you had to go back 13 months to find something.  Kudos to you sherlock holmes, youve cracked the case

 

we missed you this past week

Typing "stan" in the search bar and then specifying you as the author is crazy easy to do, regardless of how long ago you posted it. 😛

Though I do appreciate you caring about my well being this past week. ❤️

we need a defensive heavy draft. 

I'm still on the double up Carter train.  Penn St Carter in the 1st and Clemson Carter in the 2nd. Front 7 players.  Maybe corner in the 3rd.   

I'd have said corner higher before Jackson started performing so well. He's been turning out some good performances here of late and yesterday really did great CB work.

If the wheels had come off / the Cowboys game had been a return to bad, and we'd lost out to the point we could draft Sanders or Ward, maybe, but we need defense no matter what and frankly we'll be in a good position for it this draft. Bryce has played us out of a different QB.

QB isn't our biggest need for once, but there's still a question mark on long term. We'll see how he does next year, hopefully with some competition in camp, ideally with an improved defense.

He's done well enough to put QB on back burner for the time being. He may prove to be the guy or might not but right now, he's earned his QB1 spot for the start of 2025.

And that will thankfully keep up out of the massive clusterfugg that will be the drafting of Sanders.

Yeah I am not buying this at all.  His play hasnt warranted not bringing in competition.   Thats where this thing went off the rails to start with.  We shouldnt be handing him the job.  If he wins it outright in TC then cool so be it but I would be floored if DC doesnt bring in someone to try and elevate his game.  I mean someone other then dalton.  I think his play at worst has him on the roster next year and us not trading him away which it was looking like a damn near certainty a couple of months ago.

Bingo. It was benching/competition that supposedly prompted his 'turnaround', so why remove that and go back to how it was in 2023? Makes no sense to not keep the heat on any player in this scenario.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
