If Stafford want to play for 3 more years, I’m totally on board

I'm also of the belief that if Stafford went into this off season allowed to fish for other offers like he did last offseason the offers would be way higher than they were last year.

Matthew Stafford has earned the right to have NEITHER of the 2026 1st Round picks used on a Quarterback. This is reliant of course on a tacit agreement between player and team that he plans to play AT LEAST 2 more seasons after this one. 3 kicks at can (all in) 2025-2027 Seasons at the end of Active Hall of Famers Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams careers, with of course burgeoning Hall of Famer and current Best Receiver in Football Puka Nacua.

Earned the right for the Rams to not have a succession plan? In what world does that make sense?

As i went on to state, only makes sense if he's playing 2-3 more years. If we Draft a Quarterback in Round 1 this Draft thats fine. They BETTER be right about him though. If they Draft a QB for the SAKE of Drafting one and dont hit thats awful.

They need a succession plan and the longer a guy sits, the more he learns from Stafford.
Take a guy in the 1st round, you've got the 5th year to fall back on.

I'm now at the point where i am giving Matthew 3 for 150 and am not Drafting a Quarterback in '26.

Putting those 2 picks into Offensive Line Reinforcement. If he is PROTECTED he is ELITE.

Take 3 more kicks at the can w Stafford, Puka, Davante, Kyren, Ferguson and that Defense and others.

Can't believe I'm saying this holding those two 1st Rounders with a 37 year old QB but........

I'd be fine with this strategy with one caveat. As Merlin states above, "when you are in those twilight QB years, the end can come suddenly and unexpectedly."

For this reason, I would focus on moving down with one of the 1st-round picks, aiming to acquire 2027 draft capital. They need to be armed with additional draft capital every year until they find the QBotF.

Agreed 100%
I will say that a QB fortunate enough to learn from Stafford/McVay for a year or 2 will be a much more prepared for success QB than any QB being drafted that year

Completely agree, and im hearing that 2027 (led by Arch) is the better QB crop than 2026 anyway.

Since the Cowboys are in the business of trading away high picks maybe we can trade Byron Young for their 2, 1sts next year, lol. They got their DTs, Clark and Williams, CBs, ILB, and just need a 15+ sack edge rusher. I think Jerry has onset dementia and might just do it. With 4 1st rounders we would get any QB McVay wants. Not really being too serious here by the way but wouldn't it be great?

That OL is one of the worst I've ever watched. I agree with others would love this kid in the 1st just to see McVay gameplan for him.

Worse than Cal’s when Goff played there? I haven’t watched a lick. Just asking.

Rated last in the SEC and bottom 5 in the power conferences. With a QB as athletic and mobile as Sellers, and he does have his faults, he's been sacked as many times already this season as he was all of last year. And the team fired their OC. It's not pretty watching them block.

Yeah that line has nullified his strengths. He hasn't handled pressure well at all, but there's been so much that no QB is going to handle that well.

I hate the way Nico throws. He’s a 6’6 guy whose arm angle for throws is like he’s 5’6. Learn to throw right and utilize the height to your advantage.

An occasional side arm when scrambling or the situation presents that as an opportunity is fine. Not 100% of the time.
 
If QB is still not an urgent need next season, we should use the Falcon's pick to get a stud Tackle.

Stud tackle, trade our 1st for a 2027 first and a 2026 third (or 4th), take a CB with our second pick.

I'd like to see them take a flyer on somebody like Altmeyer in the later rounds.

As it stands now the picks are:

1st (Atl)
1st
2nd
3rd
(no 4th)
5th (Tenn, should be near the top of the 5th)
5th
6th (Houston)
6th
7th (Baltimore)
7th (DRob comp)
