Gilmore for Mariota with a 4th coming back would be solid
Cousins,
Started off this morning with home made apricot bread and cream cheese warmed with cut strawberries on top. Plus coffee and orange juice.
Not a bad trade! Touche.
Here is the problem. Most posters here think BB is going to go on indefinitely.Some scribes even say to tank this yera.......why? Do we have the 1989 Cowboys Draft class stacking up for the Pats and available in 2022?
BB is quietly on a revenge tour in 2021. TB12 Superbowl cut him deep. You can say he had a lot of the blame in 2020 and even before for his stubbornness in trying to make Tier three FAs into Tier one stars.
I think the Krafts had a lot more to do with the Roster than appears.
Josh Gordon and Antonio Brown were good attempts but in the end (it was their own doing,) the Krafts wanted no drama.Yes TB was kept over Jimmie G but the results were still viable. I think BB would have kept Brown.
Well now the franchise took a big hit this year as far as legacy. BB wants to change that now. A rookie QB is not the answer. Lawrence will be good but will take years to pull that franchise up.
"Butt Fumble Sanchez and Ravens' Joe Flacco are the only
rookies since the 1970 merger to win
multiple playoff games in their first season. No
rookie quarterback has ever led his team to a
Super Bowl."
If you read that least sentence and as I have mentioned, BB has a shelf life now, the odds say he goes for a Veteran with an upside on Cam. Cam was not all bad (he was a awful as a passing QB but a very decent leader) . I think his Team mates loved him and wated to play for him. He was a "broken" thrower.I am not a Cam fan but he loved the game and had fun.
If you could install that quality in Mariota, you'd have something.
It might not be the cast of characters you see available at QB. It could be a Kurt Cousins. It could be Alex Smith (watched his tape......he was not that bad this year) and I still lean toward Gardner Minshew or Kyle Allen (who they tried for) because they are cheap enough to allow us to fill spots. A shocker might be Daniel Jones of the Giants who has been mediocre and was not signed by the present staff so no allegiance there. The Giants Draft 11th. They started Jones as a Rookie and it was not that good. Their O Line is not great and got him in bad situations. Maybe a Trey Lance for them might work....They are retooling and a Rookie QB would be O.K. Picking up a high pick from the Pats would help them.Can Josh fix this kid?
In the end it's what BB puts around any QB. Not enough now.
