  1. It depends on the players. Would you trade extra first and second round picks to jump up and take Phillip Rivers when you could sit back and still take Roethlesburger at 10? Sometimes the difference in talent warrants keeping the picks.
  2. Getting the top pick and gutting a team and relying on the top pick to step in and lead you to glory are two different things. The Leafs for example (my team) signed veterans to establish Babcocks new structure so when the influx of kids came there was something already established to plug them into.
  3. The cheap "tier 2" would have been top 10 picks last year (Allen at least for sure). It's not like we are talking mid round guys here.
  4. Fantastic post, agree with everything you said.
  5. Either way, Darnold, Jackson and Rosen will likely be out of reach and teams are going to bend over backwards to move up for them. The economical move would be to hover for the tier 2 class that we can pick without spending a ton of draft capital.
  6. Yeah, I put Jackson up there with Rosen but realistically Rosen and Jackson go 1-2 and then you likely need a top 5 pick for Darnold. Then you start getting into the the 10-15 range where we will likely be. I don't think we are going to blow all our picks for a QB when we have so many holes in a draft class that you can still get a solid QB prospect with the picks we will have
  7. I think we are going to like Rosen, Darnold, Allen and Thorson as 1st round talents and in that order.
  8. When you build a team to lose, it's hard to instantly turn it around quickly (Tanking for McDavid).
  9. The point is, if the end result is special then you wait. Just because fans are impatient and feel we "don't have time" doesn't make it true.
  10. Plus each issue is different. "I don't want to play in a crappy NFL city with a joke franchise" and getting publicly angry over players not performing to a high enough level is far different from. "I went to get my AK-47 to threaten someone who disrespected me" or abusing others.
  11. Therefore, every QB with character issues = Hall of Fame when we draft them....
  12. Every team has time to develop a QB if the end result is something special, patience is another story though. I personally would wait 2-3 years if the end result was Dan Marino.
  13. It would be one of the few times we go after the right player at the right spot. He can probably be had in the 20-40 range depending on combine and workouts.
  14. One of his biggest criticisms is he tries to put the offense on himself and force plays to make up for a weaker team.
  15. It's harder to judge since he's a smaller program QB. His completion% and YA have improved every year. Still, he has 1st round tools and you can get possibly a top 5 QB talent late because of the unknown from a small program.
  16. Possibly, I'm thinking he will be ranked high enough that he might declare and we could take him at the end of the first. The tools are just as good as any QB of the draft.
  17. Clayton Thorson is going to be our guy. Franchise QB tools, pocket passer with choir boy character.
  18. Rushing yards and TD definitely counts, TD/INT ratios is a watered down stat to try to show that a QB who doesn't really throw many TD's is somehow great because he doesn't throw interceptions. Is Eric Wood a good QB? last I checked he has played over 10 years without throwing an interception which is better than Tyrod.
  19. RB, Recievers and QB are typically judged on how many yards and touchdowns they are responsible for, so yeah.
  20. I find it strange that Tyrod is such a special QB that his greatness is the only one I have seen without the two most important stats a QB is typically judged by. Yards and TD's thrown.
  21. See, McDermott knows that he shouldn't hitch his career as a HC on Tyrod Taylor like Rex.
  22. Same thing with people all in favour of benching Smith for Mahomes.
  23. I can't wait to see the defense when we add more speed at LB, size in the middle and more DB depth.
  24. Thorson at the end of the first or early second for me.
