POLL: Is It Time To Bench Rivers?

[ChargingBolts]

1 - CIN - needs QB, but maybe the redhead wins a few games at end of season to drop out of the spot or change draft priorities?
2 - Giants - not likely to draft a QB high
3 - Wash- not likely to draft a QB high are they really sold on their new QB?
4 - MIA- needs QB
5 - ATL- not likely to draft a QB high
6 - DET- not likely to draft a QB high Is Stafford possibly done due to broken back?
7 - ARIZ- not likely to draft a QB high
8 -JETS- not likely to draft a QB high are they sold on their QB?
9 - Chargers - needs QB
10 - JAX- needs QB
11 - DEN- not likely to draft a QB high it's Elway
12 - CAR -- not likely to draft a QB high
13 - PHI - not likely to draft a QB high
14 - TB - not likely to draft a QB high Winston?
15 - CLEV - not likely to draft a QB high

Odds are Burrow will go to CIN or a team that can trade up top that spot. Biggest problem is MIA desperately needs a real QB and has more ammo/high picks to trade up with.

There are two top ten OTs, Thomas and Wirfs...both NY teams need OTs.

A variety of scenarios could play out,
everything from trade offers that cannot be refused,
to call my bluff.

How much will QBs other than Burrows be overhyped and overdrafted ? IDK.

Hence my speculation that Tua will be on the board for us,
and TT makes the classic TT move.

CeeDee would give us WR#3 and multiple hot targets to counteract the pass rush...boosting our Oline functionality.

It will be too early to draft Biadasz, the third plug n play Olineman.

The universal trench madness fails to take into account that other Olinemen will all have growing pains.

Draft the trenches for Rivers everyone says...yeah right.

[blueman]

Tua just scares the hell out of me, he wants to run so much and is good at it, but how many rushes before he gets injured? I would be cringing every time he bursts out of the pocket, do not want to be that fan.

[Kingcrimson]

Burrow for sure gone by the time we pick. Tua is a huge gamble being so fragile. What’s the scoop on Hurts and Herbert? who we have a realistic chance of having. Haven’t kept up with college football

[blueman]

Herbert likely gone, Hurts a good choice with zero trades.

[beachcomber]

No thanks to Whitworth - he will be 38 next week and is playing like it.

ok.... duly noted,

am in armchair mode and will take your word for it, and if until eye hear or am led to believe otherwise, and.... would love to add a FA OL somehow/someway ??

[richpjr]

Herbert likely gone, Hurts a good choice with zero trades.

In the second or third round?

Nope, draft the trenches for whoever is behind that line, including the running backs.

Have a look at how the board is going play out.

I would be happy with
Tristan Wirfs ORT
or
Derrick Brown 1Tech/3Tech !

We need some Quenton Nelson's on the line.TT pay the men.

I would rather they address o line via free agency.
They typically do better there than the draft.

Plus the FA is a veteran who has experience getting it done at the NFL level.

These two very solid veteran hopefully are back for a healthy season and they are still only 31 and 32 years old. So I think they have another 3 to 4 good seasons left. I would look to extend these players.
Okung - OT
Pouncey - OC

Go after these free agents. Get one of them.
A. Castonzo - OT
B. Scherff - OG

Continue to develop
Feeney - OG
Lamp - OG
Quessenberry - OC
Pipkins - OT
Tevi/Scott - OT

Go after Burrow -QB
Add DB with a high rd pick if available.
Get speed at WR
Get another TE.

Not so sure about developing either Tevi or Scott...I'd still like to draft an OT, an OG, but I do agree with u that we should also sign a solid FA OT and maybe G...we need QUALITY depth on the line, because Okung, Pouncey and Lamp are question marks health wise...
