We are comfortable drafting a couple QBs at 6

Yeah I also wonder if we could trade for Baker while also adding a pick this year.  For example:

CAR gets - Baker, 2022 3rd rounder

CLE gets - 2023 3rd rounder, 4th rounder 

No way they'd get that much back for a guy on his 5th year option that they may have to cut, maybe a 2023 conditional 5th if he's the starter.

It would essentially be a 4th in my scenario.  We’d just be swapping 3rds from year to year

I found it interesting that Fitt said he notified Sam that we would be adding to the QB room this week.  Then he went on to say veteran options wouldn’t be looked at until after the draft.  
 

So he is basically saying that we are adding a QB at some point in the draft.  Of course that doesn’t mean in the first few rounds…could always be someone like Zappe, Strong or Purdy in the 4th.

Sometimes you get frozen out and the trade back just isn't there.

Probably easier to trade up. They could get themselves a late first early second if they pony up and a good/great QB may be there.

It's just a matter of picking that one guy out of the presumed top 6-7 QBs that is going to have a good/great NFL career. 

There may not be a clear #1 for a lot of reasons but there is value in this draft at QB.

Just watched the interview and he clearly said he was comfortable with “a guy there”…Then checked up and said “a few guys there”

The fact he said "comfortable" and not we really like a few QB at 6 is telling...

Example..

If you asked your girlfriend "what about marriage"  and she said "I'm comfortable marrying you".. Does that feel like she excited about marrying you??

Jobs are on the line and it’s a quarterback driven game. Until you have that quarterback you aren’t going anywhere. We don’t have that quarterback. So I’m not surprised to hear that we are considering a quarterback at six even though the value isn’t there.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
