What does this even mean?

IMHO it is not who is “worthy” the point is how many portal QBs are better than Emory-Nickel-Anderson? There isn’t a Cam Ward this year but I bet we could find someone better than what we have. This should be the whole point.

Maybe right now we can serve all of us better if we admit that they are going with Emory regardless.

How are adding Nickel in with Emory and Judd, dudes still in high school, lol.

Sure but I never made a statement saying we shouldn’t either. I just voiced a scenario where maybe Ewers if he entered didn’t make sense is all. I’d be happy with Ewers but understand if it’s not in the cards and if we do get him, I know he ain’t Cam either.

I understand we don't want to pay Cam Ward level money for Ewers

Mendoza is a fine option at this point

There were some bigger boom/bust options but I think it was better not to get too aggressive for some of them. Mateer was the guy to get aggressive but we just didn’t have enough to offer

We can’t go into the season Emory-Nickel-Judd. You just can’t

Dawson for whatever reason doesn’t get much credit here but I’m personally a big fan. He could help Mendoza a lot. Obvious concern being losing basically every weapon from last year

Agreed but we will be releasing our Kinzhal next year (hopefully 🤞🏻).

Yeah I think Dawson has shown some good consistency the two years he’s been here. A change in QBs but George and X had similar production even with TVD flailing.

Horton and Colbie Young had almost identical production

We had almost identical rushing yard production the last two years even though we swapped a lot of backs (Fletcher being the main holdover)

It’s not a huge sample size but these aren’t NFL first round picks as far as receivers and backs so I am optimistic we can be in the ballpark

I think with ewers (if he enters), beck(if he enters), or mendoza - we're a top 10 offense again

With emory I feel like we can be a top 20-25 offense but more centered on the run

It’s tough when you factor the NIL. I don’t know specifics but if you could say get Mendoza and a safety and a nickel for the price of Ewers…feels like a no brainer to me. But I’m way outside the loop on stuff like that I do like the focus on defense so far though

i agree - I guess I'm looking through the lens of already getting poyser, Brantley, Blay, and likely lucas -

a few more depth adds, another WR sure - but if getting cam ward taught us anything then it's having the best QB in the game gives you a chance to win no matter what else is happening

The only reason Mendoza is being considered is he went to Columbus and his dad knows Mario.

Nepotism.

He’s not in the same stratosphere as Ewers, Beck or Mateer. And I doubt he’s being considered at Georgia. They’re just telling you that on this site to try to sell you a lemon.

Mendoza is average at best and we’re not winning more than 7 games with that guy.

Some of these story lines lack sense. If Beck is going to stick around why would he leave Georgia? And Georgia is not forcing Beck out to get Mendoza. None of that adds up.

***** is undefeated ... he's dating one of the Cavenders.

No doubt. Without Cam the only thing we can do is try and find better balance. I like what we’ve done so far

The thing that threw me off about Mendoza at first was someone saying there was an offer of 7 figures for him. I know a lot of rumors happen and bull**** but I didnt want to see us go a bidding route for someone like him when we have so many issues

We will see what happens as the playoffs go along though
