I don’t judge on wether a team got to a bowl game or not, it’s not really the point. Some undeserving teams always seem to get in every year. I’m saying 7-6 isn’t a good record for a QB projected to go in the middle of round 1, regardless of the team around him

Don’t say anything bad about CB.

I bet KC feels differently, seeing Texas Tech went 5-7 and no bowl in 2016. However, drafting P. Mahomes at 10.

Regardless of this all, I stand by my opinion that Jordan Love isn’t going to be that great. I suppose we can agree to disagree,

All good! It’s not like I’m going to get upset and make thread about it, because you have a different opinion.

You already know some people would lol. It’s cool, I’ve seen you around for a while and every interaction has been great, so as soon as I saw your response I knew it would just be healthy banter with no real hostility. It’s good to have differing opinions on these forums, because some people can think one thing and get so focused on it that they close their minds to alternative views. Hell, maybe by draft season I’ll even grow to somewhat like Love, but it’s all because we have to keep our minds open. Everyone has their reasons, it’s just only good when it’s shared and discussed. Have a great night, man!

It’s all about good scouting and the “willingness” to take a calculated risk on a player the FO likes. Recent good examples being Wentz and J. Allen. 

I agree with this. There are also recent bad examples like Turbisky and Paxton Lynch. That is what makes the draft fascinating and  franchise altering. I’m just glad we have CB. I trust whatever his decision is.

Who the heck voted for Luck?

Why no Tua option?

He’s staying at Alabama next year

That is fine you feel that way. Whether it is Jordan Love or Justin Herbert that will be in our striking distance in the draft that Ballard and folks pull the trigger on, I will get behind them and cheer them on as always. 

 

Following a playoff miss, it gets boring talking about water under the bridge. So, we can speculate about the possible lights at the end of the tunnel, free agency and the draft, hopefully.  

[BleedBlue4Shoe86]

I think the biggest thing to remember is that we, as fans, have are favorite players that are in the draft.  Whether it be Jordan Love, Justin Herbert, Jalen Hurts or Anthony Gordon. But that we are not the GM, we are not in the locker room and we are not at practice.  Therefore, CB has his board.  We might have Jordan Love with a first round grade and want him at 13, but CB may have him as a 2nd round grade.

 

Just remember, what we might want, Ballard may not.

Has that been confirmed? The last report I heard was Tua will make an announcement on Monday.

its not confirmed yet, he should be on the poll at least

 

Best QB that we could get in the draft 

[Thunderbolt]

This young man you cannot overlook.  Jake Fromm, I believe can be a great QB, Ballard needs to rethink if he hasn't already done so, draft this guy....

Because I think we can all agree that Jacoby will probably be the starting QB in 2020.

 

I must have watched a different press conference.  I don't have that sense at all.  I could see them drafting a QB and bringing in a free agent.  Let's be honest, what Brissett has actually done on the field in two years as a starter... not what people are hoping he might become... what he has actually done on the field  in two years as a starter is easily replaceable.  

[1959Colts]

I've just noticed latest rumors are now trickling down in the Bama blogs... that Tua may be staying in college.

For all those 1st rounders to be going back tells me the first bank of Bama has officially opened their vault.

Oh heck no. Knowing the Patriots, we would sign Brady, then 10 minutes before the start of Game 1, he'd pull out and retire, leaving us screwed by the Patriots again.

 

Probably would get us to the SB and purposefully throw about 5 pick 6's and then go up to the podium after the game and say "That's for deflategate". . . Drop the microphone and leave.  

[Valpo2004]

I think it will most likely be Brissett, but there is a chance they could sign Rivers.
