Where was Big Ben drafted? Where was Russel Wilson drafted? Where was Drew Brees drafted? Where was Aaron Rodgers drafted? Where was Lamar Jackson drafted? Where was Josh Allen drafted? Where was Pat Mahomes drafted? Where was Tom Brady drafted? 
 

Should I keep going? 

Allen was drafted 7th so we are one spot out, just like we were with Herbert.

Drew Brees did not become a HoF'er on the team that drafted him.

Lamar Jackson is a RB.

I guess we have a shot at the other types but QB has a premium price on it now.

Depending what it would cost, I'd be all for trading for Darnold and drafting a LT at 8.

But I'm not sure I'd give up even our second rounder this year, maybe 3rd this year or 2nd next year and add in like a future pick in the 5-7 round range, I'd do that.

Darnold had terrible coaches and no supporting cast, give him CMC, DJ, Robby, and a good staff, he could be very successful.

This years 3rd next years 3rd or 4th should do it..

That RB has thrown 62 TDs in the last 2 years

I edited all of them with their draft spots. Half weren’t even in the 1st round. Out of those that were, almost all were picked 10th or later. The idea we have to sell the farm to get a franchise QB is just wrong. Not only that, it would be foolish to do so. History backs me up on this. Stop panicking. We have another year or two to get the franchise guy. Go ahead and get his LT this year. We will be sitting on an elite LT prospect at pick 8. That’s fine. What’s the rush?

Will we though?

Sewell will be gone more than likely, how elite is a LT prospect with 33 inch arms?

Slater may be great but who knows.

Compared to what we have had at LT since Gross left? Miles better. 

My point is that you don’t have to sell the farm to get a QB and we don’t have to get a QB now. Suppose we trade 3 firsts for Wilson. Then what? We won’t have the opportunity to draft an elite prospect at LT in the first round for the next two years AND if Wilson doesn’t pan out, we set ourselves back another 5 years by having to recoup what we lost and still find another QB. All for a kid who played against minimal competition at BYU.

We just need to be patient. Stop trying to force the QB situation and just build a talented roster right now. That’s how rebuilds work.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I mean.....his guy has to be someone willing to come so Geno Smith is out. If you mean RUSSELL Wilson, that is laughable. Fields and ZACH Wilson are just basically the beginning of the end. These aren't likely to be Geno Smith turnarounds. Fields is further proving that he just isn't much more than a gimmick player. Zach Wilson still probably needs a year or two under some better circumstances before I would consider him a candidate for being a turnaround. He is just jumping straight back into the NY Jets fire here.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.

      they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now.
