Has Derrick Brown played in this scheme before?

He was close with Jake Delhomme as I recall.

No because you lose your only consistent pass rusher. You can't take a step back on defense if you're bringing in a young QB.

I think the whole accumulation of draft picks is overrated as proven that the New England model faltered once Tom Brady left. Without a franchise QB, you have no chance at legitimately competing for a SuperBowl, you do everything you can to get that right, within reason. IF the staff have conviction of a QB in the draft, you do what it takes to get him. If there's no conviction, then stay put. Once you have your QB, then you can go back to the norm and save your picks to build the roster.

Sorry the idea of playing with Brisett and Minshew and waiting another year for a QB is truly nauseating.

It's not just about sacks, realistically Burns should have had even more sacks but he's been really good at pressuring the QB regardless. This roster is a QB away from going to the playoffs. You have to take advantage of a window when it presents itself, instead of trying to worry about future draft picks. Thee players and the coaching staff won't be around forever.

I have no problem with it. You need to pay your draft picks, at premium positions, who have lived up to the billing which he has. Pass rushers aren't easy to come by

I'm getting there, but will need to hold off until we get our QB

They should hire Steve Smith to be an assistant WR coach and watch them fight it out.

I would rather trade away picks than proven pass rushers who are yet to reach their prime.

Other than Joe Brady lol we all thought we struck gold. Rhule era was embarrassing

If Brown does well he will be a head coach within 2-3 years

Falcons trade for Julio Jones Chiefs trade for Mahomes Ravens trade up for Lamar

Chitown trade was only bad because they picked the wrong guy. They could have had Mahomes. You have to assume there's a conviction about the guy you want to draft and if you can't trust Fitt and Frank to do that, then the whole draft is pointless.

Interesting results, too close to call

Even if it made sense for the Panthers, I don't think Carr chose to be a free agent to sign a 2 year bridge QB deal. He will have other suiters for a bigger deal.

I hope you're wrong. I'd rather roll with Darnold as a bridge QB then give a multiyear deal to Carr which will likely include a lot of guaranteed $$$.

Lazy answer - what do you prefer?

I would like to gauge where we stand as a fanbase on this topic. A lot of people seem to be warming up to idea of signing another free agent instead of drafting a potential franchise QB. What say you?

I’m tired of retreads, time to start fresh

NGL I want CJ Stroud
