Draft analyst still would take QB Luck over Newton

Luck has so much hype leading up to him, I mean holy crap....if this guy doesn't throw for 4000 yards and 25 tds next season he's going to be considered a bust.

Everything happens for a reason. Glad we got Cam. Would take Cam over Luck.

What's really funny is Peyton's comments came back to bite him in the ass.

I don't care if Luck is better than Newton. Don't even care if Luck turns out to be the best QB the league has seen in decades.

As long as Newton is good enough to help us win a Super Bowl, his ranking among active quarterbacks means nothing.

Like I've said before, you only worry about not getting a great QB if you don't already have one.

Happy to say, that's not our situation.

I still dont get the discussion. In the world of reality, proven assets, are always what youre looking for.

A 6'6 260 pound beast who can run sub 4.5 with a howitzer for an arm who has already PROVEN that he doesnt have character issues nor major flaws of any kind. This is why Mayock is a sensationalist like the rest of the jokes at ESPN and NOT a fuggin coach.

Ask the coaches and owners who theyd take and you might get a much more rational answer.

I dont have pure hate for Luck like you seem too. I understand his abilities and weaknesses. Luck will be good but great Im not sure of. Also I dont envy Lucks situation where more than likely he goes to Indy where there is a whole lot of expectations there.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
