That's probably what it'll look like. Somewhere 6th-10th.

We have a much tougher schedule than these teams, and we're actually not better than any of them, especially with Mac back there. I can see us finishing much higher

If they trade Dugger I’m gonna be pissed off.

Duggar and Peppers should stay.

I have a feeling that Bill will find a way to bump into 3-4 wins and, essentially, foul the draft positioning up too.

I have a feeling that Bill will find a way to bump into 3-4 wins and, essentially, foul the draft positioning up too.

I had us at 8 or 9 wins this year with everything being optimal (Jack Jones, Gonzalez, Dugger, Peppers and Jon Jones shutting everything absolutely down). A healthy Onwenu and Strange. Mac Jones making a big leap under Bill O'Brien. Given the injuries and the QB, I just looked at the schedule and I have us at 4-12.

4-12 is a top 5 finish in any given year, so even with your 3 wins, we are right where we are now.

If we can't trade up for Caleb Williams, I hope we avoid Drake Maye and trade up for Marvin Harrison instead

I'd trade down and stockpile picks. They need a lot of help, even with the 100m in cap space. Gimme one of those stud OTs in R1 and maybe the QB from Texas in R2.

 

[Sciz]

Some good news, but a lot more missing than expected. No injury report until tomorrow. This is all we get today.

You hope to not pick that high again for a long long time, and that's the place where you find stud QBs. Look at all the QBs drafted 2 thru 6 over the last 25 years.

3 of them turned into franchise QBs: Brady, Brees, Prescott. That's it.

Brady was picked #199, famously. Brees went 2nd, while Prescott was pick #135 in 2016. Not sure where you're going with it.

I like Duggar, but all bets are off at this point. If Duggar netted them a 2nd or 3rd, it'd be hard to pass. I'd still be mad though.

The patriots would jump at a 3rd since they have no assuarance that he will re-sign in the off-season. The alternative is for the patriots to extend Dugger now,

Sure, we should simply play without a QB.

Where did I say that? I said the kid from Texas (Quinn Ewers) in R2.
