Stewbo Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 2 hours ago, Antiochas III said: Sitting a QB is not a problem and usually a smart idea. But this scenario is nothing like the ones you mentioned. Rodgers wasn't overall number 1 pick, Brady was a sixth and Romo UDFA. All those QBs also sat behind some very good QBs, not behind a back up QB who has been forced to play starter. Nor did any of those QBs also never cost an arm and a leg to pick. This is a disaster for the Rams, as they have to many positions too fill to be sitting with there 2 first round pick QB in sweats. Its not different. Where a player was drafted has no bearing on how ready they are for the pros. Carson Palmer is an even closer example where its worked out. The Eagles have the same situation; Wentz isnt ready, they'll need to get by with shitey Sam Bradford for now but CW is clearly the better talent. Broncos too with Lynch (except hes actually not shown anything to say hes better than Trevor Siemian yet...) If any of them are made to start this season it'll ruin them. If they sit they should be the same players they were in college. it wont be a disaster if it works out, no matter what their record is this year they've got him for a while. Whats their alternative? Get offensive weapons to build around Case Keenum?! Theyd be stuck in a 49ers or Texans or Jets or Bills led situation forever. At least theyre trying to make themselves in to something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Its clear the Rams are at the start of a project, moving to LA and drafting a "franchise" QB seems to be the first stages of what will be a multi-year process. Theres no point destroying Goff before its even begun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Either Teddy's injury is worse than originally feared and could be career threatening, the Vikings feel their roster is in the place where they really have to win immediately or miss their chance, or that Rick Spielman is a moron. Possibly a combination of all three. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted September 3, 2016 Author Share Posted September 3, 2016 The Eagles are fucking delighted with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzle Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Possibly thinking along the lines that if Teddy is worse than expected then they would have to draft a QB in the first round next year anyway and throw him in at the deep end, also AP can't last forever so best to throw everything into now while they have a chance of going all the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fife Saint Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Yeah, they need to win now with AP about to hit the running back age wall. Eagles must be laughing though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Josh Sitton, released by GB, signs for Bears. Happy with that acquisition. Feel a bit sad that we've released Robbie Gould... okay he was shit last year but still been part of the team for ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spain Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Cecil Shorts could do a job for someone. Will probably end up at the 9ers to link up with Gabbert again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see us retain all our young WR's Charone Peake, Robby Anderson and Jalin Marshall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At then the Eagles go and make him their starter this year... I am not sure that it will ruin him but it certainly wouldn't have been what they were planning a month ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the current Vincent Lambert & Butler holder, why don't you run it. Just be ready to ban Spain as he has a tendency to whine and moan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
