i did a mock draft and Beck was available in round 4 which I took.  So maybe it's possible.

If he leads Miami to a national championship his stock will rise.

I don't see an NFL starter in Beck. 

He's an absolute dawg, but you're always waiting for the next mistake with him and his deep ball is mediocre.

well, Dan helped draft him.  Bryce is a Dan guy.  Evero was already here.  Canales in too deep at this point.  He is past the point now of getting  a shot with someone else.  Morgan concedes all the contracts now align. 

So yeah, I think Tepper has aligned it all.  They can sink or swim.  If they swim? Great.  But when they sink it's really setup for a clean sweep at this point.  Bryce goes, Dave goes, Evero goes, Morgan goes.   Tepper can claim he gave them a good 4-5 year try.  Which is fair. 

 

We're not in a position to sweep the room clear.

We've clearly improved as a team under Morgan / Canales / Evero. They're just hamstrung by Young's poor play and the Draft picks they lost acquiring him. 

If Tepper expects a quick turn around after the crater Fitterer left us in then he's a fool.

Daddy Tepper has clearly setup the game for all these folks to be shown the door together.   It all hinges on Bryce.   They all know it and have accepted it. 

These are difficult, costly roles for Tepper to fill given his reputation and so far Bryce has done the worst job of them all. I'm not buying that Mr. Analytics is hinging the whole front office on some gut feeling about Bryce's potential. Nonsensical narrative from a fanbase still mad he meddled with the pick.

Trubisky is available. Bills fans seem to think he will leave. Wouldn’t mind having him as a back up option. 

Looks like Drew Allan’s injury pushed him all the way down to rounds 5-7 which would be a hell of a bargain to develop.

Andy Dalton wearing a ball cap backwards better not be the younger qb brought in either.

Canales is clearly tied to Bryce at this point.  I think that's hard to deny.   I would say Morgan now is as well. 

I don't think Tepper is an anything guy.  He is a get me winning team guy.  And now he is simply stuck where he knows reasonable time is now PR for his future hires. 

and I think Tepper did what every single owner would do with Bryce.  I think the move to #1 was Tepper.    He listened to the people he hired to do the job and they sold him on Bryce.  So Bryce it was.  He listened to the GM office.

Mateer, Allar, etc.  There are several who are interesting.   I would look into these:

Most of those guys should be available in the 5th to UDFA range too. We have a chance to finally bring in a good #3 developmental guy or potentially a #2 upgrade.

Yeah, he isn't one of these top end talent/arm guys. He has middling talent and he's a bit of a headcase. 

That's squarely a 7th or later acquisition for him, IMO.

Trubisky would be a top 5 backup QB with potential for long term replacement stretches if Bryce gets benched. 

The issue will be price.

Also a big fan of Allar late in the draft. THAT is the kind of injury gamble you take. Not in the 2nd but on a 5th-7th rounder that was formerly a top 2 round prospect.

100% agree. The lazy Tepper takes are tired. Was he a monumental F up for years?  Yes,  of course.

He also wants to win at any cost. A lifetime commitment to Bryce Young does not exist. 

A team that wants to win at any cost rolls with Young and Dalton for 3 years?

As well as we scouted and drafted this season if we can scout similarly this season we can find our own Tyler Shough type in the 3-5 round. Someone who csb takeover after the 5th year option runs out 

I honestly don't think I can watch BY for 5 yrs...

I dont think he has the right attitude to make it in the NFL.   The NFL is tough and almost every time he has faced adversity,  including this year, he has looked bad.
