I want a Cam at QB but I'd settle for someone that isn't statistically in the bottom third of everything.

Edit: alright id not really settle until we had an elite player at that position haha

Yeah we all want to have the best. You are honest about it. 
Cam had his faults but man did he have the tools covered. 
 

I would happily settle for a guy in the Jake mold for a few seasons. He had NFL level tools. Not top level but we weren’t super constrained by his limitations and he made his teammates better and they also made him better. We had a fighting chance with him. 
 

Matching his will to win would be harder than matching his tools. But we don’t have to have the best for things to potentially be a lot better. IMO anyway.

I think a player like Jake at least allows you to build a team around him without it feeling like you are ignoring the best position on the field entirely. And he had a couple of years in the top third of the league IMO and many others where you knew he was a threat and no stage was too big.

We just desperately need new blood in the QB room.

He will be 36 next year with 2 years on his deal.  26 is manageable but in 2027 it jumps to 40 million per.  I dont see how that is anywhere close to a solution.

There's speculation he'll be on his way out in LV, which could enable a restructuring of contract. But I don't actually want Geno at all.

I am not sure why he would take less than he is owed just to get out though and again it doesnt solve any problem at all other then getting off of bryce.   I am not sure who the answer is but I know its not him at 36 years old.

Wait till Cam Ward gets some help. His flashes are special

The Raiders will cut Geno this offseason. Signing Geno to start would be like signing Bridgewater a few years ago

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
