Does Brian Daboll get fired?

What the hell is going on in this crazy world we all live in?  OK, maybe the intro was too dramatic, but look at the plight of some established QBs on huge mega deals:

24.  Aaron Rodgers  50.7 QBR

25. Dak Prescott 47.4

26. Daniel Jones 47.0

31. Derek Watson 22.4

Meanwhile, unloved stocks with much lower salaries when signed who have busted on their previous teams are outperforming these guys making $50m or so a year:

10. Derek Carr 61.5

14. Jared Goff  59.1

18.  Baker Mayfield 56.4

19.  Sam Darnold 55.5

So if these 4 retreads are outperforming 4 QBs getting paid bank, what does that say about the market?  I should add that the top 9 QBs were drafted by their current teams--and three of them were not picked in the first 30 picks of their respective drafts--one was Mr. Irrelevant.  Three were first overall picks.

Interesting note:  Cousins is ranked 15th, and he got pulled for the Falcon's first round rookie on Sunday. 

I realize that there are many ways to evaluate a QB, but here were some shockers: 
CJ Stroud is #20.  Jayden Daniels (love him) is ranked #5 and Drake Maye is #12.  Caleb Williams is #27.  For some unexplained reason, Bryce was not listed.

I have no idea where in the world you are getting your salary numbers from by those guys are by QB salary rankings as follows:

Rodgers: 17th

Prescott: 1st

Jones: 16th

Deshaun Watson: 11th

 

Carr: 18th

Goff: 6th

Mayfield: 19th

Darnold(keep in mind he is on a BACKUP QB salary): 22nd

 

"Mega" deals is eye of the beholder but from 1-19 they are all above $33 mil AAV. The Mahomes deal(the original mega deal) is 13th.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
