Dalton is pretty durable but that does not mean he hasn't gotten injured or we shouldn't have a quality backup in place.I don't want to see us draft QB, WR or CB this year. We need O Line and I'm all for first 2 picks if we can get Wynn or Hernandez and also Price or Daniels. Our blocking is worst in NFL, but we can fix that if we address that. We also need LB's, SAfeties, D Line, and 6th and 7th round looks to have good RB's and TE's still out there to draft. Mostly we need Blocking above all, and also more tackling.
Matt Barkley?? Child please...
Is there another McCarron type in the later rounds? We definitely got a good deal/value with that pick and hopefully we can do that again in this year's draft. Otherwise we should seriously consider Fitzpatrick or some other veteran backup.
The useless today has us drafting the guy out of Virginia in like the third which I don't think has any chance of actually happening but whatever..
I don't think driskel is the answer either.. to me he is a solid qb3/developmental guy and not a good qb2...
You may not like Barkley but Lasor does. They are very happy to have Dalton, Barkley, Driskel. McCarron never did jack for this team. He got his chance to play in 2015, and he didn't do much. Last preseason Driskel looked better than McCarron. Barkley and Driskel are both probably upgrades from McCarron.
So we better get the much needed blocking and then some tackling. I know fans get all warm and fuzzy over drafting QB's and WR's every year, but this team needs BLOCKING and TACKLING. I could see adding 2 O Linemen, 2 LB's, 2 Safeties, a DT and a DE and a TE that can block and catch and 2 RBs. That's all our draft picks with no QB or WR, but we need help at these positions more. Plus as you look through the draft, their is good mid to late round talent at these positions I mentioned drafting, except O Line which we need Picks 1 and 2 because we have no run blocking or pass blocking. With blocking, Dalton plays every game hopefully. Lasor really wanted Barkley and says he fits the playbook.
