It's obvious to anyone with eyes who isn't engaging in self deception for whatever reason.

I don't think Fields is a good idea though. There will be other options. Sign one of the younger veterans and draft a QB to let him sit. We aren't going to be competing for some time anyways it's all about development and trending upward while we rebuild.

I think Justin Fields is still young enough to be developed into a good QB. I would love having him here with Canales running his offense.

I agree he's young enough and he has the prerequisite traits and talent you need to try to shape a franchise QB out of him. The issue is I'm just not sold this is the place to fix him. Until proven otherwise I'm not seeing Canales as the QB whisperer of sorts that he was billed as when we hired him. He had input along with Morgan on this QB room in the offseason. They chose to back themselves into this corner. And we currently sit 29th in the league in passing yards per game and 28th in points per game.

For comparison sake:

2023:

Passing yards per game - 161.2

Points per game - 13.9

2024:

Passing yards per game - 170.7

Points per game - 16.7

For all the talk about how bad Reich and his staff were that's really not encouraging. To have invested what we did in the offensive line in one offseason we really need to see better results than this through the remainder of the season under Canales.

Fields would be a bad idea if you are bringing him in to start. Unless we want to run the triple option.

Ward I don't think will be available when we are picking. 

I wouldn't HATE the pick but he is a pretty wild gunslinger type. Could be Winston, could be Mahomes.

Ward will be there at No. 1 or No. 2.

Man this is the same speculation that was posted like three days ago. It’s basically an article quoting an article. They not be sold on Bryce but this article ain’t talking about nothing. 
 

That’s said Nothing makes me wanna throw up more than an idea of drafting another first round quarterback but I also understand this was not Morgan’s pick.

      2025 College Football Thread

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      UNC's football relevance has always basically been, "Hey, remember how great our basketball program is?" To extent that has worked but they have never been able to capitalize on that towards being a legit ACC power. The closest was Mack Brown 1.0 and that was stopped by prime Bowden FSU. TBH, they should have utilized all these resources they just poured into Belichick into, IDK, a legit college football coach? This is one of the more insane uses of that kind of money I have seen in CFB, which is no stranger to insane, irresponsible uses of money. The SEC and Big Ten have already shot themselves in the foot. The model they are operating on only works if TV revenues continue to go up. Well, demographics aren't working in their favor. Economics either, TBH. The NIL didn't change very much, if you notice. The haves still have and the have nots don't. The only difference between pre-NIL and NIL was the money being below the table and above it. College athletics has never at any point been about fairness. It's the most dramatically unequal system in all US atheltics. My only hope is that the collapse is swift, dramatic and most importantly SOON. I would like to see the rebuilding of this all to something closer to what it was 40-50 years ago. Regional and not such money grubbing nonsense.

      Hendon Hooker signed to practice squad

      By Waldo · Posted

      Meh Dalton looks washed. He was good for at least 1 entertaining game a year but Im not sure he even has one of those left at this point. His game style and old age hasn't been a good combo IMO.  Not going to compare him to Hooker because Hooker is another longshot to ever be worth a #2 spot. At least he isn't Plummer I guess. Young better stay healthy or they could go backwards in wins with those 2 options this year.
