Re: Taylor Effing Heinicke
 

QB is obviously a super high priority but the spray and pray approach isn't ideal. Target a guy you think can be the guy here for the next 10 years and go get him, whether it's the draft or trade or whatever. This idea of loading up on QB's and letting them "compete" doesn't usually work out very well. Practice time is limited as it is. You need to focus in on someone.

Agree spray and pray isn't the way. But I think it's got to be a case of when the 2022 draft rolls around (besides prying AR away from GB I can't see any vet that's likely available/willing that's worth pursuing in FA or trade), we need to decide if QB is #1 priority over all else. If so, then trade down to where we can safely pick up the best QB available and stock up picks as much as we can for 2023. Else, go BPA with EVERY pick, and if that happens to be a QB so be it. Anything but reach for a QB again like DH.

Yeah I say take Matt Corral in the top 7 or 10 whatever we will be and develop him the right way.

Re: Taylor Effing Heinicke
 

I would target the best Veteran QB I can get my hands on for ST's system via free agency as soon as the clock turns to 4pm EST on March 16th, then draft the best QB I can get my hands on for ST's system. Overpay for both if you have to...

Seems like interest in Trubisky is legit; Washington just didn't pull the trigger this year before the deadline

Why would they? MT isn't going to turn things around any more than TH can this year, and losing a pick to bring him in when we're already 2-5 makes no sense. As an FA and assuming we'd get rid of Allen, TH or both into the bargain (and also assuming Fitz is gone/retired), it makes sense because you'll need at least one vet to support any rookie we go after.

Trubisky is trash. If he's the week 1 starter next year I'm out.

What if he's week 1 starter but a Rookie right behind him? Also lets understand that Ryan Tannehill was deemed to be a bum too until he left Miami.. Maybe mitch isn't as bad as Matt Nagy is. He's gotta be better than TH

He's hot trash. Don't want him under any circumstances.

This.

Re: Taylor Effing Heinicke
 

I actually like Trubisky. He's far from the trash we have right now...

I think Chicago gave up on him too early. There's a reason he was considered a favorite, and one of the safest QB picks coming out of college. The knock on him was always inexperience, and then the fact that he wasn't Deshaun Watson or Patrick Mahomes coming out of the gate. I wouldn't mind at all if they brought him in, and also looked to the draft for a QB.

Fact is, neither Wilson, Watson, Ryan, or Rodgers are coming here. Trubisky will be at the top of the free agent QB class.

Re: Taylor Effing Heinicke
 

If we think TH has accuracy issues, just wait for Mitch. Oy.

I would be fine with this approach. However, if Trubisky is the starter and Heinicke or Allen is the backup then I would be disappointed.

Taylor Heinicke is no Mitchell Trubisky (and vice versa)

Accuracy was one of MT's strengths coming out of college.

That chart covers nine total starts. I definitely wouldn't base my overall evaluation of him on a chart some dude put together that spans nine starts.
