What Vet and Who goes...

Now that we've drafted our franchise QB of the future. What vet do we go after and what pick out of next years draft are we willing to give up? Personally, I'd like to see us sign McNabb and have him tutor Cam for a season or two. But this means that we'll have a vet, Cam and Clausen. So I guess we say bye bye to Moore and Pike or try to stash one of em on the practice squad.

Because in my opinion, the reason for his epic failure this year was lack of preparation. That's not the kind of person I want mentoring our young #1 overall. I honestly can't think of a better reason for finishing off last year so strong (for example, the sound thrashing he gave the Giants) and then playing so bad when he had a chance this year (for example, the sound thrashing he received from the Giants). He did play one good game against the 49ers, quite possibly the worst secondary in the NFL, but then turned around and played horrible against the Rams. It's possible I'm wrong, maybe it was just bad luck and never getting into a groove because of the injuries (doesn't explain NYG game) but that doesn't seem to be the most evident reason.

McNabb is who I prefer because he's went through what Cam has/will go through on an off the field and has shown he can be a good mentor even if it was in the short term with Mike Vick.

We don't run a west coast offense.

Which is why McNabb will not work out.

Honestly someone who DOESN'T happen to have Cams athletic abilities. Someone who has had to work hard because they DON'T have these abilities.

Reasoning is, if someone with a super high work ethic talent that same work ethic teaches a guy with super high talent to work hard... yeah.

    • I think we pick it up and then someone else ends up emerging as the QB next year and we end up cutting him in year 5 and eating it.  That would be the most on brand thing to happen.
    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
