    Green is green but intriguing. Maybe someone MM can mold into something in a few years.

    A sixth round pick is a near throwaway. Doesn't have to be much of a reason to make the pick other than filling out the QB room.

    Im sure there is a reason Howard fell to the 6th but I’d rather see an unknown younger guy than a 43 year old who we know the ceiling on. Willis just seems way too expensive on a weak FA market to mess with. The draft this year beyond Mendoza is incredibly weak. Ugh

    I definitely don’t want ARod back and I don’t want us taking Ty in rd 1. If he is still there in rd 3 maybe.

    Steelers have hit on some 6-7 rounders. Antonio Brown, Kelvin Beachum and Brett Kiesel.

    Now the problem there is, 'are they speaking coach speak.' (They are never going to say what they really think)

    Howard in my opinion, probably is not going to be an instant gratification QB which they've indicated they want.
    As I figure, I think if they could work a deal 1 or 2 for like Kirk Cousins, (Although, He's not the ideal mentor but just to use a name)
    Then you have someone to help Howard. And it would definitely help in the actual assessment - even as early as preseason.
    It really should have been Rogers, he was perfect.

    Earlier I was pro - trade for Mac Jones. Not so much now.
    But I would like a decent Vet...
    Howard is not a bad plan.

    Why not Mason? Unless they see and get performances I do not see.
    Maybe he does answer the bell, I'm pessimistic but would welcome a mini Sam Darnold scenario.

    I don’t think Mason is anything more than a spot start backup. I have seen enough of him over the years to think that is the case. Maybe MM can work magic. I just don’t want AR back or even a Kirk Cousins. Those dudes are nothing more than a 1 year stop gap to try and win 9 games.

    And how many 6th and 7th round picks are gone before the paint dries on their Nameplate?


    A fool and his money are soon parted; as for me I would rather have a jersey at these prices.

    Agree on Mason.
    But not quite agree on the vet.

    Rogers, I think we missed the window. Last year was the year for that.
    Cousins who I only named dropped... but 1 or 2 year deal will not kill us. But he's not going to agree to a situation where we say, "You'll start some games until we see if Howard can do it" So that isn't a possibility in my mind.
    But if did, then I would.
    Still taking a QB in the first round in 27

    No to Murray, No to Willis, No to Winston, no to Geno.

    ARII wants to contend, i dont see Howard starting. I hope he gets a shot as a backup though. This would seem to be the year we see him get some meaningful playing time.

    He should play a lot in the preseason but after watching KP in those games not sure what you can actually take away. If Rodgers comes back he almost certainly misses more than 1 game next year so I would think Howard might get a few starts if he beats out Mason.
