Well, I mean he has been the worst QB in the NFL in recent years...

Yeah I get it. I’m not thrilled about it, he is just nice insurance so we don’t get in some absurd bidding war. There is some potential there, and obviously a good amount of risk...

The sucky part is, IF this happens with SF (and I don't see how, logistically/cap-wise), that'd put GB at the #3 spot in the draft. GB has already invested a 1st on Jordan Love, so I doubt they go QB at #3, which means position player.

This *could* be bad news for the Panthers and their hope for Sewell/Slater/Horn

Side note: Rumor has it, Rodgers is complaining about the lack of WR help. It'd be funny if the Packers used the #3 pick on Chase...considering Rodgers is then gone.

I'm crossing my fingers, toes, arms, legs, eyes and nose hairs in hope.

I'd cross my ears, nostrils and butt cheeks if I could.

Can we do something about this post?  Can we start a thread called "Draft day Therapy?"

I’m still trying to figure out why so many huddlers are taking this person so seriously.

Why are you so special?

you must be one of those with “sources”

Couple of things here...

1) History: Verge has correctly predicted things in the past. That includes stuff that wasn't common knowledge or already out there in the Twitterverse.

2) Corroboration: That tweet from Jonathan Jones just a few pages back? Yeah, Verge had that info hours ago (actually days ago if you wanna get technical).

Is Verge always right? No, but show me someone who is. Even established insiders like Rapoport and Schefter wind up with wrong info because that's just the nature of the beast. Things happen that make teams change their minds. Sometimes nothing happens but a team changes their mind anyway. And of course, there's the steady flow of bullsh-t from teams trying to throw other teams off their trail.

Bottom Line: As with anyone who has or claims to have inside sources, it's an individual choice whether to trust them or not.

For others, do what you think best.

Me? I choose to trust Verge.

I also make a pretty mean lasagna.

I said THEY must be sold on Darnold to trade back. I think they are crazy to think Darnold is the answer so IMO they should draft a falling QB (not Mac) if they are there at 8 for security. If they only QB left by 8 is Mac then draft BPA. 

So your answer for taking another QB is they are crazy in your opinion if they think Darnold is the guy? I'm sure explaining that to Tepper or the press as a solid reason for taking another QB instead of a tackle or whatever would go over well. "Well you see, what happened was there was this guy on this message board that thinks we're nuts..."

Why not take Jones if he is there and they need security for Darnold? Jones is a highly rated QB in this class.
