Damn that's cold

 

If he wasn't so entitled I would be more interested but his attitude seems like it needs work. I bet Mcvay gives him a looksie

I'm not sure Richardson is the kind of project McVay is eager to take on.

Yeah, not sure I see that either. McVay's offense I a lot. If you have a guy already struggling with the mental aspects of playing QB in the NFL not sure I see that as a good fit.

Honestly, the Eagles should consider him as a backup. It's hard to find a QB that can emulate how they use Hurts and Richardson might be a good fit for that. As is, if Hurts go down they'd basically have to run their offense completely differently. That's not ideal.

He could be a really good fit in our system. Depending on the cost, I would be very interested 

I am not endorsing or rejecting.. just commenting. NYG GM Schoen and Morgan are like, vacation buds. Did the Burns trade already. 
If we had interest it should be do-able. One year rental? Could be cheap. But it would need to be. Maybe a player could go back to them. More than that? Like trade for and extend him? I don’t know enough about him to really say about that. What LG just said sheds some light. 
 

In a general sense, we have done well with our late rounders but the reason for that may apply less going forward. Tillis referenced this as well in his combine interview the other day.

When you have holes everywhere it is easy to fill them with a draft pick, but once you have gotten things to a certain level that changes. At that point maybe a late round pick doesn’t upgrade your team like it did n previous seasons. 

Hence the low picks become less impactful for us, there is less utility. Which could play into them being more willing to use them in a trade.

In a perfect world he’d play out his contract and if he looks great you can tag or extend him. But I wouldn’t offer more than a third. And I wouldn’t extend up front

Well you are officially renting him in those circumstances. So I don’t care who he is, I wouldn’t want to give up a 3rd. 
 

I for sure was thinking much cheaper. Got to pay him 15 mil. And then he can be a FA. I guess you could tag him. That would be costly.

The idea of a one year rental doesn’t bother me though, it could buy time and still allow us to draft an edge this year, then in ‘27 we’d have Scourton and Princely going into their third season and the newer draftee his second. They might be ready to step up. 
 

I just would want him cheap.

I'd wait on Richardson until next year. His contract is up and I don't see Indy picking up the option.

I'd welcome him in a QB2/Taysom role. 

Short yardage situations, halftime hail mary's and goalline sets. Also, if Young goes down, AR is about what I'd expect from a QB2 thrust into the lineup for a few games. Some good ones, some stinkers.

I look at the QB situations in Miami and Arizona--and do not see bryce rising above that.

If Simpson is there in the first--do you pull the trigger?

As much as I dislike Bryce, no. Too many needs elsewhere and it looks like this dumb team is going to ride Bryce for another year. I've been saying I would like to take a QB in a mid-round, but now I'm thinking maybe a 6 or 7th rounder plus a free agent is the right approach, then go big next year.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
