Time to face the facts, guys

We are not getting a franchise quarterback this year.

There are none available in the draft, in free agency, or via realistic trade. None :nonod:

Next year? Maybe. This year? No. The best thing we can do this year is find a reasonable stopgap. For me, that's Volek via free agency. I have no interest in reaching in the draft, taking a shot at a guy we hope might be a franchise guy (already did that last year) or giving up the kind of significant value it'd take to trade for a guy that could fit that role.

This is one problem for which there just isn't any solution available this season, so we are just going to have to be patient.

(yes, I know ahat I'm asking) :sosp:

:lol:, asking the Huddle to be patient...

I don't know why, but I have this weird feeling that Carolina takes a QB with that first pick....

Who should they take.... Got me.... there really isn't a player in this draft worthy of a #1 selection, its kinda meh....

Myself, I don't like any of the FA options that are supposed to be available. Not really sold on anyone in the draft, but I'll wait and see how the players do at the combine and so forth.

It's actually looking like Clausen might be the best bet for next season. @_@

Whoever it is, they need to make an impact.

I would go with Moore Clausen and Pike then. Dont need a VET FA, we have Moore, who has already stated that he wants to stay here. QB Coach and OC are going to be very important hires. Lets see what they come up with.

A veteran presence is typically someone who can pass on good habits to the younger players.

Will Moore be passing on good habits?

:toetap05:

We're going to go out and get a veteran this offseason, but it's like I've been saying, there just isn't "that guy" to go out and get this year.

This is why I've been on the Green bandwagon.

Because if you can't get a great QB, you've got to put what you can around him to make him better.

At this point I'd rather us just stack the defense. Rivera is a defensive guy so why not stick to what you're good at? Even if we did draft a franchise QB our offense is still going to be mediocre at best. This D is a few pieces away from being elite. Make it so.

Mr. Scot, my man, you wouldn't be hinting that Clausen will be our franchise QB in 2012, are you...in your old Scottie type of way? Or, perhaps you're saying that Clausen sucks...I'm just messin' with you:D.

    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
    • Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
