Jerry Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 5 hours ago, big_palooka said: Exactly my point. Started based on being the #1 overall pick. Lost the starting job, didn't get a second contract with his team. Worth noting Peyton didn't elevate him either. So you're saying Nix starts, is elevated by Peyton but not elevated enough to keep the job and busts? And when do we see that play out? Throughout his rookie contract. Probably won't have his 5th year option picked up. He'll hit FA and start holding clip boards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not hard to tear up the pac 12. Guy is pretty short to be a premium passer. Attitude is absolutely terrible, he has the WR diva attitude which isn’t gonna work as a QB. I've said it time and again, and I'll keep saying it: The Notre Dame defense exposed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like Nix, but for the fact he's with the Broncos I'll hope he's not franchise material. I think he will surprise people. He was the most pro ready QB in the class imo. He's smart, athletic and has a good arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every premier QB prospect has a game or two where they're not at their best. His talent is undeniable. I think he's going to be great.

Right, people who are shocked Jimmy G was a worthless bum clearly never understood what they were watching or what it takes to be a good NFL QB.

Tank4Drake Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Jimmy was my most criticized QB in NFL General for 4+ years and I constantly called him dumb as bricks infuriating Niner fans. He’s a really, really, really, dumb QB. Also has a weak arm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank4Drake Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Adams wanted Rodgers or Carr Mark and Josh wanted Brady A dysfunctional organization didn’t get either. They “settled” on Jimmy, who IMO they KNEW he sucked. They couldn’t go back to Carr after what happened, and we looked like a totally dysfunctional organization. Never “settle”, it will always end up in disappointment. We settled. We also settled this year on Minshew/AOC. 4-8 win season incoming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure this is exactly what happened and when everything fell through, they actually asked Carr to stay. Which is freaking CRAZY. Like you benched him for the last two weeks of the season thinking you're about to get Brady. Then he retires. And now you're asking Carr to stay? Mind blowing. Still can't believe that happened. But here we are. Insider Says Raiders Circled Back to Derek Carr After Learning Tom Brady Wasn’t Coming to Las Vegas – Raiders Beat Someday, we will find a great QB. And I will shed tears of joy.

I hadn't seen that article, but hard time make sense of it. He was under contract. Just pay him, force him to play or force one of those teams that he was talking to trade for him. Teams do it all them time with disgruntled players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you imagine if he did the bare minimum, sat out the first 8 weeks, and then McDaniels ended up being fired like he was in week 8? Then AP comes in and makes him the starter again. Would have been an even more wild season. Man, I would have loved watching that all unfold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't bench him the last 2 games after maybe the worst game in his career. That tanked his trade value. I liked some of Ziegler's draft picks but that was a terrible decision.
