Possibly but you don't know unless you try. Wylie seemed fine in a phone booth but struggled against speed rushers, that's why guard seems like the best spot for him. I’d still draft a guard in R2 or 3 while also drafting an OT to develop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Unpopular opinion: We won't sign a lot of FAs but we’ll keep a few of our own who were leaders on the team. We will mostly build through the draft and it will take 3 years to form a playoff team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a culture year, and likely drafting a QB and letting them learn the ropes, taking the good with the bad. In 2025, you are hopeful the pieces are gelling together, continue to build the core and are around .500 with a possible Wild Card berth. In 2026, you are looking at a run at the division and a deep playoff run and putting your assets to use accordingly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) UNpopular opinion .. ..You can win with mostly average players plus a few really good leaders/ players and a coupla of elites. It's more coaching that player talent. Just need those 4 or 5 key players one being the Q B of course. We'll turn this thing really fast like Joe Gibbs going 8-8 to then winning a S B .

Ehh, I agree to an extent but let's not forget the great scouting work Bethard did & the great development of players Gibbs did. We don't win a Super Bowl without hitting on our early draft picks like Monk, Mark May, Russ Grimm, Charlie Brown, Manley, Monk, Daryl Grant, Clint Diddier, Green, Mann & Kelvin Bryant Of course the 1982 draft sucked, I don't think we hit on a pick.

Slappy Mc Posted February 5 Author Share Posted February 5 Unpopular Opinion: The team signs Russell Wilson in FA and trades down from #2. Unpopular Opinion: We got the right HC to lead the team, not the best coach available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of everything I can and could be upset about this offseason (Chip Kelly), this might be the very worst realistic thing that could happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistically, he had another great season. A veteran QB wouldn't be a terrible option to try to compete sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Caleb Williams, I don't like the QBs. I would prefer Sam Howell/Russell Wilson over every QB not named Caleb Williams. 2. I think our roster sucks. Especially the O-Line. I would prefer to build the team through the draft and a bridge QB helps get the talent around the roster. It also helps that Dan Quinn and Russell Wilson have familiarity and Russell also fits the QB style for Kliff Kingsbury's offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overconfidence in something that is anything but a sure deal, before FA, before the staff is even filled out is a bit surprising.
