criticism of our QB situation in advance*

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
