I wonder if Verse will be the first $50 mil. edge rusher? We've got fun times to look forward to with our young D stars needing extensions soon.

He’s more accomplished than Bennett, and let’s face it, as a third string QB that makes Bennett below average. So, O’Connell is still the better QB at this point, unless you are one of those fans that thinks preseason trumps actual starts.Let’s face it he’s average

Yep
And if he has 17-20 sacks this year, it might be worth tagging him for 1 last go of it
He’ll be 31 at the end of the year, when do Edge guys start slowing down?

I liked him coming out last year, was hoping he could add some physicality to the Rams RB room, but of course they went with a clone of Williams.

O’Connell is playing for his 4 the different head coach and 5th different OC in 2 years with the Raiders. I’d think under McVay he’d be way further along.
Along the lines of what you said, O’Connell had a 4 td game against the Chargers in an actual regular season game. Far more impressive than against pre-season

I think they're very similar, limited physically as QB's but smart guys. Career backups in the end but that's just my 2 pesos.

I'm not even on Bennett's side but comparing O'Connell's starting stats to Bennett's which are non existent makes no sense whatsoever. If Bennett ever gets an opportunity to start a few games, then a fair comparison could be made. Bennett has been here since Stafford has so no way was he ever going to get consideration especially once Jimmy G was brought in. O'Connell is fucking trash as a starter honestly. Would McVay have helped there? Who knows. There's a reason why old man Carroll went after Geno real quick. Just glad that Bennett has shown some real progress vs last year and that we also don't have O'Connell as one of our QBs. Regardless I wouldn't want either to start for us as we'd be doomed lol

5th rounder seems a bit steep for that tiny handed dude but whatever. Two AFC teams so what do I care.

I remember when there was a ton of buzz that he would take the starting QB role from Goff after the draft. That aged like milk in the sun.

I knew he was gonna get dealt.
Now what? Two rookies backing up Flacco. Looks like sanders just moved up to 3rd string!
