It Just hit me...

Recommended Posts

the entire time we have sucked I've been bracing for the event that andrew luck does not declare and we are forced to take someone else with our first pick, and it just hit me that we probably won't take a QB if that happens. I'm legitimately pissed about this. I don't want anything other than a QB with our first pick because all of ours suck horribly and i don't want to deal with another year of captain checkdown under center. I don't know what to do with myself if luck doesn't declare...

god help us...

Locker is just as good. We would probably have to trade down, which would be better because this way we pick up a first. Our FIRST pick better either be Locker or Luck, or I'm done with this team until JR dies..

I'm not on the locker bandwagon...

I'd rather have newton personally. him or mallett and i don't even want mallett or newton that badly...

fug it i'll take any of 'em over clausen

I would take Clausen over Mallet though. I've seen Mallet play, and......lord he is terrible. But like I said if we don't take a QB I will not support this team anymore until JR dies.

I'm actually going to respectfully disagree with you on this one.

I believe mallet will be better than jimmy. a whole lot better actually.

I see somewhat of an "it" factor in mallett that i never saw in clausen.

don't see the "it" in locker either. I've been wrong before though.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
