WTF are we doing?

[Drink IRON City]

OUTSTANDING takes, sir.
Spot on all around.
I've had said for months to anyone who will listen ( which is nobody, per usual ) this QB class = Kenny FN Pickett draft class.
NOBODY worth a first.
Watch Mendoza tape then watch Will Howard tape from their final college years.
Then look at their IDENTICAL stats up and down the board.
Glad to see the Raiders keeping the overdraft reach alive from their Jamarcus Russell days to now.
Mendoza doesn't have the arm strength. He's noodle armed. Yeah he's a winner, but so were Tebow and Manziel.
And yes, I do believe next year's draft class is better than this year's.
Punt on QB in the draft this year, whether ARod comes back or not.
NO QB this year is worth a 1st, and we already have our project in Howard.

EXCELLENT post fedderone, appreciate yaz.


I want us to start the “moving” forward journey.

This Ben vs Rodgers is horse pocket Mecca the one’s retired and the other should be.

Regardless, get through this year with out huge expense at QB, next year’s draft is the true QB move up to get draft.

Last year at this time, everyone was saying the 2026 draft was the true QB draft, we passed on Dart.

I hear yaz SIR !!!

Last year everyone was looking and wishing for the future……..

Alas, nothing has changed so we all have to look and wish on the future again…………..

Rodgers isn’t ever taking us to the promised land. The only thing with him is we can all “hope” on what rubs off onto the rookies.

As you've already admitted, they don't include bad throws on highlight reels. Will Howard's highlight tape from the combine looks just great, too.

Yes, Rodgers can still make some nice throws while he's moving. He also made a shitload of inaccurate ones, too. This is backed up by both the eye test and his shltty accuracy statistics. Here's another stat line for you, since you enjoyed the first one so much:

CAY is Completed Air Yards. That's how far the pass is completed past the line of scrimmage. The top three quarterbacks in CAY per completion last season were Lamar Jackson (7.7), Drake Maye (7.5), and Matt Stafford (7.4). There were 33 qualifying QBs in 2025. Geno Smith was #32 at 4.3. Who was dead last? You guessed it -- Rodgers at a paltry 3.7. Less than half of the best number, and over a half yard less than the second-worst guy. Pathetic. And this only compounds how bad his overall on-target percentage was, a full percentage point below the league average, despite the ridiculous amount of short throws in that sample.

With DK and a bunch of scrubs...Smith not wanting to use Muth...lots of variables.

Agree on the variables, and I feel Muth is going to have a much bigger role in this year’s play.

That’s partly why we needed to move on from Rodgers, but maybe he can give us enough to keep the middle of the field active so as their defense has to actually prepare and guard it.

No QB in the first, please, if we don't trade up for a Buckeye defender, stay put and take the Penn St. guard.
