2022 QB options

Its hard to say what will happen. I really wonder how Rhule and Fit consider the current players they have on the Roster. I'm sure they want someone else to compete with Sam at QB. How much say will Macadoo have in choosing what happens. You'd think he is going to institute a completely new offense (differnt blocking schemes..everything). Is the plan to try to fit it to Darnold....or is it to build an offense and then find a guy he wants to run it. Is that guy already in the League somewhere. I seen people in the Media say he was hired to fix Sam but I hope he was brought in the take control of the offense and bring in players who can run it.

I respectfully disagree.  He isn’t close to Lamar Jackson who is on another level as a runner.  I am extremely hesitant with guys that did it against bad comp and struggle mightily against decent defenses.

Not buying the hype.  There are much better options.  All these QBs are a reach at 6 but Willis would be a bad bet for a ton of reasons

If I am picking one of these guys I am looking for a passer.  Howell, Corral and Willis won’t survive running in the league for long.

The Senior Bowl will be interesting for Willis particularly

Combine as well.  Will be interesting to see actual measurements for Howell and Corral and others.  Willis will have a great opportunity to show the athleticism there as well

Rodgers is an idiot. If you have Rodgers you aren't rebuilding. Tampa was rebuilding then they got Brady and the rebuild was over. 

They added Brady....AND AB ,Gronk ,Fournett plus the 2 #1 receivers they already had. So it wasn't just adding Brady and thr rebuild was over

What I want is to run it back and take it on the chin for one more season while building the O line.

What tepper wants is Watson and asses in the seats.

Rhule probably wants is Pickett. 

Fits probably wants to separate himself from the decision because I think next season is going to be rough no matter which way we go.

If we’re getting a new QB I would prefer to draft one. However, I think Rhule should be forced to stick with Darnold and get himself out of the mess he created. I don’t care if it’s a make it or break it year. He got himself in this poo so he should get himself out and not leverage this team’s future.

Nah, Rhule is going to 'Hurney' this thing up right as Tepper shows him the door next season.  We'll have stupid contracts, hardly any cap space and no better off than this year.

Willis at 6 would be a disaster. 

I wouldn’t want him at 6 either. I wouldn’t want any of these rookie QBs at 6. If we traded back and took Linderbaum you’d use the extra pick to take Willis if he was still around.

basically this.  GM should draft OL talent.  Make Rhule ride or die with Sam.   And Sam can ride or die with Rhule's overpaid Robby Anderson.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • 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.
