This draft will be thick with good #2 QB's to gamble on. Drew Allar, Nussemeier, etc. 

This is genuinely a good draft to take a shot at a good #2. 

We will not, however.

Because they would be better than the #1 they keep propping up and will absolutely make the mistake of taking his 5th. Can't have some nobody showing up the guy they want to make the face of the franchise just because they will probably be better NFL players...

Yeah, it will be viewed as a hedge and when Bryce continues to struggle it will create a tough spot in the media and stadium for him.

They will go out and get another geriatric QB. Hopefully this one can actually finish a game or 2 before their body quits on them.

Dalton is under contract for 2026. I would prepare yourself for business as usual in that QB room.

Man that would make Bryce look even worse if they are so afraid of other QBs that they have to keep the guy who couldn't finish a quarter of play before getting hurt or even running a sneak with. 

I don't doubt it but I'm never going to stop making fun of it

They need to cut Andy, sign a vet that still has an arm and draft someone.    This shouldn't be this difficult 

This is the ideal situation even if Bryce sticks around. At least an attempt at an overall QB room upgrade.

I don't think it's fear, I think from coaching staff to owner they are genuinely true believers.

I agree they are believers and always were but if they didn't fear then they wouldn't have resigned Dalton. If they didn't know how beatable he is and how easily he could be put into a corner by someone else then they would have easily made that mistake already. They know and are just hedging their bet which would be fear as motivation.

I think they view Dalton as a trusted mentor at this point. 

It's all about building an environment arouns Bryce.

Bryce is better than Tim.  But the defense/argument for, is the same argument.  

Tim actually stronger at the intangible strengths.  Bryce stronger at the weaknesses.  Neither had the tools to produce the amount of offense needed in today’s NFL

I'd honestly take The Golden Calf of Bristol over Young. You know you can design an O around his skillset to win you games.

Plus, as a bonus, said O would wear him down within 3 years so you could move on from him.

Not just Dalton.   But the only real young arm they would let be seen the past 2 years was a really a bad Jack Plummer.  Who was super weak even for that tier 

Can’t convince me how weak they made the atmosphere around Young hasn’t been intentional.

For a 3rd year QB? That flies with the Teppers and makes the HC and GM look like fools. 

Their fear is evident. Their careers are tied to making it work, it's ehy they signed on here and they are professionals who knows what kind of a situation they could potentially have on their hands if they are not calculating about popping up Bryce. I call BS to that sir. It's why every QB after Bryce couldn't make any other rosters past a PS spot...at best

I think it's a lot of yes men and group think.

I guess we will see in the offseason.   But if this brain trust runs it back in 26 with the same qb room then they deserve everything that's coming to them

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
