1. I'm fully onboard with Jalen Hurts. That has been established. However, you only have a 3-year window with him to see if he can play not a 4-year window because he was a second round pick and you don't have the 5th year option. The issue that makes that problematic for me is Hurts didn't get a mega huge first-round QB bonus and so if he looks like he can play a team might buy him away. This actually accelerates the window you have to pay him that much more. If he looks good in 2021 and better in 2022 you have to sign him then because you can't let him get to free agency in a QB starved league. Think about all the teams that could be looking for a QB then... Falcons, Rams, Bucs, Packers, Seahawks, Steelers, plus all the other teams that just have shitty QB play. The window to be right on Hurts is narrow.
2. As for the controversy with Donahoe in the War Room. After hearing what Howie said what if Donahoe is just being kind of a cunt. That's a harsh way to put it but what if Donahoe is the bad guy here. The rest of the room looked excited that they got their guy. And then Howie spun it and got value for picks later associated with this move.
I am going to say Howie did pretty damn good value wise in this draft. He got out of six to 12 and then went back up to 10 to get a guy I personally would have had no issue with them taking at 6. Yes, they had to give up a third rounder to do it but we also got Miami's first rounder next year. So we gotta hope Miami sucks right. And hey the Bills are going to be good and Miami is going to have a much more difficult schedule I believe.
I don't know about the picks but on the moving around and getting value plus what appears to be some consensus in the War Room I think Howie did pretty damn good.
