We’re In The QB Lottery Now

If Tua's not there at #6 then move down or draft BPA on need.

There is no point in having any discussion about players/contracts/free agency/draft/Oline/Dline/winning football games if we don’t have a qb that can accurately throw downfield
Rivers can still do this but is expensive and needs an elite Oline that isn’t realistic within his window therefore not a wise option and why I’m fine moving on
the only other option is to secure said qb via draft
burrow isn’t happening
herbert is a debatable option
tua is an injury risk we not only should take, but need to secure to have any chance at building something around bosa’s prime and that’s assuming we can convince him to sign
To convince Bosa to stay, you promise to get a qb nd help at iDL and lots and lots of mula

I don't agree Rivers needs an elite line, he needs an average line. His football IQ and quick release are possible reasons why TT has not spent huge on the oline as Rivers can mask a lot of issues. Clearly, that won't work with a rookie QB.

You might be right but it’s still not a risk I’m looking forward to.
How soon do you realistically see Telesco building an average Oline? Especially considering having to pay Rivers again.
more importantly, how many seasons will that average Oline overlap with Rivers’ ability
most optimistic estimation shouldn’t be more than 1, 2 years tops? Personally I think 0
a rookie would have a new window.
essentially my argument is that we can’t continue to both pay Rivers AND afford the team he needs around him.
we had our shot.

Right. The 2018 oline was a good one but not elite.

and when Pouncey wore down, it went from good to scraping average.
