"Look at what your biggest need, do they fit that need, and do they fit the team need?"

Also, when Marty and Ron both talk about draft prospects, they always mention Patrick Peterson and Marcel Dareus specifically. Never Cam. Makes me think they are holding Cam under the radar, but who knows.

I'm excited about Ron as the new coach.

They could be the same thing but Riveria mentioned postional need several times which would be QB given most other needs are easier addressed in FA.Having said that he is not going to tip his hat.I do not think a final decision has been reached.He protected Clausen as he should but my feeling is Jimmy is not his guy.

In a nut shell I think everyone agrees QB is our biggest positional need but do we want to bet our jobs(Riveria and Hurney) that Newton or Gabbert have the intangibles it takes to develope and take us to the promise land.That is a tough decision when all the physcial attributes are there.If we do not have the warm and fuzzy with either qb then what?Darius,PP,or Green? This is the scenerio.

Hurney also stated how QB is our biggest need this offseason as well I think they're on the same page.

no matter how they say it, the choices are obvious...

offense = cam newton

defense = marcell dareus

there were times where the player drafted was NEVER discussed or considered.

I think you are wishing if you think that Gabbert is still not in the mix at

QB. Not saying that he is. But to assume that Cam is the only one is naive.

    • I know that. I'm not predicting it. Just putting the information out there so I will have receipts for later on when this dude turns into a stud at this level too.  It's kinda bittersweet, he'd help our offense out a great deal, but I'm wanting a QB next draft, so adding another weapon for Bryce is counterproductive in that regard.
    • I'm not sure if NO will be as QB aggressive as some assume.  They may focus on landing a top line prospect and slow rolling the rebuild for next year.  Could see them roll the dice in R3-4 to compete with Rattler, maybe a Howard fit.     I think the QB starved team's just take the gamble the Saints don't want Sanders, and target a mid to late 1st pick for a trade up to land him.  Still don't think Milroe or Shough are going R1.   But I think what may get lost in the trade up talk is about it being QB specific. A top team trying to get over the top could be the juicy trade (or two) that happens in round 1. Something I've flirted with is how aggressive Buffalo could be.  They have the ammunition for a big trade up, and I think Golden would pair super well with Coleman.  They need to cut to the chase and get playmakers there for Allen.  So yeah, love the idea of a BUF/ATL trade where they move up for him.  I'm even thinking about LAR getting aggressive for Warren or Loveland.  Imagine McVay rolling into 2026 with that added piece for a future QB...      
    • Unfortunately, Ice, there are some blueprints of hybrid LB/edge players who were busts too--Everette Brown is one, but he was forced into a 4-3 DE role here.  I would say that the 3-4 defense has a lot of wiggle room for hybrids at the OLB/Edge position--I am just not seeing Walker as an elite player at any one role.  Coverage?  Rushing the passer from the 9?  And at his size... If we take him, I hope that I am wrong because there are some personalities I really would love to be on this roster.  Jihaad Campell is one.  Bech is another.
