No team is carrying 10 starting quality Olinemen.. 

I would feel much better if our center we just acquired wasn't already banged up. I remember people getting defensive like this last year when I said Paradis was probably soon to be washed and I got shouted down by folks who didn't want to hear it so this is more of the same.

Huh? The math doesn't even add up to us having to keep all three with our current roster. What the fug are you even talking about?

I am referring to the talent pool we would be picking from in the event we were looking for depth other than those three guys. We're not on the same page and you're clearly very aggravated so no worries.

Hate it for the kid.

Matt Corral deserved better than Matt Rhule.

I'm not aggravated, you're just not making any sense. The math just doesn't add up to us having to keep all three of the guys you mentioned and realistically the only one that I think we keep is Elf. If they do decide to keep either Daley or Erving, it'll be one or the other but not both, and I don't think they keep either, there's no reason to unless you think they're going to keep like 11 lineman and that's just nonsense.

I think they will be forced to draft one as I doubt Baker is going to play well enough to warrant a long term contract.  Sam will be gone after this season and there's no way PJ deserves a spot on the team anywhere, even to PS.

So you are left with a middling Baker and Carroll coming off IR who is still an unknown 3rd round pick. I would not gamble my career on that qb room. I would take another shot at one and let him compete with Matt and may the best qb win.

I don't know what to expect from Mayfield, but even if he shines and is resigned, having only Corral with him, who as you said is coming off IR and an unknown commodity, means a QB is going to have to come from somewhere.  If Mayfield works out, maybe not in the first round, but if he doesn't or is only serviceable, I would think they have little choice but to pull the trigger early next draft.

And Reality for Sgt.. This injury doesn't change a thing.. All of Rhule's Hope's depends on Baker or Sam anyway.. Ppl talk themselves into Corral Being Russell Wilson and can't come of that drug...

I'm not in that camp with Corral, we have no idea who he is.  Russell Wilson is a tall order.  I agree with you on Rhule. 

The problem is they only have on QB under contract next year, which gets back to my above response to Jon Snow (who I also agree with).  The injury to Corral does change the fact that he is even more of an unknown commodity next year, having no real exposure AND coming off a serious injury.  It could be the only QB we have under contract is physically compromised.

wont matter Baker is the Franchise QB

At this point this entire fan base should be investing into baker’s success. If baker fails, the franchise fails.

I bet everybody would love  if life was like madden and you can turn. Off injuries.. But you can't and every team in the league has to deal with it..

Since some of you don't realize how truly stupid you sound, I'll be ashamed for you.

Honestly it's the best case scenario 

I'm at a loss trying to understand the consternation here. 

I certainty don't want to see Corral hurt, but this is probably the best thing for the team this year.

PJ will be traded or probably just cut (although I think he will be on the PS if no one picks him up)' we roll with Sam and Baker, and Matt gets a redshirt season.

Best part is hopefully we only keep 2 QBs and have that valuable roster spot for another group. 

I'm still excited about Corral long term.

But this is Baker's team in terms of QB. If he doesn't perform, there's no one else going to save this team

It will as to who is behind him.  If Mayfield is the guy, having a backup in place for a few years solidifies things.  That backup is not named Sam Darnold or PJ Walker after this year, unless we like basically throwing in the towel when Mayfield is not available.

It’s not like we would have the worse qb situation in the nfl. Baker at 1 and Sam at 2, isn’t a horrible position to be in.

Upgrade compared to the last two years.

Yeah, honestly if it wasn't for the cap hit I'd be perfectly fine with Darnold being QB2 for a decent stretch.
