Well, one is a rookie, one is a tier 2 QB that is trending towards tier 3 with their current OC. The other two are elite.

One is the rookie we thought we'd get...he'll be great...like we had with Cam.... but Qbs matter mightily... you have to surround them with talent tho. Its still a team sport.

IMO, there are really only about 2-4 elite qb's in the NFL right now.  Mahomes, Burrow, Allen, and maybe Jackson.  And a few others that could become elite.  Getting an elite qb is one of the hardest things to do in the NFL.    

And only one of those elite QBs actually has a ring. One might get a chance soon, but it's also possible they'll end their careers without ever getting the top prize. Fans and media get so obsessed about QBs to where it's as though having an elite guy is your only way in. It helps, certainly, but I think it's more having the QB who can actually play good enough in the playoffs. Even for some elite guys, they crumble under this pressure.

Ummm...

Terry McLaurin, Zach Ertz, Bryan Robinson, Ekeler, Dyami Brown and Jamison Crowder.

LOLOLOLOLOL

Mclaurin is his best wr no doubt 82 rec 12 tds good year for sure and would be comparable to Theilen for a  qb

Ertz - eh, pretty basic for a te a 13 year vet that has gone over 1000 once.  Meh

Brown - gtfo 30 catches this year

crowder - 9 whole catches.  Holy poo he moves the needle

Robinson/eckler - 55 catches between the 2 - come on man

 

daniels has put this team on his back and won despite having one legit weapon

They've gotten some solid production out of Olamide Zaccheaus and Noah Brown as well, but yea McLaurin, Ertz, and Ekeler alone are proven NFL playmakers. All three of those guys are savvy vets that are great security blankets for a rookie QB.

I'm interested to see if Jayden can continue making plays with his legs after leading the team in rushing this season because that's going to be a tough wrinkle for opposing DCs to deal with.

Its sad that you even had to break this down, I love how people just throw out names without even checking the stats.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
    • If BY continues to develop.  XL learns how to catch with his speed. Tet lives up to his hype... THEN Brooks comes back.. dammmmmmmmmmmmmm
