Forty whiners vs lackeymanders

[MTK]

Battle for what? Sam has shown why he was a 5th rounder, a lot of holes in his game.

If you draft someone high you're committing to that player and have to get him ready, meaning he needs 90% of the offseason snaps. Practice time is so limited as it is, there's no opportunity to have guys splitting time.

Sorry but Sam isn't going to get a realistic chance of starting unless it's due to injury or the new guy is a total miss from the jump.

Agree to disagree.

Sam has shown promise, and he has shown that he needs work. You'll likely get the same results (if you're lucky) with whoever you draft in Round 1, assuming that's the way they go.

Battle for QB1. Practice time is limited, but that doesn't mean the Coaching staff can't evaluate both QBs and make a determination who is better suited to run the offense in game 1 of the 2024 season.

New GM and a new staff will have no loyalties to Sam.

They're going to be all in on getting their guy up to speed asap.

No, probably not. But he is under contract. And he is in the top 15 in the NFL most QB stats. Hasn't translated into a lot of wins, but that has been a team effort all year. He also leads the NFL in interceptions, but he's thrown them at about the same clip as Josh Allen.

New GM and a new staff will have loyalties to putting the best players on the field. Just because you drafted a QB in the top 10 doesn't mean he is going to give you the best chance of winning game 1. See Trey Lance.

The new GM will watch meticulous film of Sam before any decision is made.......I don't see any commitment Sam either.....which means the new GM would attain a starting QB through the draft, free agency, or a trade.....we'll see what happens.
