QB??

Anybody that watched that game and puts the blame on the QB is blind or an idiot… or both… we have the worse OL possibly of all time. QB has to shoulder some of the blame, but dropped passes and TERRIBLE OL play is the #1, #2 and #3 problem. Do not draft a QB until we get it figured out up front.

We have to put our selves in unpredictable situations. It is pretty easy when it’s constantly 3-10 or more, the other team knows your passing and they know they can blitz because you don’t have a burner. That’s why it is critical to run the football effectively.

People act like drafting a QB 1st negates drafting any OL. Stop being stupid.

The whole OL vs QB debate gets very tiring. The honest debate is if you think one or the other in the 1st round is absolutely critical. However it becomes more of a hotly contested debate when we don’t have a 2nd or 3rd rounder lol

I don’t see Rhule drafting a qb if he’s around next year. He knows he’ll be starting out on the “hot seat” and can’t afford to put his faith in a rookie. 
 

The problem with fixing the o-line is do you trust a guy who wanted Erving and Elflein to be the one who fixes it?

trading down is the best option. Given what happened last year, seems very realistic.

Not really.  We didnt have any suitors other than the bears and their deal wasnt good enough and that was with Fields and Jones on the board.  Who the fug is giving up a kings ransom at 6 for Kenny fuging pickett?  So now we are just going to trade down for the sake of trading down?  Its illogical

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
