I heard somewhere that the NFL draft is viewed more than the MLB, NBA, and NHL championship games COMBINED.
Not sure if it is true, though.
-
Useless guess based on nothing.
-
I hope he does and we are there to take him.

See: JP Losman.
The evidence is overwhelming. I mean, you have one data point. No point in arguing with you. Nice job.

I don't recall this. I recall him being Montana's imminent replacement and not dividing the locker room while he waited. I never heard of him wanting to quit football.
From his own mouth. Watch A Football Life and some of the other stuff on him.

That would be a downer.

Of course Steve Young wanted to play and yes - most backups feel they should be starters. However, Steve Young - and most other backups - handled it with professionalism and eventually got their chances. Flutie didn't handle it like that. Not even close.
Steve Young complained about it all the time and thought about quitting all the time. He was as frustrated and vocal a backup as there ever was.

Good QBs don't have to manipulate others in order to play. Good QBs don't make excuses like, "people expect more from me because I'm black." Good QBs play well and earn starting jobs ... and they keep them.
I never said he was good. I said he wanted to play, like everyone else in the league.
There are plenty of stories of backup QB's who are disgruntled and want to play. Steve Young, for one.
-
I don't think that's true at all.
-
Flutie wasn't a franchise QB, but he did win a lot of games for the Bills.
And I don't understand everyone who says he was a jerk. He wanted to play. Everyone in the NFL is like that. They want to play and they do everything they can to play. Good for him if he was able to manipulate people to get himself on the field. Better than being a nice guy and holding a clip board for your whole career.

I like it when McDermott says it. Everyone else is ruining it.

I am 100% Rosen but would be also very happy with Darnold or Mayfield.
Same here.

I'd be happy with that. I like Rosen the most, but getting Mayfield by only trading up to 10 is a awesome. We get to keep most of our draft collateral.

Means nothing, top QB'S make about $400,000 per season. Not sure why any QB with any talent would go there
They don't. They go there when they can't get an NFL job.

I'll give him for as long as he is the starter. Have to hope for the best going into each season.
-
Option C - Nobody would give a 1st round pick for McCoy. He's a 30 year old running back.
-
Looks like trading up to draft Watkins was a bust.
But I did like it at the time.

OK, makes sense to me. I think we're all agreed that it will be a subpar line in 2018, even if some late fixes (and coaching) make it a little better than it is on paper right now.
Yep. Probably. I do think we'll be able to win games, though.
We won a a decent amount of games the past few years despite having no passing game to speak of, so difficiencies can be masked. That's what good coaches do. Belechick is a master at covering up his team's difficiencies.

I guess you can try therapy.
Don't listen to it. Problems fixed.

Let's just say that tomorrow we find out that 2 veteran/highly-paid starting O linemen on some other team - any other team - go down for the season with torn ACLs. Wouldn't we assume that that team's O line just got a whole lot worse? That's essentially what happened here, and the starting point was "mediocre at best."
Absolutely. But that doesn't make them the worst in the league. To do that you have to actually know all of the starting linemen in the league and how they play together. There are probably some people out there that know that, but anyone else is just guessing.
So, in response to the OP, no, it is not a rhetorical question. Probably nobody here knows for sure.
And it's April. We still have the draft. We still have a long off-season to go.
I will agree that our offensive line is not looking good, but I assume Beane and McDermott will be doing what they can to make it better and bring in more competition. Or, we'll have a subpar offensive line for a year until we can continue to address it next off season.
-
Thank goodness. Reminds me of last year. We'll probably make the playoffs again.
-
Sounds like a big guess. Do you know the state of all other 31 offensive lines?

Nah. There will be LOTS of Pats fans, who will load up on secondary market tickets from willing Bills fans. I wouldn't go to this one if I had a free ticket.
Pretty foolish take.

Decent player who wasn't yet back to 100% when McBeane parted ways with him. Just not a McD preference at the position. He wants guys that can move and cover. Never one of Ragland's strengths. He showed some glimpses last year and I wish the kid well.
Yep. McDermott wants his version of Kuechly.

You'll stick to the guys who don't even know what a football looks like?
