I say this too, roll with what we got and draft Trey Lance if we can move up a few spots to get him.

Fields will be long gone by pick 10[/quote]

Yep.. I have been saying this since day 1 of the offseason, we will roll with Heinicke/Allen/rookie QB or Smith. It's not the ideal option but we have very limited options so we just need to focus on strengthen whole team for the next QB.

Best article I’ve read in a minute. I’m in total agreement that we should be against mid tier free-agent pick ups. Definitely advocating for a top tier quarterback or ride with what we got and put those draft picks and free agent money into solidifying other position groups so we can go all out to attack for a top FA QB or trade up in the draft for a top prospect next year.

Still don't think they can just roll with Heinicke & Allen. Heinicke has been injured in every NFL game he has started, and Allen is coming off a bad ankle injury. Not exactly a dynamic duo. It's a dumb idea to roll with that, and it would be complete negligence. If they both got hurt, it's over.

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

I think the article is recommending that if they can't sign a top-tier FA, or trade up for one of the top rookies, then they should save their resources and sign a low-priced free agent quarterback, rather than trade for Darnell, Mariota, etc.

Yeah I didn’t articulate that the way I wanted reading my post again. I agree it would be negligent to not sign anyone else. But short of a top tier FA or draft pick, our target should be a low priced vet, not mortgaging draft picks or sizable cap space for a mid tier QB who will most likely not provide much, if any, real upside over our current QB tandem.

Agreed.

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

I wonder if the Jets are really ready to move on from Darnold. If so I bet we could get him for a 2nd or even a 3rd. I’d take a shot why not? Let’s be real, Gase is a QB ruiner

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

Do not want Darnold and certainly would not give up a 2nd or 3rd for him . He isn't any better than what we already have. Lower tier starter at best. Also Gase isn't necessarily bad at scheming up offense. How is Scott Turner any better or how would he get anymore out of Darnold than Gase? Just makes no sense IMO.

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

I would not give up draft picks for JAGS and hope they stick or outperform what we have. It was Stafford or bust.

Mariota, Darnold, Fitz.. NO. You got two guys in Allen and Heinike. You draft someone and under no circumstances bring back Smith.

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

This is why if we can't get a guy we really want in a trade, that gives us a quality starter for 2-3 years at least, we should draft and pick up a 1 year rental like Fitz as a bridge. And a trade is looking less and less likely to me. If Allen and Heinicke are 100% for camp maybe 1 of then can start and run the offense at a good enough level for us to be competitive again, but to me it's too big an if. Bring in a vet to compete with them, then keep the best 2 plus a rookie. To me its low risk bringing in a 1 year FA rental as you're not thing up a ton of cap or draft picks on a trade for an equivalent talent (unless by some miracle you could snag Watson), and if the rookie is a bust, you try again next year.

Can't help feeling if we put all our eggs in the one basket of 2 injured QBs it could come back and bite us.

We have to try just about anything. I believe thinking you can roll with Allen and Heineke is a big mistake. Neither one of them is the answer IMHO.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of trading for anyone, but just rolling with Allen and Heinicke is not really a viable option.

They will likely add a QB before the draft and in the draft.

I think a fourth for either Maritotta or Darnold wouldn’t be the end of the world and draft a developmental guy late might be a decent compromise.

No, not the end of the world, but would they be significantly better than Taylor, Fitzpatrick, Dalton, Beathard, Winston, etc.? I don't think so - so why give up draft capital?

Re: WFT Quarterback Thread - Post SEASON 2021
 

Do we have any hope for the practice squad qb we had last year?
