I'm just happy to not see a thread today asking us to trade for Deebo since the 49ers said they're looking to trade him after he asked to be.

He can be a useful player on the right team with the right coaching staff, but his contract is just too big for what he is as an actual WR, where he's average at best, in 6 years he's only had over 892 yards once

WOW, Rappaport just said the Cowboys have had internal discussions about trading Parsons.

Part of me says there is no way I'd ever consider trading for him as it would just cost us too much in draft capital and cap room, but man, him alone could change the prospects of this defense for the next 5+ years in an instant.

Parsons + Brown = good luck opposing OL's

Walker is a Parsons clone

Best I can do is Jadaveon Clowney and Ian Thomas.

If this were remotely true, he'd be widely viewed as the unanimous #1 pick in this draft.

The fact that that's just not the case, tells me this is an incorrect statement.

The fact that he falls into the 2nd round in some mocks, tells me this is a widely absurd statement.  I can't get on board with a player that polarizing at #8, just can't do it.

They would be out of their fuging minds to take a QB at 7 if Sanders and Ward are gone.

I hope it happens.

A lot of analysts said the same about the Broncos drafting Bo Nix at 12. Most considered him to be a reach. They got a lot of Cs and Ds on their draft grades. Yet, he had a productive rookie season and made the play offs.

Back in 2017, there were some analysts calling it a “weak” QB class lacking “elite” talent. Who came out that year? Patrick Mahomes. Most said he had a lot of potential, but only if he overcame bad habits and the shortcomings of playing in an air-raid offense in college. What’s his stat line before 30? About to makE his fifth Super Bowl appearance and goes into it with a 3-1 record.

So I’m always hesitant these days to write off QBs before they step onto an NFL field.

Sure, however this is also widely viewed as one of the worst QB classes in recent memory. The drop off in grades from Ward/Sanders to the field could genuinely and potentially be the 3rd round.

I think the veteran QBs will find a home.  I have no knowledge of who is projected to go where--just guesses.

here goes my prediction, so you will know who is NOT going where:

1. Raiders:  Darnold  (needs a good OL--Raiders have it)

2. Titans:  (Ward, draft)

3.  Jets:  Cousins

4.  Giants:  Wilson

5.  Browns:  Sanders (draft)

6.  Indianapolis:  Daniel Jones

7.  Steelers:  Rodgers

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.

      This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like.

      If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
