[quote=skinsfan69;1288162]The rookie Qb's look good cause no one is game planning, vanilla defenses, basic coverages, some are playing against 2nd and 3rd stringers. Reality will set in week one. Like all rookies they're going to have their lumps.[/quote]

You're right, and the pre-season rookie QB hype is, as always, ridiculous.
You can see Zach Wilson's progress in mechanics, throws and confidence though. Difference in a week is an encouraging sign for his future.

Sure he's gotten off to a good start with some encouraging signs.

But he hasn't been tested yet. Preseason is not a good indicator of success.

Caleb Brantley (who exempt himself fmor 2020) is unsigned. not even sure he got a camp invite anywhere.

Thaddeus Moss, may make the Bengals as 3rd string TE, got that LSU connection with Burrow.

Sua Cravens - finished his degree w USC, part of their pre and post game radio. Seems happy with his life choices, has a baby girl.

Truthfully DSnyder building something like that would only lead to more derision. It should for JJ to, he built that, how many playoff wins has it got them in the past 20 years?

Washington has lagged way behind in terms of facilities ever since Snyder took over. Dallas is definitely over the top, but we haven't even been close to the middle of the pack. Makes you wonder when you hear the "Snyder just wants to win" baloney.

Seriously. We don't need to build anything like that - but I know we've all heard how far behind our facility and amenities are compared to other teams. Dan can rehab that shit all he wants - he needs to build a new practice facility.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason
 

Redskin Park is almost 30 years old. I remember when it was built right after the SB in 91.
Crazy how much that entire area has been built up.

Jags just traded Minshew to the Eagles. So they have Hurts, Flacco, Minshew, and Mullens. Not scary.

If you roll all of them into 1, you would have a decent QB. Separated, that's a nothing burger group.

On a personal level, I like Hurts. If he played for any team outside of our division, I'd like for him to succeed.

Definitely, Because you simply don’t bring this extra stress to his starting job if it wasn’t serious. This is kinda ideal for Minshew to be honest, it’s bad news either way, healthy or not, for Hurts.

Deep Ellum is crazy cool.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason
 

Thought Dallas would be the ones getting Minshew. Dak goes down they are toast. Not that the Eagles are all set at qb.
I think it was smart for Jacksonville to trade him and not have Trevor be worried about getting yanked. Same deal with Hurts.
Personally I think Hurts is awful and Minshew will be starting in no time but if you want Hurts to be the guy going forward putting a starting caliber quarterback over his shoulder is counter productive though.

Re: Around the NFL: NFL Offseason
 

Siriani probably wants a high octane passing attack with their shiny new receivers but has come to the same conclusion as everyone else, Hurts isn't suited to that kind of offence. They paid virtually nothing for Minshew, especially when you consider how much we gave up for Kyle Allen, so they have multiple options and, given the lack of good backups in tge league, if a starting quarterback goes down injured before the trade deadline they can flip one of them for a high pick. As much as I hate the eagles you have to admire the way Howie continues to turn FA QBs into high draft picks

That was my initial thought, but I actually don't think that is the case. I think they just found an opportunity to upgrade the 3rd string QB. Minshew has been available for a while now, and Mullens has showed nothing this preseason that would make them feel comfortable about the 3rd QB position.

Minshaw was competing for the starter spot in Jax and had shown competence in it. Although maybe Philly trades Flacco and some picks for Watson, then Minshaw makes a lot of sense.

I think if you can add a quality 3rd QB, especially with COVID still looming, it's the right thing to do. After all, you want to upgrade every position if you have the opportunity, and the 3rd QB is no less important.

I think so too. In fact, if Davis doesn't play up to "stud status" the hindsight cries for jumping up and grabbing Jones will be pretty high I think.
