Which isn’t a bad thing considering Jones has been the best rookie QB to date .

I'm curious to see Ridder come CFP/Bowl season, if you want upside, he is it.

He has accuracy issues, but the talent is real.

Sam Howell is not an NFL prospect.

Pickett throws with more velocity than Mac, that's why I think he has a slightly better arm, but not by much.

Both have arm talent that is more than good enough for the NFL.

Yeah, I think Mac throws with more velocity. 

I'm not so confident about Pickett's arm in the NFL.

I disagree, Pickett can make every throw in the book. I have seen him throw across the field, off his back foot, on the move etc.

The ball jumps out of his hand, and it spirals well.

this isn’t the year if you’re looking for a immediate starter , they all have warts , I’m not a fan of starters rookie QBs anyway , sit a year at least .

It's either drafting a QB in the first or trading the farm for Wilson. Don't see Lowie taking a 3rd option.

So pick your poison.

Friggen liberty ole miss game isnt on tv?? Wtf

SEC Network. 

So possibly down three of their top corners?

Willis is a real raw  Lamar Jackson  , yes that bad 

I would take Barriere over Willis  , just as big of a arm  , duel threat QB , much further along at the position .

Yeah unless something changes I’m officially on board with waiting until 2023 draft for a QB. Next year just roll with Hurts again, or Minshew, or someone that’s already in the NFL. I’d rather those picks are used for the defense/OL & if they can make a trade to add day 1 or day 2 picks in 2023 then even better

Didn’t we play a game earlier this year with all the opponents CBs hurt and still couldn’t take advantage

Average arm talent would be okay, but I am not sure they can coach quicker reads into Hurts. He is too slow to pull the trigger. 

Yeah his core processor seems to be running a little slow...

It’s hard to click like on a post that says roll with Hurts, but 2022 is not the time to invest in a qb, unless it’s a mid round lottery ticket in someone with some potential that we aren’t really paying attention to right now.

Id rather go with Minshew for 2022 just so the WRs can develop, not because I’m deluded into thinking he’ll get the team to compete.

Repeat after me, Eagles are 13 in ppg, despite all the ups and downs of the first 8 games.

They may finish the season in the top 10, if the OL jells, Sirianni uses more play action off a top rushing game, and Hurts settles in behind more consistent pass blocking.

If they had an above average defense (we'll see how they progress the second half), they'd be a legitimate playoff team even with Hurts at QB. Because his running ability adds a dimension that allows you to be patient with his slow development, much like Lamar, who he is similar in his impact on the offense.

Hurts  73  432  5 TDs

Lamar 76  480  2 TDs (7 games)

While you worry about most running QBs, how many hard hits has Hurts taken as a runner? Fewer than in the pocket, and far fewer than Wentz did. That's b/c Hurts has good instincts in the open field, is build like a power back (strong and squat), and he doesn't have an upright running style like most QBs.

Yes, they could upgrade, but given the whole package, they could also downgrade just as easily with a 1st rd QB, especially in this draft.

I still think Garoppolo is in play.

(To anyone about to write a sarcastic, negative comment: I’ll take Bill Belichick and Mike Lombardi’s opinion about QB’s over your thoughts.)

3 of Top 4, Yes.

If they're smart, they'll put Derwin James on Goedert, Harris on our WR #2 and double Smith. That still leaves 6 for them. If our WR #2 can win the matchup, we should score a ton. If not, it could be a long day.

Where do we rank in PPG in the first three quarters?

I just want to reiterate for someone whose engaged to someone who freely admits she sun tans her butthole and genitals and also took advice from a taxi driver in Africa to eat clay, and then he gives that bat ish interview, but he still didn’t want to get into exactly what he did in Canada. I can’t even imagine what he did "for months” that he thinks built him up enough to be considered "immunized.” 

The idea behind sun tanning ones genital is founded in the fact that the sun provides vitamin D to the body and getting vitamin D directly to genitals can help with libido and such in theory, so there is some sound science behind sun tanning ones genitals.😳
