Would You Trade Down and Pick Up Tebow? Pair him with McDaniels ?


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

If any of you saw the The Golden Calf of Bristol documentary for 'Year of the QB' the other night, they actually had us listed on the agent's board as one of the teams that were interested in him on draft day. Me and Dpantherman briefly discussed it while it was on and I think most of us knew that the team was interested but we had no 1st rounder (thanks Everette Brown).

Anyway, I don't know how many of you saw Peter King's tweet/reports today that John Elway doesn't think The Golden Calf of Bristol is a "very good NFL QB" and depending where McDaniels ended up that team may trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Two questions:

1) One which I've been contemplating for awhile... Would you bring in McDaniels as an offensive coordinator/QBs coach? I think he would be awesome for us in that role, just as he was in NE. I think it may have been too early for him as a HC in regards to the personality management aspect (Brandon Marshall, Jay Cutler, etc.)

2) Regardless of what happens with McDaniels, would you trade back in the draft for The Golden Calf of Bristol with the Broncos? I know they're only one position behind us, but I could see how they would be interested in a guy like Bowers at #1 and possibly Gabbert if they're stretching, who knows? But, if we could trade them the #1 pick or dangle it out there that we'd be trading with a team behind them and that team may look to take the player they have targeted as I think our #1 pick isn't as valuable as others have in past.

I think if we could trade back that spot and get The Golden Calf of Bristol and pick up their 2nd, it would put us in a better position at the QB position because I think The Golden Calf of Bristol will be a good NFL QB and a winner, and it would still allow us to pretty much take who we want in the 1st and get a 2nd in the process.

I know The Golden Calf of Bristol is pretty polarizing guy, although I think that's a bias based off of personal beliefs, but purely football-wise, what do you think?

EDIT: Don't feel like checking for errors, but may be some because I'm watching TV as I was typing, lol.

I would. At some point this offseason, we're going to have to take a risk on bringing in a QB.

Whether that's reaching for a rookie, or making a crazy deal, we're going to have to target a guy, and take a chance on him. We've got no choice.

The Golden Calf of Bristol showed promise last year, I'd take him.

Though it's crazy to think Denver would trade him to move up one spot for nobody..

Just no. So if Elway thinks The Golden Calf of Bristol sucks, why should we pick him up?

Just because Elway was a HOF QB himself in his playing days, doesn't mean he's a great evaluator of talent either. I bet Elway thought his son was better than The Golden Calf of Bristol... Look how that worked out.

I honestly hated Elways overbite ass until like the last 2 years of his career. I was a baby when he came out, but from how he handled himself, it's clear he's been a prima donna from day one, so I don't really care what he thinks.

If you saw those last two games he started/played, I saw an NFL QB, and a pretty good one. At worst he'd be a throw in player who'd be an automatic upgrade over Jimmy.

IF we picked up McDaniels as OC, I wouldn't object to that trade for The Golden Calf of Bristol. McDaniels had him playing pretty good at the end of the year, so I think he could turn him in to at least a good NFL quarterback. We would have our QB of the future, plus we could draft just about anyone with the 2nd pick.

Remember, Matt Moore had a GREAT record at the end of two seasons' garbage time. Doesn't mean he'll be a good franchise QB

Good point, but I still think Matt Moore can be a productive NFL QB with better coaching/surrounding circumstances.

That being said, I also think The Golden Calf of Bristol has better tools naturally. His delivery improved as well, and I expect him to get better.

    • I was checking out Chris Brazzell II measureables, and I thought they looked suspiciously familiar. Turns out it was true, almost identical measureables to former Panthers DJ Chark circa 2023. I even checked Terrace Marshall Jr results, and honestly isn't that far behind them.   I know this isn't unique for just our team, but we seem to specifically have an obsession with trying to make this tall lanky speedsters work for us. I admittedly wasn't that high on Brazzell, and when I watched the tape I didn't really see that 4.3 speed, and a strong wind seems to tackle him.   I really liked most of the draft, including getting Hecht in the 5th when I graded him as a #1 Center in this draft. I'm rooting for the guy to work out, especially since our HC and OC made their bones as Wide Receiver coaches. But Brazzell is the only one I'm kinda meh on. I was hoping we'd trade up to get Big Citrus, or if we went WR I liked Ted Hurst much better. We'll see though. 3rd rounders seem to be coin-flips for us (see DJ Johnson/Matt Corral). But I'm rooting for the guy and for this experiment to finally pay off.   I haven't seen anyone else post something about this, so just thought it was interesting and passing it along.   #keeppounding   -------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview   Chris Brazzell II and D.J. Chark both possess nearly identical elite deep-threat profiles, highlighted by their tall, lanky builds and blazing sub-4.40 speed. Chark was slightly faster, while Brazzell offers a marginally heavier frame and longer wingspan. [1, 2, 3, 4] The side-by-side physical and athletic testing results from their respective NFL Scouting Combines outline their comparable profiles: [1] Metric [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] D.J. Chark (2018) Chris Brazzell II (2026) Height 6'3" 6'4" Weight 199 lbs 198 lbs Wingspan 78.5" 80.1" 40-Yard Dash 4.34 seconds 4.37 seconds 10-Yard Split ~1.50s (est.) 1.52 seconds Vertical Jump 40.0" 40.0" (pre-draft) Hand Size 9.25" 9.0" Analytical Comparison Size & Build: Both receivers offer an excellent catch radius with lanky, outside-threat frames. Brazzell holds a slight edge in height and an even more significant advantage in wingspan, giving him a massive target radius. Speed Profile: Chark famously recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time at his combine, while Brazzell was a standout at his event. Both times are elite for their size, translating directly to the "field-stretching" and vertical playmaking abilities that define their games. Draft Status: Chark was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second round (61st overall) of the 2018 Draft. Brazzell was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the third round (83rd overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft.
    • I still reserve my right to bitch about how incompetent the Panthers are at running a football organization and point to the mountains of evidence in support.
