Trade down is the best option period.

Trade out of #1, take Defense later in Round 1. Pick up a 2nd this year and a first next year.

NO QB in this draft is going to turn this franchise around in 2 years. So have two picks next year to use when the QB crop should be better to get a guy to develop for a year. If you do that Rivera will have had two drafts and two free agent offseasons (hopefully) to make the TEAM better for when the kid steps in.

We need a Veteran via trade or signing to hold the reigns for 2 years at the QB position in the mean time.

Trade down!

Even if the next QB draft is better, I have yet to have anybody explain to me how we can guarantee that we get one of them. Does anybody really believe that whoever has the #1 pick next year is going to trade down and pass up on Andrew Luck, assuming that Luck even has and equal or better season? And even if they did, they would want massive compensation for him, so that is pretty much out of the question, unless it's us at #1 again.

Agreed, many people think if we don't solve our QB issues that we will undoubtedly be the worst team again and will be in line for Luck next year. As much as it pains most people to hear it, even if Clausen starts all 16 games next year, i do not believe that we will be in the bottom 5 in the league. Hell, just the coaching regime change in itself is good for another 3-4 wins in my opinion.

this reminds me of the time my buddy tried to give me a 12 pack of "quality" beer.

I asked why he wanted to get rid of approx 20 bucks worth of beer for free. He finally admitted it tastes like ass.

"Hey NFL, anybody want the shittiest #1 pick in years, real cheap!"

hahaha

If Cinci, Arizona, or Buffalo really want Newton/Gabbert, we could definitely nab an additional 2nd or 3rd rounder along with still getting either Dareus, Peterson, or Green. That would be the type of trade that makes the most sense imo

Here we go again.... :willy_nilly: ..... the mindset of passing on a QB who will take two years to develop for an unknown QB we can draft next season who will be ready either at the same time or later than a QB we could draft today who can also end up being better than this mysterious unknown QB the Panthers are supposedly going to be able to definately get next year :shocked:

I have an idea..... lets keep passing on 1st round QB talent, for position players that can help us so every year we can continue to keep saying... we will use our top pick on a QB next season. :willy_nilly: That all being said I am fine passing on a QB this year if its not Cam... of course unless Hurney, Rivera, etc really think Gabbert is a better option. (I just dont see that)

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
