Re: Wft quarterback of the future

I can only see the draft as the option to upgrade QB. Haskins isn't it; Sunday pretty much confirmed that. He might improve with a lot of coaching and mentoring, but that's not the NFL. Maybe he gets lucky and goes to a team with an incumbent vet that can use him as a project, but that's not WFT.
But I'm concerned that if we do win the division and pick around 19th, we don't reach or make a bad trade.

I don't get to see much CFB over here, so I can pretty much only go by YouTube. I'm inclined to trust Kyle Smith but he hasn't drafted a QB yet, and I don't count Haskins as his choice. I'm not convinced about Fields but he's probably gone top 5 so not our problem. If Wilson is there at our pick then I would take him, but he might benefit from time behind/mentored by Smith. Lance worries me with his accuracy issues. Seems a poor man's Jackson to me. Trask intrigues me, the only downside seems to be his athleticism; does he have enough mobility for the modern NFL? I'd take a chance on him and work around his running ability if he's there at our spot and rated up there, but I wouldn't reach for him. I commented on Mac Jones earlier, and he looks raw to me with a poor arm.

Let's see where we finish the season and therefore pick. Seems the more successful we are this season the worse off we are after it! 🤨🤪

Speaking strictly in terms of draft position, perhaps. However, I wouldn't say the team is worse off for winning. That's what we're building here, right - a winning culture?

I'd much rather pick 32nd every year than in the top 15.

True, hence the emojis. 😁

But I'd rather pick 32 with a franchise QB already in place than still looking for one. 😊

Wow. I can't imagine what games you have seen to come away with this take on Mac Jones.
