    This is old school Fritz; draft a QB who is NFL ready, and win a SB while he's on the cheap in his rookie deal. Embrace the future ))

      I think though that maybe teams are coming back around to the old way: let a guy sit for at least his first year, maybe two. Too many of the hotshots that you've invested your future into get thrown out there are get their confidence permanently damaged or get gun-shy after all the sacks they take cuz they see only chaos on the field, given the speed of the NFL game.

        The year In college that Love had some talent around him he looked really good. The next year, after a lot of graduation losses on the online and wr, he wasn't as good. Seemed to try and force things. Not surprising, but hopefully a good lesson that he took to heart.
        My point was more regarding Darnold hasn't done anything yet, but they will pay him elite money for a year. I would offer him the 3 year deal for same money. If he doesn't sign it I would let him play this season and if he is lights out Franchise him while you work out a deal. To pay him the 5th year option based on his career so far is insane.

          I watched three full games of Love. He throws great off platform from the pocket. He’s inaccurate on the run. The offseason work Love is doing, they show a lot of him throwing on the run. That’s good. He needs to become consistent on the run. He’s a very high upside player. Has elite arm and movement. Just needs to bring it all together.

            You got links of him working out?

              Good to see you around, Ras.

              Hope all is well Fritz.

                I see videos drop on Twitter. A couple weeks ago they had one of him rolling both directions and throwing darts. I was glad to see him practicing the throwing on the move. If there are three main throwing platforms, on platform, off platform from the pocket and on the move, I thought he was really strong in two of the three. Even though he’s an athlete, I thought his accuracy on the move was his biggest deficiency.

                    That’s a good comp. I’d like to see him get one more year of development and then throw him in the fire.

                      I don't see this. Last year, who were the 1st rounders (I can't remember...lol)

                      I remember Joe Burrow, Tou T, and Justin Herbert all playing a lot. I think there were two others but I can't remember who they were. QB's, well most of them, are playing a lot more pro sets and I think are more NFL ready....well...ours isn't...but many are.

                        Not sure I've heard anybody comp him with Josh Allen.

                          Not really a good comp. More like Drew Lock than Josh Allen (physically and arm talent wise, hopefully not mentally).

                            I think Love is more athletic than Allen. And I really like Allen.

                              I don't think he is. Allen is kind of a freak. Practically the same 40m, vertical, and broad jumps, but Allen had him beat comfortably in the shuttle and 3 cone. Not to mention height, weight, and power. Allen's RAS score was 9.67. Love's RAS was 8.46. Allen also has a stronger arm than just about everybody. It's the reason Allen went top 10 and Love went late 1st. Love had him beat on accuracy coming out of college, but Allen has made incredible gains in accuracy his first few years in the NFL.

                                Fair enough.

                                Good information.

                                Thanks!

                                I saw a bit on Allen, he's worked crazy hard in the off-season.
