I honestly wouldn't place any big bets on us getting either one.

Gotta come out of this off-season with one of the two or one of the "big four" rookies or it's a fail. If we move on Mac Jones then I don't think we learned poo from the Teddy fail. I think Mac Jones is probably a Teddy-ish type QB at the NFL level.

A 2022 1st? It would allow us to likely grab Rashawn Slater LT at 8.

It's a decent price.  Not the most dream inducing route but would put us in a competitive spot and we wouldn't have to give up any young players.  If the gamble doesn't pull through then we're drafting a QB in 2023.  The window if he's legit is probably until 2024/2025

You have to look at what other teams would give when you are trying to figure out what it would take you to trade for him.

There are teams later in the 1st round that would happily give up a first.  For a good team, just needing a QB such as Indy, what helps you more? using your first on Stafford or Trask or Jones

So if Indy or the Pats would trade their 1st what would we have to trade to move ahead of that?  Our first?  that would probably work but honestly that might be too much, so you offer next years first.  Why would they take next years first over a current years first from another team?  That is why you have to throw in the second this year.

I'm not saying we should give up that much, but it makes sense that it would take that much when you look at it logically.

 

 

Yeah, I was just having a similar conversation with a friend about the Harden deal in the NBA.  That deal sucked for the Rockets.  Sure, they got oodles of first round picks, but they got them from a team that expects to compete for a championship every year, so you're talking about mid 20s to high 30s first rounders.  Those picks are completely different than a team in the bottom third of the league every year.  So, yeah, it changes the game a bit if a team like NE or Indy make that offer.  But, then again, unless Rodgers moves on from GB, outside of the teams we've mentioned here, most of those teams in the late first have QBs, so they won't be making too much noise in this market for Stafford or Watson, but we'll see.

Matt Rhule tried to recruit Mac Jones to Baylor.

Whether that means anything now? Unknown. If he looks good at the Senior Bowl though...

Fans have a bad habit of lumping all 1st round picks together when talking about trades.

Our #8 is a different category than Indy's 21 or Patriot's 15.

Likewise our #8 is nowhere as valuable as the #2 of the Jets or #3 of the Dolphins when talking about trading for Watson.

I'd offer 2 2nds or next years 1st, just to see if they'd bite. Get Stafford, draft Slater, and keep our young players? So much win.

It means we didn't learn poo from the Teddy mistake. You don't waste your time with severely physically limited QBs.

lol

You seem to follow college a good bit.  

I'm not a fan of later round QBs, but what about Newman?  Isn't he going to be at the senior bowl?  If for some reason the first round QBs don't work out for us, any redeeming qualities?

He is. I think he's the most intriguing QB prospect at the Senior Bowl. 

I don't want to come down on Jones too hard. He's very smart. He's very accurate. He could definitely help himself in the Senior Bowl environment where he's removed from his dominant roster helping him. But, he's very limited physically. His arm is average. His mobility is non-existent. I mean, those things are true of Tom Brady too, but there's a very, very long list of disappointing NFL QBs who fit that criteria and only one Tom Brady.

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By Icege · Posted

      Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.

      Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on.

      Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
