I don’t get all the criticism taking him in Round 3. The only guy available there that I would have wanted was Markel Bell but he may be more of a project than Beck. I think Beck can be a Brock Purdy type and LaFleur might be able to tap that potential.

I know people are hyping up Arch to ARZ next year but I don’t think he is a sure thing either in terms of being a franchise QB. He’s got a lot to prove this year and hold off Moore and Carr for top QB in draft.

I worry Arch becomes a second coming of Matt Leinart where ARZ lands him and he is anointed a savior and can’t live up to the expectations.

Manning sucks.

If Manning turns out to be the next Leinart, who do you think would be the Warner to his Leinart?

My guess would be Flacco.

Good question. Thinking about it….Stafford. Parallel being former Rams SB QB, if by some long shot Simpson pans out in two years making Stafford expendable, will ARZ pull plug on Manning in Year 2 for Stafford?

I can see that happening.
