Then when he starts for us next year and plays with a major chip on his shoulder, you will love him again. I will bump this back to the top so we can all see who the bandwaggoners are.

I'm not a huge Jake fan by any stretch, but I don't think it would make sense to release him b/c our options are very limited at this point. Moore and McCown are unproven, the FA market for QB is very slim, and odds of getting a potential starter in the draft are not good for us without a 1st rounder and the lack of talent at QB coming out in 2009. We would be foolish not plan for a future starter in 2010 IMO.

dont get me wrong, Jake let me down in a major way. He played the worst game of his career in a game we were pumped up to dominate. I live in missouri so I had about 25 people texting me mouthing. Then I would ask how the chiefs played this year and they would not text back. But, Jake is still an average QB capable of leading us to the SB. We are not a passing team, so dont need an elite QB. If we changed now, it would take a year or two just to get the chemistry back on the team.

No Way. Moore is not the answer, McCown is a joke, we don't have a first rnd pick, and there is no FA QBs available that would fit here. Warner not coming to a running team and probley to late in his career to even be considerd. Collins no place in Charlotte and anyone else is a bum. Jake will be our starter next season, but we do need him to renegotiate his deal.

    • Did we take over a thread about who you'd take #1 by having a debate on who you'd take #1? Basically you still don't want to answer my question, probably because your answer would be either T-Mac like myself, or Hunter, which taking a CB #1 overall is even crazier on the surface than what you're saying I'm stupid for in wanting a WR there. As I've said before, it's a season without a traditional clear top pick(s).  It would be great if we could trade back if we got #1, but if not, there's nothing wrong with taking a truly elite WR and build out our roster correctly for once instead of always trying to find the quick fix and it backfiring. 
    • I just thought of an interesting comparison for what I'm arguing with taking T-Mac and how to build up to hopefully being a contender. The mid 2000's Arizona Cardinals In 2003 they took Anquan Boldin early in the 2nd, kinda a decent comp for Legette with style of play and being more of an elite #2 than a true outside #1 (they also took a WR in the 1st too who didn't pan out). In 2004 they took Larry Fitzgerald #3 overall, the true outside #1. Their QB's at the time, Jeff Blake and Josh McCown The QB they passed on to take Fizgerald, Philip Rivers. They were in the Super Bowl a few years later after they found their QB in Warner to slot into an already built out roster of elite weapons. Cam, you asked how it would look if we passed on a QB who pans out for a WR, well, do you think the Cardinals regret taking Fitz over Rivers?  I highly doubt it. Our roster is more than one offseason away from contending.  I'm not looking for the quick fix because there isn't one with the state of this franchise at the moment, I'm looking to contend for a decade. I don't think a QB in this draft class is good enough to take 1st overall with everything else we still need.  My next preference would be an elite pass rusher, but again, I don't see one of them in this draft either. My personal bias aside, I very honestly think T-Mac is the most can't miss offensive prospect in this draft (Hunter would be that on defense).  He is the WR we've been trying to get since we lost Smitty.   Brooks, T-Mac, Legette, Coker/FA, Sanders would have the potential to be one of the best offensive weapon sets in the NFL.  Sure, hopefully we could hit on a superstar QB in the next draft, but even if not, if those guys pan out, with them all are in their prime together, we wouldn't need a Mahomes or Allen to contend, we'd only need to find our Jared Goff. and spend all our FA money the next couple offseason on Defense.
    • Competent QBs can read defenses presnap, see where their best matchups are and already know where they're going with the ball. Then have good footwork with fast fundamentally sound dropbacks. See the field well and decisive with their decisions on where to go with the ball. And an NFL caliber arm, get the ball out quickly and deliver it with velocity. Bryce can do none of these things.
