    The players on the field and the coach were never tanking. The front office just made it really tough on their ability to win games! They never wernt trying, id argue bungals trying way less than fish!

      Players and coaches don't tank. And I don't think the front office wants to lose every game They just wanted to tear the roster down and start from scratch.


      And I don't think they should want a QB anyway. Rebuild the roster first then get the QB.

        Pro teams don't take...they get paid tons of money to be professionals...most of them have pride and take their craft very seriously...this "tanking" theory is bullshit propaganda and myths that are started and perpetuated on various forums, websites, and message boards alike...not to mention it's also a false narrative that gets overplayed and exaggerated by the media.

            Dont disagree with your thought but If they think there one they love in this draft they love they gotta take him, don’t have to play him tho!! Even if they don’t love one they should still use one their picks on one cause you gotta figure that position out!!! I think teams should draft a qb almost every year in later rounds, even if they have one!!!

              Spot on.

              i don’t think there is any reason to get super excited for tua, Herbert and burrows this draft.

                that's why I wrote it as "Tanking"

                2dabank and the others have it 100%, the front office just made it harder for the fish to win, making their trades and cutting whomever
                getting the payroll down, building up their picks for 2020 & 2021. With the right moves & picks this team could have a future

                    No doubt. I think they might have finally found a hoody disciple who has what it takes to be a good coach in this league. The fact they playing the bearded clown at qb proves they have no interest trying to lose games. Be easy to play Rosen and say they were seeing what they had and everyone would understand.

                          Nobody wants a lefty QB

                          You'd have to flip your whole offensive scheme, get a right tackle, deal w RBs who've never taken a lefty hand off, wrs who e never caught a lefty spiral, etc

                          Drafting Tua, w his injuries to boot, should be a franchise killer

                            I don’t think any GM is sold they want to build their team around Tua, nor would I be. There lot of good qb prospects in this draft, I wouldn’t necessarily be looking to take 1 with my 1st pick in the draft, depends who available when they on clock.

                                Is Burrow & Tua both coming out?

                                If so, they better start tanking again if they aren't

                                  I wouldn’t take either as my 1st choice. Tua injury concerns and Burrow as good he been still a one year starter for which I would never draft w a 1st round pick cause history not on their side. He could be one the few exceptions but when you have so many holes to fill prob not wise to take a guy who still have learning to do, unless they willing to be smart and let him sit for a year.,, then I could see it making sense.

                                  I don’t love the Oregon kid but he the most NFL ready and I think safest of the QBs.

                                    Too hard to tank when players/coaches have things built into their contract which the public really doesnt know. (yards, tds, catches, wins, ect) They playin for those $$ bonus”s.
