Our third is likely to be a top 5-10 in the 2023 draft. Why trade that? Why? For Corral? Is he better than Howell? Is he better than Strong? Is he better enough to be a starting QB in the NFL? If the answer to a single one of those questions is no, then it is a dumb trade. 

Just fuging wait or trade a goddamn 4th for another 4th. Don't let go of 1st-3rd round draft picks. That is the meat of the draft.

You seem wound up.

Who would he want us to take? I assume Willis. 

Smitty seems to be on the 'see what Darnold is with a better line' kick. End well, that will not.

Really? Rhule looked pretty stoked to me, I think this has been a good draft considering what we have.

That doesn’t really make any sense. If anyone knew the answer to any of your questions they’d be the highest paid GM in NFL history. Also we won’t be picking top 10 next year

Matt Rhule doesn’t look happy.  Maybe he is just tired but there does seem to be something.  Also, he said all the best QBs in the NFL are old.  Over the age of 35.  That it’s an older players position WTF? 

Rodgers and Brady were among the best before 35.  They just happen to still be playing lol.

It’s a future 3rd rounder for a young QB with potential. We come out if this draft addressing two of our biggest needs with really only our first and what might as well be a fifth round pick and all we did is lose next year’s 3rd over it. That’s minimal damage all things considered. At worse we have a backup with potential on a cheap 3rd round contract. At best we have our new QB. Very low risk high reward pick. Even if it’s a high 3rd next year, those picks are far from sure things. Who was ours last year? Marshall and BC? Marshall might have been a 2nd…

Rhule, attempting to set expectations that Corral is unlikely to unseat Darnold as the starter: "This is the only position in professional sports where the best players are over the age of 35"

He only mentions Rogers and Brady.

I'm not sure how old Stafford or Russ is, but he doesn't mention Mahomes, Herbert, Burrow, Allen, Lamar, Kyler, Dak...

He should really not talk to media anymore, probably not players either

I dont understand this "Rhule develop the QB" notion. The QB coach and OC develop the quarterback. Thats what they get paid to do. Sean McDermott didnt develop Josh Allen, Ken Dorsey did. BB didnt develop Macjones/Jimmy G ... Mcdaniels did.  

He was saying Rhule has full roster control and is on the hot seat. If fans start booing when Darnold starts struggling, Rhule may try to force Corral in the lineup too early. McAdoo even said it’s ultimately up to Rhule when asked if Sam was his starter.

Brady, Rodgers, Brees were all tops in the league in theirs 20s too.   Same for Wilson who isn’t over 35.  That’s was just a weird narrative that QBs somehow don’t get good until retirement age.  

Also doesn’t mention Watson who they just tried to trade the farm for.  

I don’t think Rhule wanted to draft a QB.

Just watched the edited game against Tennessee (the 30 rush game). It was not a great showing for him, but among some bad throws, a lot of drops from his receivers, and struggles against the blitz in the 2H, his tools and mentality are apparent. He’s not afraid of anybody on the field. He takes hit after hit in that game and does whatever he can to extend the play without taking sacks. And his release is as quick as advertised. 
 

My goodness that Ole Miss offense is annoying to watch, but it’s probably not a bad idea for McAdoo to work some RPO into the offense on occasion as it will help Ickey ease into NFL pass pro, as well. 
 

Highly recommend watching a non-highlight video of Corral without commentary to form your own opinion.
