Doesn't matter what the media says... Peters and co will go by their own evaluations of these guys and decide. They will know a lot more about these QBs than the media or any of us.

Editing a post on the phone sometimes takes forever.So I'm just going to make a new one.And maybe content for that record.Everyone keeps talking about while there will not be any advantage in learning curve for any q b's versus sam Having the experience of a whole year in the league playing at the NFL speed.And tempo against professionally coached defenses and athletes definitely counts for something. Part of me feels like peters may have learned something or even be a little bit gunshy after the lance situation(minus giving away picks of course). A small part of me thinks that they may stick with sam.... off my thoughts, my worse fear is we spend #2, they aren't up to par and Sam beats them out / comes in b/c injury and takes the job. That'd be worst case scenario. Pending he's even still with the team come week 1

It's fine and understandable for everyone to judge Sam but... give any 3 of these "top 3" sams situation the past 2 years and last year with a new offense? ... I feel a below 5% chance they do any better than he did and since that's his biggest knock? I just don't see the logic behind calling these 3 guys "better" without playing an NFL down. Such are rookie qbs tho 🤷

I think SH should be on the roster, but good luck selling a fanbase that you're taking a tackle instead of a high rated QB when we're in position to get one. If you do that and SH poops the bed again, everyone's going to be screaming to fire everyone.

You're not wrong. As much as everyone hated Dan, a lot of them sure have his patience. 🤷

What is the probability that we take a QB at #2? I'd say over 95%. I think we'd be making a huge mistake to not take one of the three QB's who are nearly unanimously considered by GM's to be potential Franchise QB's. So I can't imagine that we'd draft a Tackle at #2 or trade down. The only disaster we risk is by not drafting a QB at #2 and thereby failing to acquire a young Franchise QB. IMO, getting the right QB is so important that we are more likely to trade up to #1 to ensure getting the QB of our choice than we are to make any other move.

Yeah I totally agree, but I wonder if they had gotten Sam Darnold, who was first choice over the shit show Mariota, what the response would have been here.

With Mariota, it seals it for me that QB 1 will be taken at 2. But if it was Darnold, then I probably be thinking trade down/WR at 2.

Come on man. Sam Darnold? I would want him far away from the field too. Not as far as Mariota but far. I am not passing on this draft class for Sam Darnold. If anything we trade back into the first and grab an OT. If not we get him on day two. Five picks and still alot of areas of need , TE, WR, OT x 2, G, CB, Edge, FS. All needs. Some more than others but all needs. It is amazing what Rivera did to this roster that we could go get 8-10 new starters and still have so many areas of need.

There is a higher chance of it snowing today in DC than us not taking a QB at 2 or 1

[CRedskinsRule]

So we have a very early night watching day 1 of the draft And a late night draft party on Friday!

edit:

I actually think we will take some of those day two picks and trade up back into mid to late day one

I like the idea of trading back up for a T in round 1 or getting more picks in 2 & 3 to grab 2 of them, a CB and a TE. I don't like the idea of moving up to #1.

We seriously need help on our OL beyond C, which we secured in FA. It was a huge reason to Howell's lack of progression.

would you trade picks 35, 40 and a 5th to jump way up if one of the 3 top tackles falls below 10 overall?
