Darnold might be the next one out the door

I'd rather draft one in the 1st if the right guy is available than trade a boatload for a vet. Plus, Wilson has said there's only a handful of teams he'll play for and we aren't among them. Rodgers is phenomenal still, but I can't get onboard with trading a massive haul for a QB in his late 30s. I just don't see the right situation out there to trade for a vet. I have to think the Watson ship has sailed.

A quality starting QB on a rookie contract is the biggest cheat code in the NFL.

Sam Howell and Malil Willis both project well here. One went to UNC, the other went to fugging Liberty, that'd go over great in this town

Tepper does not think like folks here, thank god

"FIX THE LINE FIRST" is probably the most childish observation you can make about this team right now, I swear you're some toddlers

It's weird how some posters think it's utterly impossible to do both. We're gonna make a lot of moves this off-season. Moton and Christensen may prove to be the answers at OT. If we're lucky, Brown will prove to be the answer at RG. If everything goes to plan, we could only be needing a LG and. C. It's a lot easier to fill holes on the interior OL than at OT, though I will admit that our free agent choices this off-season leave me pretty concerned about our ability to evaluate FA OL.

Sam had a bad game behind one of the worst OL performances in the last 2 years and the first reaction is draft or trade for a new QB, not fix the OL. Or if we do fix the OL do it with late round picks and FAs because that has worked out so well for us in the past. 

This is baffling.

And he is calling us toddlers...hmmmmmmmm

It's literally game 5, Sam hasn't proven anything yet, everyone knows the offensive line needs work. Multiple things can be true all at once. You can't grasp that, nor do you like planning for contingency and assessing priority in regards to needs lol

You'd make a horrible GM, not sorry

Exactly, its game 5 and the obvious weak link has been the OL. If the OL could be fixed so easily in FA and late round draft picks, why do we still have this crap on the field?

It must be harder than you make it out to be.

Fitterer is a college scout.

Dan Morgan is a pro personnel guy.

I'm looking forward to seeing the two of them work together next off season.

(while also praying Morgan doesn't get a GM job just yet)

Like the fact they think in terms of spark score and say things like "we think he's a second round guard, third round tackle" proves they're not gonna be shy about going against the grain with regards to acquiring a QB and fixing the Offensive line. This fan base is just terrified to draft a QB bc they're not used to having good ones lol.

Because we've spent so many draft picks on defense the last two years? Again. Childish. Can't focus on multiple things at once.

    • 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. 
    • 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.
