The Too Soon 2021 NFL Draft Thread

I hope we draft the best QB still available with our first pick.

I am not convinced Alex Smith will come back next year. My impression of Allen is that he’s probably a journeyman but a decent backup QB. I’m not sure about Heinickle except that he has potential even though he is “short” at 6’. Let Heinickle, the rookie first pick and Allen compete for the QB spot.

Until we get a very mobile, franchise QB, we will not be able to balance our excellent defense with an equally good offense.

No one that has played QB for us this year is the future. Alex needs to retire and Allen/Heinicke are competing for who is No. 2 for most of next year (that's a fantastic and needed job, and well paid).

I'd add a true #2 WR to take heat of Scary, and another TE to partner Thomas. We have the backfield (though I'd be tempted to add a bruiser to replace Barber), we just need the targets for a new QB to throw to. Can't help wondering if AS had more guys to target, whether his passing stats would have been much better?...

You sure you didn't mean "you shouldn't" instead of you can't? Sounds like you are telling me what I can't and can do lol But getting back to the stat's. This is just my opinion backed up by statistics. Can Fields be the real deal - obsolutly he can but odds are not in his favor...

you know what I mean smart ass...lol.

Always loved the “experts” drooling over his 4 TDs in a half against The Citadel....🧐. Obviously he’s a really good QB, but the notion of tanking for him two years in advance is a little over the top.

I just don't see him on the same level as Burrow was last year. I look at his games against LSU and the other night, two times against top competition and he was not the best QB on the field. He was CLEARLY outplayed in both.

Mac Jones looks like a better passer. Obviously not a better athlete or runner, but a better drop back passer.

Seems to me that if we want to get a "franchise QB" in this draft, we are going to have to give up something to move up into the top 10. Where we will be drafting, the best we can hope for is Trask or the kid from Cincinnati and neither of those two seem like a sure thing.

Seems like a lot of WRs and LTs in the second half of the 1st round.

Things are setting up nicely.

yeah I was being a smart ass... lol it is all good

I just want want some one with more than 2 years starting and it would also be better if they played in a pro style offense... Haskins was a mistake I am a little leery of Heisman trophy winners because of pas history but that does not mean the won't work out... I like Mac Jones also. I think Lawrence, Fields and Wilson will be gone by the time we pick unless we trade up. Mac Jones may also be off the board as well.

T Law has all the tools, will he translate? I think so but you can never say for sure

I really like Desmond Ridder from Cincy as a QB, he would need to sit a year and learn but he big upside to be a solid QB.
