The Sam Howell Thread

Dotson and McLaurin will both be over 1000 yards next year and the Oline will give up half the sacks all because Sam is no longer shitting the bed at QB.

I can't wait to hear Sam supporters talk about how much talent he has going into his 3rd rookie season and how he just needs a chance with 5 all pro linemen and 3 superstar WRs. Dude will end up on someone's practice squad next year and you guys will still make excuses for him, "He is shellshocked, EB ruined him".

Dotson has turned into a literal ghost this year. Gotta get the ball to the outside WRs more, that's for sure.

I 100% want Sam back next year. You got a young guy w/ some talent and keep developing him. Really hoping the new regime VALUES the QB position because Ron DID NOT. You have to think starter, vet back up and one guy developing.

With that said Sam needs to go back in the lab. He seems to not see the field very well, maybe he can't see over the defenders. Some short guys struggle with that although Brees never did. Sam has a long way to go but he has shown some really good stuff. Needs better coaching, better system and like I said, needs to keep developing. Maybe he is a really good back up in this league, nothing wrong w/ that. But I don't feel like you shut the door on him. That would be a mistake.

The only way you move him is if you draft 2 QB's this year and someone offers something higher than wear you drafted him. So a realistic trade probably wouldn't happen until after the draft, if at all. But otherwise, yeah, you definitely keep him on the roster next season.

Note - I would highly doubt that the new front office sees Fromm as a viable No. 2 QB. He will probably be gone. And Brissett will probably sign somewhere else with a better opportunity to start all season. Going to need to add at least 2 QB's this off-season, to add with Howell.

I am conflicted my 2 cents are that if we draft a QB bring in a solid vet for leadership and stability. Does Sam go back to QB3 then if the draft pick pans out? I know there are more teams that need a QB than there are QBs in the draft. If someone misses their guy perhaps we can get some draft capitol from someone for Sam. There is no way they release him on a rookie deal though that is just crazy talk

I wouldn't be surprised if the new GM traded Jahan......he has not impressed.

Dotson may just be suffering a sophomore slump. I'd see how he looks in camp before deciding. Besides we may be losing 3 WR's in FA, so trading a guy who may recover in year 3 (before he even gets a sniff of what will likely be a new offense) could be a mistake. I think Dyami Brown is surplus and I'd rather re-sign Pringle.

Dotson was a baller in college and looked very promising last year, all our WR's are having down years this year. NO WAY I'M TRADING HIM THIS OFF-SEASON!

There's other number 2s that are better than Dotson......if I'm the new GM I'm looking to replace all of the slacking players......

Dotson isn't going anywhere.

I'm looking at someone like Jonathan Allen that could be dealt.
