    Final QB Poll before the draft.

    This is an updated poll eliminating Howell and Fields from the previous one. Let's see where we stand as a group since the choices are more crystalized.

    Washington Future QB Vote

    Daniels by almost every measure is an elite passer AND an elite rusher, if Maye is better than that by all means take him! Care to take a shot at my friend's challenge? Outside of the physical differences, what does Maye bring that Howell who is also as experienced as he is in the Air raid...

    Washington Future QB Vote

    You won't get an answer to that question because outside of his comparable size to Herbert and perhaps Josh Allen, all other comparisons end. I've read those responses about college stats, and the use of "can" renders responses like them meaningless, as it applies to almost any venture in...

    Washington Future QB Vote

    If the team that gets him handles him properly and he's completely amenable to changing some very familiar habits, they could end up with another Carson Palmer. Failing those things he's Mitch Tribusky. A friend of mine asked me this question earlier today and I'm passing it along to you guys...

    Washington Future QB Vote

    Somewhere in the darkest recesses of my mind, I've feared this, and as the days go by drawing closer to the draft Maye would be my choice, if I was driven by fear, lack of imagination, and bent on taking the safer pick. By any metric of their choosing Drake Maye only becomes the top pick if...

    Washington Future QB Vote

    Make no mistake, I would love it if they somehow kept Howell, built up his trade value while the rookie became acclimated to the pro-game, but reality bites and we aren't often found working in ideal conditions, so, considering my previous post, that seems the more probable move.

    The Chicago situation has its own energy in that they have to get it right this time! That team factually hasn't had a legitimate, stabilizing, long term QB since Sid Luckman! They Missed on Tribusky, trading Fields also means that they missed on him and failing with Williams while Fields...

    So if they trade Fields and selects Williams, there wouldn't be a coup de grâce for them if Fields flourished and Williams failed? Not you or anyone directly but... I find it fascinating that there are still people around who don't acknowledge how much organizational dysfunction contributes...

    Washington Future QB Vote

    Ideally, they would have to have a veteran backup like Brissett behind the rookie draft pick. I believe that no matter which QB is drafted here, Howell is gone. The logic behind that is pretty obvious to me at least in that it eliminates quick trigger fans from first being split in their...

    So did I, but Ron Rivera apparently felt set with Kyle Allen, Garrett Gilbert and Taylor Heinicke. I seriously wonder if Chicago plans on keeping him considering that 4-2 finish.

    Fields spent the entirety of his professional life unsupported and poorly coached. I don't believe or support the idea that he would get more of the same in DC. Atlanta and Pittsburgh have some interesting talents that would mesh well with his own, and Pittsburgh has a system in place that...

    A couple of years ago, I wanted Washington to move up to get him but today I have to weigh that against the probability of drafting Daniels. Given that choice, it is best that they go with the rookie because he has the wheels and imo is a far better passer. Now, if I'm in the war room and the...

    Like Kirk, Fields would find the playoffs more attainable if he goes to a better suited team. The two that come to mind are Atlanta and Pittsburgh.

    He's gonna command somewhere between 40 and 45M this season so the question for the Vikings is pretty simple... do they pay him that amount for being a reliable QB? His playoff record would then become the biggest factor weighted against retaining him. I believe that Kirk wants to win a chip...

    Well, Reid did wear out his welcome in Philadelphia, and he finally got over the hump in Kansas City. Knowing that, do you think that Kyle will have to move on as Reid did, before finally hoisting Lombardi's? Wouldn't it be interesting to see Reid retire and Kyle replacing him in a year or...

    Most of these people are professionals or at this level should be professionals. Drawing up offenses or defenses accounts for at best 10 percent of what happens on the field. Finding competent players who are able to execute at a high level consistently together to achieve the desired result is...

    Skins hire Peters to be the new GM

    If Rivera had a plan, it was to replicate what failed in Carolina. The key piece there being Cam Newton when things did go well. The new group seems to be on a path to at least consider how it all fits together that garners success, but on that, time will tell. I'm sure that they have a plan...

    Newmark Asst. GM

    I love the use of "upgrade" and have been using it on this board for years in reference to how this organization must operate. If they are in perpetual upgrade mode then that is a clear sign to me that change is taking place.

    Washington Future QB Vote

    I also think it wise to make every attempt to see if the current tackles who came up short at the position have the ability to convert to guards. If they strike with that move, (or see the potential) there's one less position to fill. If it fails, then you're no worse than where you started...

    Exactly, you want to dismiss mine which doesn't support your POV, and accept that of others who support your perspective! As previously stated, you're hurt and/or disappointed because your team didn't finish as hoped, that's understandable, but turning that into needing to scapegoat (point the...

    I can insist upon it being a fact in the same manner that you did when you offered this as evidence. (A clear opinion) Now if you can find an example of a perfect defense in the salary cap era, you have my apologies! If not you have to admit that every defense has weaknesses and once exposed...
