  I'd be OK with him being an outside LBer. Maybe with his speed we'd have a LBer that could cover...

There may be a team out there that is looking for a vet QB like AD who'd be willing to give us what we spent on him. Operative words being may and be...

Why is that?  Jalen Hurts was the starter at Alabama before the great and wonderful Tua appeared. I think he opens up the draft to get a day 1 starting QB AND Chase Young. Is Jalen Hurts a Joe Burrow? No. But Jalen Hurts will be a huge step up from Andy Dalton...

And despite missing 3 games, Lawson is 2nd on the team in QB hits at 13 (3 behind Dunlap).
I'm fine adding another DL to the team to improve it, but I think that pick can come on Day 2 or early Day 3.

Also, absolutely no to Hurts. Dude is only mobile in the sense that he likes to run with the ball. He's not agile like Lamar Jackson though. He doesn't have much wiggle. I'd rather wait on a QB until 2021 than roll the dice on Hurts.

  So they're the same weight? Hubbard has the length needed for edge rushers. I think Lawson would be better used as an OLBer that rushes and/or uses his speed to cover TEs.


Pocket passers are becoming a thing of the past. Look at Josh Allen. He doesn't have too much wiggle but can run the ball. With the right coaching (Van Pelt) Hurts could easily become a passer first/runner second. Hurts is no Lamar Jackson, but he's got more "wiggle" than you give him credit for.


You probably have your Joe Burrow goggles on and that's fine. A lot on here do. Maybe he's the answer, maybe not. I'm just trying to get as much Day 1 starting talent out of the draft as possible because MB sure as hell isn't going to do any wheeling and dealing to help...
