So your contention is that somehow Sean Payton thinks that Zach Wilson is really the 2nd-coming of Drew Brees? Sure, that sounds reasonable. Sean Payton has always been a good if not great evaluator of offensive talent. I doubt he's watched Zach's tape and said to himself "yeah, this guy is really a HOFer!!!" I get that people want to hate on DEN. But Payton isn't Adam Gase or Nat Hackett. |

meh. I can't remember a HC that didn't occasionally make a bad decision or two over the course of a long career. Andy drafted Skyy Moore. Shit happens. Iirc, Wilson has the better arm of the two, and Stidham isn't mobile, is that right? Well, what does Payton like in his offenses? QBs with decent arms and some mobility. Also, iirc, Stidham is the better pocket passer. If I remembered those things correctly, well, it looks to me that Wilson is a cheap roll of the dice that he might somehow take to Sean's offensive scheme and coaching and might beat out the rather pedestrian Stidham for the interim starting QB job. If not, he can still be there as QB3 in case someone gets injured. Or if the drafted QB doesn't work out. I mean, I could be wrong as well. Just saying, based on the evidence, that's what it looks like to me, that's all. Last edited by Megatron96; 04-22-2024 at 02:22 PM.. |

Doesn't matter who they ever have at QB, they don't have Patrick Mahomes. We do , and that right there means another 10 years of AFCW title for us minimum

However, he was the 2nd overall pick, and has a lot of physical talent. He is going to fail if he starts this season, but it's also possible that he learns from Payton, and is a better QB in the future. Let's remember that the Steelers cut Len Dawson, or let's remember Kurt Warner's journey to becoming a star QB. Successful QBs don't always find said success with the team that drafted them. QB is probably the hardest position in sports to accurately evaluate at the highest professional level. For every Peyton Manning there are probably 10 Ryan Leafs, or Andrew Lucks versus Trey Lances, etc. Or even worse, you have situations like drafting a Todd Blackledge over a Jim Kelly or a Dan Marino. |

I agree. IMO, if they trade, they'll trade back, to acquire more picks because they need to build their crap roster.
