That's just wrong to say IMO. WENTZ was trash last season. And to not say requires saying the entire WR/TE corps was trash(which some are doing). This is easy to do especially if your kneejerk take is that all Howie's draft picks suck.  I happen to think you're wrong.

Hypothetically,  if SF offered us 12 and a 2022 1, for 6, would you take it? 

No

It's on tape. You can disagree all you want though

Correct.  Only 95% of Howie's picks suck.

Don't change my narrative - Howie is bad.

It's amazing how everyone jumped off the Smith bandwagon for Pitts.

Only if it's a trade back after 10, even then I'm a little, "eh" on the pick. But it's not as bad as like taking Reagor...

The Eagles are infatuated with Hurts because of some analytics/statistical study they've done where Hurts ranks behind only Patrick Mahomes in terms of on field awareness. His perception of where he's at on the field and how it relates to the other players is off the charts, according to their study. I can't remember where I heard or read this though.

The problem is this is 99% based off a great college football player dominating sorry Big-12 defenses. I'm not sure if they really get that.

Of course, the same could be said for Murray and Mayfield.

 I wouldn’t take him at 6 i think he’s going to be a good player. However i don’t think he’s going to be the best player available at 6. If we trade back I’m ok with it.

So he wins 6, its the same problem.  To get to a good QB will take a trade up and a bunch of resources.  

I don’t think we win 6 games either. We are trading vets and going with youth and a first year HC, new DC, etc.

But sure, then you need to trade up. We’ll have extra picks from Wentz and if Hurts actually plays well we can probably get picks for him too.

Parsons on his Instagram story just posted that he ran a 4.44 laser 40 at 6 foot 3 245 lbs and Jayson Oweh ran a 4.38 at 6 foot 5 250 pounds

Sure, but the big difference is the ability to throw the ball.

Then why does Hurts keep tucking the ball after 1.25 seconds and take off running?  He might be seeing the field TOO well?

He see's so much at once that he sees nothing at all.

East Texas isn’t much in the way of red clay.  More like GA, AL, MS and southern TN for that.  Red dirt, sure, but not really clay.  More dirt and sand.  You really have to get off the beaten path for dirt roads in Texas.  County roads even tend to be paved and Farm to Markets are pretty much paved.  When you think about red clay in country songs, think folk like Zack Brown, Florida-Georgia Line or Alabama.  Red Dirt  country started with Outlaw Country, Willie, Waylon, Jerry Jeff, Michael Murphy, Gary  Nunn, Guy Clark.  That’s a little far west for him.  Now, the backroads in Carolina bring you some mighty fine sights to behold too.  

Hell, East Texas ain't really Texas, it's the last bastion of the cotton south. Houston is it's own little world (where the South, the Sea and Oil met). And South Texas is North Mexico.

Spiritually, Texas starts on the West side of I-35, Fort Worth v Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Laredo, Amarillo, Lubbock, et al. And ends in Midland-Odessa, 'cause El Paso is really part of New Mexico. Marfa is where the weirdness is centered.

And so does the music. Though God only knows how Robert Earl Keen and Lyle Lovett escaped Texas A&M with any soul.

That's how I read it. I doubt Mort would be talking about WIP call in's who have expressed interest in trading up for Wilson.

Once he starts talking about glory hole I'm out

Ertz clearly dogged it and didn’t put in full effort.  It was disgusting to watch.  He was the first player to give up Week 1 when WFT started their comeback, and it lasted to the 4th quarter Week 17 against WFT — when he moved out of the way to let Chase Young hit Sudfeld.

They should. Pitts has higher upside and does more.

They are.  I wouldn't want either as our franchise QB...I'm still stunned they went #1 overall.

Just start rolling back draft capital to package an arsenal for Arch Manning in 2026.

Slower than I ran laser timed today. They may want to check out the equipment.

What top QBs?

Mahomes has Travis Kelce; he’s not asking

Watson isn’t on speaking terms with the Texans; he’s not asking

Wilson is tired of getting hit and Ertz couldn’t block an infant; he’s not asking

Brady and Lamar have TE talent in 3s; they’re not asking

Ask Michael Silver.

Every Lawrence highlight I've seen has him rolling out and making plays a la Russell Wilson.

Difference is, with Lawrence's frame, he tries that stuff in the NFL he'll be retired faster than Luck.

No it wasn’t. When a player and team plays poorly (as he and the team did) they’re subjected to "he gives no effort/doesn’t care”. This couldn’t be further from the truth , it’s total nonsense. High ankle sprain, came back early on a sh!tty team to play last 5 games with a Rookie QB. Then had ankle surgery. 
Talked about his love for the city, broke down in post season press conference and moved his parents here. 
 

The no effort/doesn’t care BS needs to stop. Have never been able to understand why players like Ertz get sh!t on in here. 
Played bad, sure.
