I just said in another thread.  If you draft him you go with him this season. Maybe not week one or two but by our bye week he should be under center.  We have Mike Sanders a good running back with great hands.  A CMC type of RB.  We have H. Hurst a good receiving TE.  A solid offensive line. DJ Chark a take the top off receiver and one of the best route runners in the NFL in Thielen.

From his interviews at the combine he showed great understanding of being a QB. Good QB IQ.

As Dan O said, to me, this indicates he can be brought along slowly and let the talent around him be the stars.  He doesn't have to carry the team.

Draft Him, Start Him

He's my darkhorse candidate.

I normally think Dan O sucks and I can’t stand to listen to him (he did say Kyle Allen was the future) but the only reason I give him a listen now, is because he was almost hired by Reich to coach on this team. Maybe he has some insider info, maybe when he was interviewed or talked to, he got an idea of what the team was looking for? Regardless, right when we traded up, he immediately thought it was for AR, he’s been hinting at this for some time. 
 

I still don’t think we will draft him, although I want us to, ultimately I am ok with all three…in case anyone wanted to know lol.

This kinda terrifies me. For a guy who was a former QB himself, it seems like Orlovsky is pretty much always wrong about QB prospects.

Has anyone actually talked to any Florida fans about him? I feel like it’s pretty telling that the mass majority of them think he was hot garbage. 
 

Are we really buying that he’s in consideration?

I saw a clip on youtube about him.  One game he was a Heisman trophy candidate the next they didn't want him to throw.

He needs work, no doubt but we definitely have the coaching staff to handle him and a good offensive group to help him.  He doesn't have to carry the team.

Dan can be hit or miss. Generally he is pretty good about pro QB rankings - but I do remember saying Sam Darnold was a better version of Joe Burrow a couple of years ago. 

But to his credit I think he was high on Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts too.

I could see it at pick 9. But #1 overall? He’s a much bigger gamble from what I’m seeing.

Counterpoint: they're Florida Gators fans.

    • Other than being the offseason and there isn't much to talk about, why does anyone worry about the cap? We can do whatever we want and still have cap space. You don't think the front office hasn't already figured it out and what they intend to do. Me I am just sitting back and watching. After all my job isn't on the line if we lose. Although at my age we don't have forever if I am going to live to see us play in another superbowl
    • I get the TD's and I pointed it out, but like I said, when Burrow had more than double the TD's than Geno had, I think Higgins increased TDs compared to DK was more a product of Burrow and the Bengals offense than because of him vs DK as WRs. When one of their QB's finished 4th in MVP voting despite missing the playoffs and the other was just traded for a late 3rd round pick and replaced by Sam Darnold, I think that's a tough narrative to brush aside to just look at raw stats as well. Again, swap DK and Higgins last year, do you honestly believe DK wouldn't have put up better stats than Higgins did? Contracts and trade compensation aside, I'm taking DK over Higgins 100 out of 100 times, there is no debate about it for me.
    • More TDs last year in less games (double the TDs) and more yards per game. Those are some tough stats to brush aside. Career stats are good but we are wanting the player for what they are currently. DK had some drop issues too.
