Anyone else shamelessly 'pro tank'? (Lay on the floor for Sheduer)

The player to tank for was Caleb Williams. Which we did, sorta.

Crazy how many years it would have benefited us to pick No. 1 in the draft and we won some random games.  Then the one year we finally earn it again, we don't even have the pick.  It really can't get much worse than that.

I would say they are cursed, but it really comes down to stupidity

you all know that the #1 ranked QB in the nation (who happens to be Beck, not Sanders) can change a lot.  Some underdog will surface (like Burrow, Nix) and some sure fire #1 overall will drop (Howell, Rattler, e.g.)---About Sanders--can you imagine dealing with his father and him during contract negotiations?  Yikes.  I like UGA's Beck, and there are about two or three sleepers who could step up this year.  Ewers, for example. My dark horses?  Donovan Smith, Houston, Will Howard, Ohio State, and my favorite--Jalon Daniels, Kansas (needs to stay healthy).  However, any of these QBs could emerge as a top 10 draft pick:    Dart (Ole Miss), Milroe (Bama) or Gabriel (Oregon).  So many names we just do not know that well due to the transfer portal, but there is some strong potential. 

 

I still hope Bryce becomes the guy.  Now or never.

As bad a pick and player/draft capital management as occurred to get Bryce Young.  I do not want Sanders on our Panthers.  Riley Leonard may be the next big QB in the draft to really position for.  There are certainly others as well.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
