This is how I feel, and I wouldn't have a big problem taking a chance on him in the 2nd round, but I'm not willing to reach for him at #19.

All the mocks do seem to have him going before pick 20 though. It's a supply/demand issue at the most important position. Teams are willing to not pick the best player available, and take a chance on a QB early. It's how we got Chase Young last year. He was the best player in the draft, but Cincinnati desperately needed a QB and selected Burrow.

And Jets. I've heard reports that's the top destination.

I don't understand it, but it's been out there.

People assume the Jets, because they have the draft capital for such a trade. But I highly doubt Watson wants to go there.

49ers make sense, Denver doesn't make sense to me. Plus I can see Houston not wanting to trade Watson to another AFC team.

He's not wrong. Rivera said they're exhausti big all options, and they should. But I don't see them making an overpriced swing at anyone. Stafford made sense, but they got out priced. Like it or not the offseason may very well be much quieter at QB than many expect.

That wouldn't bother me. We're making progress in building a contender and I like the approach that RR and his staff have taken so far. I'd rather not use up our draft picks or our cap space this year. Also, I am totally against trading an excellent young player as part of a deal for a QB. I wish the talk of trading Montez Sweat would end now. I'm fine with drafting a QB as long as it's not a reach or bringing in a reasonably priced FA QB to compete with the ones we already have on the roster.

I'm with you on that. Don't give up the 3 to 5 years military style culture change process to chase SBs based on a false sense of being close. Keep building the conditions of sustained success.

I'm sure many of you have read this too ... but hell .. Heinicke is going to be the next Kurt Warner (or Matt Flynn) ... we're good to go! (kidding)

Honestly, reading this breakdown, I had no idea Heinicke was roughly the same size as Kurt Warner, with a similar background of "minor league" experience, and team hopping. In my head, I guess I thought of Heinicke as this little dude we scraped off the trash heap to plug in and play because he knew our system. But he's definitely more than that.

And because our front office was responsible in how we signed him, there's really no way he can become the next Matt Flynn.

As the linked piece above also says, this does NOT mean we shouldn't find another QB to bring to the competition. But it does make me feel better about the potential for Taylor Heinicke. He actually may have some potential.

Depending on price i like that. I think the fit and QB competition is perfect. If it's #19 its the stupidest trade ever.

If that's going to happen, I hope it's a player - straight up - and not a pick.

Who would you trade for him?

Well, we're deepest on the D-line, so probably D Payne. I don't really like that idea, but I like it better than trading a pick from the first three rounds.
