Very true. If he can ball out at the Senior Bowl, it will be a different story.

That is easy to say but plenty of college QB's play behind porous OL's. They don't make those passes. And this is a dude that is HIGHLY likely to be playing behind a porous OL if he gets drafted top 15. Nah, I'm good. Don't hate the kid but he id a Day Two pick to me. I love him in the third but not above that.

Eh. I love Steve Smith(all time favorite Panther) but Megatron is deserving. That dude was just nuts. That said....pound for pound? I am taking Smitty.

Yeah but we are talking about the jump to the NFL. I have rarely seen college QB's make some of the bad decisions and passes that Willis did.

I can't do Willis before about the 3rd round. His bust factor is just too giant.

I am gonna be honest, from what I have seen of Willis, I expect his NFL career to be shorter than his rookie contract. His bust flags are just insane. Easily the most talented kid in this draft but he is a HUGE project.

Nah. Willis has a way better NFL skillset than PJ. Could also be a worse player.

Day Two guy.

Are we talking in a Rhule coached world? If so, keep Sam. At least we will have another top 5 pick to hand the next staff.

Malik Willis. Very high ceiling, INSANELY low floor.

I thot this is was about the #1 overall draft pick.

I wouldn't personally take any of them in the top 20.

1. Pickett 2. Corral 3. Howell 4. Strong 5. Ridder

People hate Rhulr because it is so obvious that he conned all of us. No one loves a scam artist.

Rebuilding is really never a word that should ever be said about an NFL franchise. The fact that they tore down the 2019 team the way they did and talked rebuild really shows how little everyone involved knew about NFL football. I said at the time I was very, very, very concerned about this "complete rebuild" because franchises that embark on such an undertaking often take years or decades to recover. Largely because it is a sign of ownership that has no idea what they are doing, IMO. Good franchises are always retooling and never rebuilding. You keep core players under contract, have plans to replace guys when they are near retirement and are constantly rotating players in and out of the roster every offseason based on resources available, needs and fit with the current team. You absolutely NEVER let your team get as talent deficient as we were in 2020 and you don't hire guys like Matt Rhule who are going to ruin culture and set the franchise back even further. You know, it's funny Matt Rhule harps on culture but historically great franchises have an actual culture in place that was built over years and can outlast coaching changes and player turnover(see Steelers. Packers, Pats, etc). Yet when when this guy steps foot in here, every veteran who knew anything about winning and success at the NFL level was unceremoniously jettisoned or retired. Then he brings a staff in that has very little NFL experience. And we wonder why this doesn't work. Matt Rhule and David Tepper are making(if they haven't already succeeded) us the old Browns, Bengals, Jets, etc. All the warning signs of a historically dysfunctional franchise are currently present. So, for the people that want to keep Rhule around.....good luck with that. Because you are just damning this franchise to a further and further slide into the cellar. It's one that we may not see them recover from for many years.

Rhule consistently rolling with guys like Erving and Elflein, despite their clearly poor play in their careers are why we struggle. We have a bad OL coach(was known when he wad hired) and a bad HC that probably fancies himself an OL expert because of his 15 minutes of OL coaching experience with the Giants. I said over and over last offseason that Teddy made the 2020 OL look far better than it was because he got rid of the ball so quickly. That isn't the case in 2021. Darnold has always held on to the ball too long trying to figure out what is going on in front of him and Cam has always tended to hold onto the ball too long trying to make a play. With a bad OL, that will get you drilled.....a LOT.

Almost all of those former successful coaches are not likely to be at all interested in us because of the poor ownership situation. I would much rather gamble on a coordinator than stick with Rhule. Sticking with Rhule means another 1-2 years being added to an eventual rebuild.

So Harbaugh, Tomlin or stick with Rhule??? Well the first two are highly unlikely so.....you just want to continue being a dumpster fire?

Draft. Beating a shitty Saints team when you are eliminated from the playoffs is pointless.

This is the mentality that has us with the current OL that we have. This is the Matt Rhule mentality.

Yeah, Payton is not an idiot. He will steer clear of Darnold.

I had that discussion with a buddy a few days ago. I think Luke jumping ship was a sign we mostly ignored.

1000% in. This further shows the joke Rhule is and also gets the most important goal accomplished.....
