I've got to say, though, he didn't impress me vs. Georgia, frankly.

He is a QB with untapped potential. No guarantee he makes it all the way down to 51, let alone the 3rd round.

Not saying they absolutely should do that. But it's an option I'd be good with.

But picking him at 19 is too high. I'd rather risk waiting to the 2nd round then gambling at 19, if those were the only 2 options.

Agree 100%. He might not make it to the 2nd round, kid has potential and shows good fundamentals.

As I said, I don't see him as a first rounder and I believe that he'll be there for us in the third, if we want him. But my eye is certainly untrained. It really all depends on what our scouts, coaches, KS, and RR see in him. They've earned my trust and I'm good with whatever they decide. Personally, I'd rather have Jones, as he has impressed me quite a bit. I'd be happy with him at 19. If we pick at 25 and can get him there, even better! I'm not fixated on any one guy, however. As I said, I don't really have a whole lot of knowledge, and I trust in the guys that WFT have in place to make those decisions.

Yeah, I just like to think about different scenarios. I'm no expert either. I'd prefer Jones too. I think Lawrence, Fields, Wilson, Lance, and Jones will all be gone by 19. We will either need to trade up to get one of those guys, trade down a bit for the 2nd tier guys, or wait till lower rounds and hope one of the 2nd tier guys falls to us.

If any of the top 5 falls to us, it's a no brainer at 19 to swoop one of them up imo.

Out of the top 5 teams picking, Jets, Texans, Bengals, we could find a trade partner there and trade up to get either Wilson or Fields (preferably Wilson). If Wilson is available I would offer this for Wilson 2021 1st and 3rd and next year’s 1st , throw in Collins and if we have to part with either Payne, Matt I. Or Settle, then do it. This is for Wilson only.

I don't want to trade up. Find best player at the space and develop them.

I'm not a fan of trading into the top 5 for anyone, that just always costs too much and there are so many examples of that not working out in favor of the team making the jump. If the QB they love falls into bottom of the 1st round, then fine, maneuver as you must to get him. Not trading D-linemen, or multiple 1st rounders though.

Neither do I, but if you want the elusive franchise QB, Wilson is it.
