Go get Will Levis

[jrry32]

Garapolo is a better starting option than Levis. If Stafford gets injured I’d rather have Garapolo to back him up.

Jimmy is turning 34 years old. We need to be looking to the future. Plus, he's a free agent and might get offers from teams looking for a potential starter.

As long as they have Stafford, they are in win now mode. But, I agree that looking to the future is a good idea.

However, I don’t think Levis is any good or will ever be any good.

Levis has looked like hot garbage everytime I watched him.

I'm interested to see what Bennett could do after a year with the Rams. I would still pick up another QB that with some high upside that has been on a crappy team.

There are going to be no perfect options as a long term option.
Ive brought up a couple possibilities and was promptly shit on.
So it goes.
There is a 1000 miles between a Rypin and a Jimmy G.
So, if you want a good backup you are going to pay.

He may not be. But if it only costs a 6th or 7th round pick, it's worth seeing for ourselves. The alternative is taking a QB in the late 3rd or 4th round. I'm open to that too, but it costs you more draft compensation.

That's how I see it too.
I dont understand the fascination with a failed project when they can just draft one of their own and have them cheap for 4 years

OK but do you mean that in a Good Way, or in a Bad Way?

 

[Flatlyner]

Hendon Hooker?
Was that a Joe Milton mirage?

What are some others? I guess Zach Wilson fits here too.

I doubt the Lions are looking to move Hooker since he is a good backup to Goff, but I'd certainly have interest in acquiring him.

I also like the idea of Wilson. He has actually played well in the league at times and has all the tools, but needs a good mentor.

If Stafford does decide to retire, I'm calling Jacksonville for sure. They would rake us over the coals though for sure.

I'd rather see them sign Zack Wilson in free agency.

Trade? I wouldn't mind if they called New England for Joe Milton.

I like Zack, with McVay he could shine

Wilson would be crazy to pass up an opportunity to come here and learn for a year. And the year in Denver, under Payton, may have helped him as well. He might be a steal as he grows up mentally.

Tools + Recent Redemptions. Levis has first round tools. And we just watched guys like Baker Mayfield, Geno Smith, and Sam Darnold turn their careers around.

It’s very easy to carry 3 QBs now. Why wouldn’t you be mining for a gem?

I will admit I’d rather have Levis rather than Bennett as a third tbh. But as a direct backup. No thankyou .

And correct if I’m wrong but Bennett is on the practice squad. I’d think a dumb ass team would pick Levis off our PS and try and make him a direct backup.
