Here’s where I’m coming from…
AOC is doing great. His numbers are right there with the top of the league after three starts. He’s new and will need time to develop, of course…. but he showed he can hang with a top three defense.
Benefits here, he’s cheap. We have a great rookie contract to spend cap money elsewhere to build up the team around him. Bolster the OLine, pump up the defense, this is the way.
In 3 starts, he has 600 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs. He’s benefiting a lot from a rejuvenated run game.
He’s been serviceable, I don’t see where he’s been “great”.
AOC looks bad bruh
We won’t make it anywhere with him nor Jimmy
We still need an actual QB
He almost threw the game away with a pick 6 at the end of the last game, and his numbers are not very good. He’s not turning the ball over, but he’s not doing a great job of moving the ball either over the course of his 3 games. He’s got 7 more to make the case, but so far he sure looks like a 4th rounder who has been forced into the starting role to me.
He’s the present. At best, I’d like for him to win out this year and start next year with a rookie first round QB sitting behind him
He’s the now. Why can’t that be enough?
We’re going to look back at the 2023 draft class and see Aidan as the best QB.
No he’s not
My favorite post so far was the one showing AOC with a higher QBR(or passer rating, w/e) than all the other QBs the Jets have made look bad, magomes, Allen, etc
He’s the starting QB for the Raiders. So, I’ll support him and the team. In the off-season, if the team is able to improve in any position, it should.
He can’t throw it deep, man
1st round - best defensive player available, preferably a DT, or another CB. Day 1 starter.
I think in the 2nd, there will be several Qb’s available still in a pretty deep draft that have the potential to be a franchise QB. If it makes sense there, I think they could definitely draft a QB to compete with AOC heading into next season.
But that’s only if we can take a solid defensive player round 1.
3rd round is a great round for interior help on the Oline, may be able to snag a pretty good tackle there as well.
If they keep playing well and inspired, they have plenty of options heading into the draft. Curious to see if Champ gets the final say as opposed to AP (if they are kept as GM/HC obviously).
The Defense is the future. Raiders are drafting a QB this.coming draft. They have to. Or sign one. Brian Hoyer ain’t gonna cut it.
How much dead cap space is the release of Jimmy G gonna cost the Raiders?
Let’s see how we all feel in two weeks
