Banking your hopes on a couch FA that has a cup of tea NFL career to date as an almost 31 year old QB is certainly something. Especially when you consider that he has spent literally zero time in our offense so far.

I think that White might be solid competition and possibly be better than Hendon Hooker, which is certainly a very low bar to clear. 

That's probably about where the level is for White. He's a potential upgrade to our PS QB.

For real. Where is Brian St. Pierre when you need him? He is probably still looking for his arm that fell off after one game with Foxy.

If things go south for us in the 2nd half of the season I wouldn't mind seeing Hooker.  Dude has a big arm and is somewhat mobile.  Maybe under Canales he has learned something.

I just don't think Dalton is going to get us anywhere.  We need to run the ball against Buffalo and keep the Bills offense off the field.

Right now we have four teams in front of us likely to take a qb (Jets, Dolphins, Browns, Raiders) and about three (Mendoza IU, Moore UO, Simpson Bama) good looking prospects. I guess we could take one from the second tier (Sellers USC, Beck UM, Nussmeir LSU) with our second pick.  White does nothing for our long term need at the position.

I would disagree about how many "good" QB's are in this draft. Not really one I would say that is worth investing draft capital on a QB in the first three rounds. 

We will see closer to the draft.

Mayfield was #1 overall and brought the Browns to the playoffs.

This is glossed over so easily.  He took the Browns to the playoffs.  Is it any wonder that once he got to a competent organization he’s playing at an MVP level?

You are talking about a tanking scenario. That's not really what I would think we would want to end the year on with the morale actually being pretty good for the first time in a while, so it seems.

Hooker will definitely assure that no more close games or wins happen.

Yes. Morgan and Canales are too far in to tank. They have to show progression. And to finish 5-12 or 6-11 after starting 4-3 will almost certainly get them fired. Hooker gives you very little chance to win.

IDK if they will get fired but it would be a bad look. I do think Tepper will give DC until mid-next year to get results acceptable to him, whatever the fug that might be.

Remember him from a few seasons ago, lively arm and mobile.

No qb has been successful with the Jets so you can't hold that against him. 

And it’s possible no QB will ever be successful here lol

You can't just throw a first round pick at a QB because you need a QB.

Depends how they get to that 6-11 record.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
