I mean Sams got everything but the brain. His 2018 comments were pretty much the same as today, has occasional magic to his game but has some fundamental issues that no one's ever really bothered to work on. Either way McAdoo is struck me as way smarter than Rhule and much better with his choice of words.

McAdoo says Sam has some magic in flashes he wants to get more consistent. No comment on Baker, not his first media rodeo. He's obviously a lot smarter than Rhule

Yes Joe is asking him about Sam..

Just that horrible WFNZ interview where he still claimed Slater isn't a Left tackle...

I might prefer a Panthers reality TV show over watching the actual games at this point. "Football Nightmares"

I agree, hopefully we learned our lesson from the Sam trade, probably could have gotten him for just a 3rd or 4th if we'd waiting til after the draft. Or maybe we even had just kept Teddy/drafted Fields if the FO were patient in an obvious rebuild year.

Woah I didn't realize Minshew went 2 rounds after Grier. Thanks Hurney

Sounds like the perfect guy for our head coach who has the same delusional mindset

Paywall, who were his redraft picks?

If they were to do a straight Darnold/Mayfield trade I think it'd have us including at least a 4th rounder or average player to give them some incentive to fill out the paperwork if they're gonna cut whichever QB anyway. Jacoby is getting his $4.5M and knows he'll get to start the first handful of games so I doubt they want any extra drama going into OTA's/training Camp with one of these 2018 busts hangin around

They already picked up Jacoby Brissett as their backup, Don't see how it would be to their advantage if they'd just cut the new bust for the same $19M cap hit. It's tricky because usually these kinda guys would do a restructure and trade deal like how we got rid of Teddy, but not sure these guys on guaranteed 5th year options are willing to work with the teams that are kinda screwing the whole situations up for everyone. If I were Baker or Sam I'd say F U cut me and give me my money and I'll figure it out myself.

Pickett bailing from clean pockets/3 man rush, throwing softballs into the zone that NFL secondaries will feast on, I just don't see his game translating against legit pro competition.

If it's his only starting opportunity maybe. If he could back up Tom Brady for a year/fill in during injuries it'd potentially be more beneficial to himself in the long run. Aside from those two options who would want him? Texans? Cards if Murray holds out?

I mean a couple teams might add him in like a Buffalo/Trubisky role but even then his attitude might not be worth it. Maybe the Bucs would take him if he's cut and let Brady keep him in line, if he's willing to take on that responsibility.

And another lol

Just glancing at next years numbers we could clear like $17M cutting/trading Robby and Elflein next year. We may only end up using like $8M of what we have now for the draft if we don't trade for a QB, so carry that $22M over. That's like $44M without any additional restructures or anything. It's interest free to do all the restructuring/bonus crap so as long as you don't blow the extra money you just borrowed on lets say one year of Jimmy G, there's no harm done.

Right I'd rather not be $26M and another draft pick short in 2023 when we're back to square one, and picking in the mid teens in that scenario.

Then he's a free agent and he'll go somewhere else, another $26M for another one year rental and we're delaying the inevitable yet another year.

Exactly my issue. We are the only team willing to trade anything for him and take on $26M for another one year rental, only because if he hits FA he's not willingly coming into this mess. If we were confident we could get him on a decent deal we'd just wait for him to get cut like anyone else slightly interested is doing.

49er's can straight up cut Jimmy G and only be on the hook for $1.4M. They're in no rush, can just wait it out til week one if they wanted to before cutting him, though I think they're gonna try to not disrespect him if possible.

We kinda screwed ourselves into taking a shitty trade back so it's possible. Doing mock drafts without trading back for at least a 2nd is really a bummer. I'd trade back a few spots for a 2nd/3rd and trade back again for another 3rd or whatever instead of dropping that far back on the first move.

Not really, but I think he was referring to the fact it's not a good place for a rookie QB to go if the coach is gone in a year or two anyway, then you get a new coach who maybe wants a different qb etc..It is the worst situation for a rookie QB currently.
