If Pickett falls to 19 I wouldn't be mad if we took him.

Wait till they make it 8 playoff teams per conference 

Feel so bad for Smith. Guy could be so much more if he had someone that didn't suck at QB.

Shocker.  A team that really shouldn't be in the playoffs matched up against a team that is pissed off about not getting a bye.

Anthony Harris was such a bust for us. Is he even better than Epps?

He’s a slow SS that isn’t even a hitter. Epps is better and that’s not a rousing endorsement.

I sorta feel that way. But this team is already ready for a good playoff run with a QB. So I dont want to take lumps with a rookie. I want to hit the ground running with a proven vet.

Nelson was much better

WR has jumped CB as a higher need. DE>S>LB>WR>CB

Technically we need high level starters from all those positions. Sign two in FA then draft the other 3 in round 1

Well, not a shocking result. 

Big offseason ahead. At least we have the draft picks, better make ‘em count.

At the very least, it’ll be an interesting one. 

Feels like we’re in no-man’s land at QB. We know Hurts is a bridge QB, but there aren’t players worth chasing in FA (I have no interest in spending money on guys like Bridgewater or Winston), it’s a weak QB draft, and it seems like Wilson and Rodgers will stay where they are. 

That leaves Watson, and the presents a bunch of problems too.

well, thats about as far as we deserved to go with this QB. Feel a bit for most of the rest of the team who probably played well enough to win if we had a QB. But, since we dont, this is where it should have ended. So having pick 19, instead of something even lower is a good result from today. No injuries to key players that will carry over in to next season is another positive.

Hopefully proving Hurts can NOT be the guy going forward, even next year, is another positive. 

Unless ofcourse , if the FO (Howie) Still doesn't want to take that double L for Drafting Hurts, and insists we play Hurts as starter again next year. (which is the only explanation why he played this year- along with guys like JJAW and Reagor)

Who the hell is 32 from the Bucs?  His hair looks like Hawk's after the tattoo parlor incident in the new season of Cobra Kai lol

Agree.  That's a really bad haircut or whatever the Hell that's supposed to be.  Dude, just shave your noggin.

If the D had better talent, the shiteness on O could be tolerated a little more.  This team needs DT, DE, LB, CB and S in the worst possible way

Sure, but offense is what definitely failed us today. Defense stopped Brady several times

The only focus going forward should be getting an elite QB. Nothing else matters.

Yup when you dont have one, you have almost zero chances of doing anything in the postseason

the eagles rookie record is a very low bar. They talked it up but you know he doesnt feel great about it. Less than 1000 yards and he was capable of like 1400 with a bunch more TDs.

I really hope we find a veteran WR. We need a proven guy.

I agree but they don't grow on trees.

Agreed.

I have no desire to use our draft picks on a trade for a QB.

The best outcome is that there is someone in this draft that we are in position to pick and they exceed expectations. 

Bad year to need a QB.

31 points? Look the D stiffened up but I would not say they did enough to win. 

Draft Carson Strong late 1 early 2.  In that range, it’s a commitment, but not a marriage.  

Trade Hurts for what you can get since the rest of the country thinks he’s so special.

Start Minschew until Strong is ready.  Or start Minschew all year until you get another go at the 2023 draft.  
 

Minschew is NOT good, but he will put the ball out there enough for the passing game and WRs to develop.  

He's not even accurate throwing on the run... for a running QB.  That was an 'easy' toss to Watkins there.
