Wouldn't mind Saints going after him, I think he's at least serviceable has starting experience and better than what we got. And would be cheap


Browning won games with the bengals bc he was throwing to 2 wr 1s and 1 wr 2. Can’t expect a similar result throwing to a wr2 and a bunch of wr 4s

Brooks still hurt. He might not even make it back this season

I think Shough will end up being a better QB but he’s not a better athlete than Rattler.


Rattler:

If you don't think Rattler has a cannon then you don't know ball.


I googled the player plus arm strength and these are the first statements that popped up.

Rattler is “not considered to have an "elite" arm like some other quarterbacks, his arm strength is more than adequate for the NFL.”

“Tyler Shough is known for his strong arm and possesses what is described as elite arm strength.”

Says who? You?


Someone already shared the RAS comparison earlier that shows why Shough is a much better athlete. As far as arm talent, it is pretty obviously Shough and it isn’t close. If you can’t see that then you don’t know ball and I can’t help you. Compare Shough and Rattler’s highlight tapes. Shough flashes throws that Rattler will never be able to make. It doesn’t necessary make Shough a better qb than Rattler but Shough has way more talent which is why he was drafted in the 2nd and Rattler in the 5th.

Both of these statements are incorrect. That is where it is coming from.
Conventional wisdom would say Collins/Achane/Bowers

This is the obvious clear answer. Don’t overthink it.

One drive with a FG starting from the 50?


I mean it was obvious before the game was even played. The reason why Shough was drafted as a second rounder is because he has elite arm talent. We just don’t know if he can put the rest of it together but looked good on his first drive.

7 is a good spot this year. I am good with any of Bijan, Gibbs, CMC, saquon, Chase, Jetts, or ceedee in no particular order.

Also note that the Sophmore slump is a real thing. Rookie QBs take the league by storm and put a year of tape out and DCs start scheming on how to stop them in year 2. It happens alot

re: Need advice on keepers

Posted by Mpd31 on 7/19/25 at 12:21 pm to
I would keep Chase, DH, and Bowers. You have a strong core. Daniels isn’t as good of value in 4th round and qb is less important.

re: What if Shough is awesome?

Posted by Mpd31 on 7/12/25 at 2:17 pm to
So I’m with the small majority that is very optimistic about Shough. Guy has legit arm talent. I’m tired of hearing the 27 year old rookie narrative. Guess what he can be our starting qb for over decade if he pans out. He reminds me Justin Herbert. Dude can absolutely sling it. You have seen what nfl coaching can do with talent and I believe in Moore.
I think Can probably plays both end and olb. Early in camp probably having him start at olb due to it being the more difficult to learn out of the 2.

Is that best suited for RG or LG


It makes no difference. DTs will move around to find the best mismatch. Only difference is that on the left side you are still on the blind side of a right handed qb so you would prefer a strong pass blocker there. However, he is a big guy and pass tech is much different for guard than tackle so we will see. It also depends on the players feel and footwork for left or right. Penning has played both so should be fine. Players who have played just one side most of there career sometimes struggle initially on the other side for change in stance and footwork
quote:

Here are the last 10 No. 40 picks in the NFL Draft: 2025: Tyler Shough, QB, Louisville 2024: Cooper Dejean, DB, Iowa 2023: (Pick 40 did not go to a player in the 2023 draft due to a trade) 2022: Boye Mafe, DE, Washington 2021: Richie Grant, DB, Wake Forest 2020: Ross Blacklock, OT, TCU 2019: Trayvon Mullen, CB, TCU 2018: Courtland Sutton, WR, Central Oklahoma 2017: Curtis Samuel, WR, Ohio State


So like two players that are above average in Cooper DeJean and Courtland Sutton.
Teams spend multiple firsts in order to try to find their guy. It is relatively common these days that teams will trade 2 or 3 first round picks to move up to get their guy. There is no sure things and you take your shots when you can. You have a whole year to evaluate Shough. If you are in a position next year to draft a guy that you believe is better then you take them.

re: Shough’s pro comp

He reminds me of Herbert honestly. Tall qb with crazy arm talent and can sling it all over the field. He hits some wow throws.

His problem is that he panics bad with pressure. Probably due to extensive injury history. He is scared to get hit. Other than injury durability that is his biggest red flag that I’m not sure he can overcome. This is also the key factor on why the video compares him to Carr.

Good Comp - Justin Herbert
Bad Comp - Paxton Lynch

going DT when we just added a guy via trade and 2 guys recently drafted at DT, I felt we could have been better served looking at an edge rusher there...


Understand that we are moving to a 3-4 defense. They called Broughton a defensive end and looks the part of a prototype 3-4 end. We need depth among that front. Young is versatile but the more depth we have at DE the more we can keep him on the edge where he is better served and the only player we have that has really played that position more than just in sub packages. I doubt their was an edge available that they really liked at that spot or they would have picked him,

Nose - Godchaux, Saunders, Boyd
DE - Jordan, Bresee, Broughton, Shepard, Ridgeway
Edge - Young, Granderson, Foskey, Diggs
Feel like we were eying the receiver from Arkansas. Lions traded up right in front of us to take him
I think Allen would be a really good signing for us for a 1 year deal. He would be huge in helping Shough develop in year 1. Experienced guy who knows how to get open and help his qb out.

I can see Loomis finding some money to take a shot at Amari Cooper with Moore’s ties to him in Dallas. Would be more expensive and need a longer term deal but would be a big upgrade.
