I will give you that getting rid of Hyde after using a pick to get him was a waste.
The QB move was not (and I'm betting after Big Ben went down Pit was regretting sending him off)

Where is Tanner Lee playing currently, btw?
Not even on a PS squad for any team?

You know jack about [BLEEP] boy. Sit down and be quiet lol

Tanner Lee is awful, that’s not the point.

Right your point is that somehow that 5th round pick is going to drastically change our roster for the better more than Dobbs would

You don't know that. Many 5th rounders last less than 3 seasons or are PS fodder for their careers.
Using late round picks to try and salvage a season isn't a bad move. (The bad move was not holding on to Hyde after using said capital)
And with the QB room, Minshew could have stunk it up and been 0-4 in his first 4 starts and we'd want to have another option this year.

You are (more than likely) very alone in your whining of the "misuse" of this pick

What happens to Dobbs, he goes on IR with a phantom injury and becomes a camp body next year.

“Drastically change our roster for the better”. Hmm, don’t recall saying that. If we were 0-4 in Minshews starts I’d still rather have the pick than Dobbs. As a pattern, I don’t want to give up draft capital, whatever it may be, if it isn’t getting us closer to the ultimate goal of winning a super bowl. A third string QB isn’t. It reeks of a front office doing whatever it takes to stay borderline competitive to save their jobs. Same with the Hyde trade. As a fan, my expectations are higher. Just my opinion, don’t really care if you don’t agree or if I’m “very alone”. I’m not looking for some majority vote just stating my opinion.  This front office has made good decisions and bad ones. I think this was a bad one.

Most likely!

If we are in the situation of deciding on a 3rd stringer, the season is over, especially with this roster. You can have your mediocre goals I’d rather save draft capital and build a sustained winning culture around here. You and your boy Dobbs can laugh at me all you want but yes, I’d still rather have Tanner Lee and a fifth round pick. Same with the Hyde trade. Sorry but the front office does make mistakes and these are two examples. You can argue but you’d be wrong. Haha haha laugh it up!

Complete waste of a pick. Like the guy was gonna win us any games.

Which QB would have been better for a 5th round pick to back up an unknown 6th round pick when Foles got injured?  How many 5th round picks have actually been good enough to help the team?  Last I checked, the last 5th round pick worth much of anything was Josh Scobee in 2004.  A case might have been made for Telvin Smith picked in 2014, but he quit.  So just how valuable is a 5th round pick?

There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.

I say keep him cause jags have really really bad luck with players getting injuryed,and lots of times to it seems to be key players on the team.

snowwolf titans owner in madden.

note titans owner means im undeafted againest them. 

Trade him back to Pittsburg for a 4th LOL!

Dobbs isn't anything special. Keep the pick and go sign someone off the street like Kessler. You're going to lose either way, I'd rather be losing with the 5th round pick than without it.

Yeah, odds are your 5th round pick is likely going to be cut in a season or two. But there is always the chnace you'll get lucky.

Desmond King, George Kittle, DJ Reader, Tyreek Hill are just a few really, really good 5th round picks over the past couple years.

And hell, the Seahawks just traded a 5th for an actual solid player in Quandre Diggs. That's what winning franchise do with draft picks.

Hyde was a stupid trade. Dobbs is a young QB with a bunch of impressive preseason performances under his belt. Again, this is a guy who would be starting right now for the Steelers had Mason Rudolph not been sitting there much later than they--

Know what? That second joke. You don't get it.

Did you watch Dobbs in the preseason? He was terrible. He was 18 of 33 with 0 touchdowns and 2 Interceptions. He was erratic and reckless, which is why the Steelers drafted Rudolph. He just failed to progress from the time they drafted him. We got hosed on that deal! When Rudolph was out with a concussion, they brought a guy in off the street to start for them against the Chargers, in a real game. Devlin led them to a victory with better stats than Dobbs had all preseason.

Watch out! If you disagree with him he might start telling really complicated jokes! He’s very witty.

He killed it last year in the preseason

Given Foles current injury and history of injuries coupled with Minshew's knee injury in Denver and groin injury that cropped up two weeks ago they'll more than likely keep him until next year. But yeah, as most have cited already. Seems like another hasty decision to throw a 5th RD pick away. They did it with Kessler. They did it with Hyde.

Maybe Coughlin hates the 5th RD?

This is an interesting point. It appears Caldwell has set the 5th round as the highest round he'll go for a player that would only serve their purposes for the remainder of the season. Perhaps the thought is that if you get a decent season out of a 5th round pick, that's good enough and anything more is frosting on the cake.

Then again, Caldwell will tend to get several good years out of his 5th rounders, so that logic doesn't really cut the mustard.


As it relates, a few teams still carry three QBs. Not counting the Saints who have a 3rd QB who also plays as a TE or the Chiefs who just activated Sudfeld with Mahomes injured, several teams are keeping three QBs this season including the Steelers, Ravens, Bengals, Raiders, Chargers, Giants, Eagles, Redskins, Lions, Panthers and  49ers. That's over 1/3rd of the league.

The thing about the fifth rounder trades is that you have to get value. 

They needed a RB really badly when they got Hyde but they didn't use or keep him around enough to get value. 
That was a fail. 

With Dobbs - it was again driven by an immediate need due to injury - and if they still rate him highly at year's end and keep him into next season he could become a long term back-up/ developmental prospect. Especially if they trade Foles ahead of the deadline in 2020 or prior to 2021.

He still has a chance to be worthy of the traded pick IMO. If he's jettisoned before next September, it's another fail.

Shall we go down the list of all 5th round picks in the last say, 5 years, and see how many are still even rostered much less the stars you named?

Talk about narratives haha what a dolt.
Never ceases to amaze me how many of you fools come on here spewing your knowledge only to be proven to know little to nothing of the subject in which you speak on.

Haha, you think you proved something? What? You think I’m unaware of who’s been picked in that round of the draft? You are good at making baseless assumptions, I’ll give you that.
