I buy into points 1 and 2,,,,,from the beginning Ballard was preaching patience and the long term aspect of this rebuild. I think he was prepared for this year to be extraordinarily bad which is why I said before that I think he was ok with Pagano being the front man for this suckage while he got his ducks in a row. I thing the Cowerd theory is way off on the Jacoby business. I think Ballard bought into chucks Tolzein love (bad on him) and didn't work on the QB position until it was clear that that was a dumpster fire too. I heard that Ballard had been scouting Jacoby for quite some time in KC which is why he was able to pull the trigger so quickly when it was clear that Scott wasn't viable. Everything else that may happen re upcoming draft is just a product of everything else vs a master plan. If his plan was to showcase Jacoby to fatten him up for trade bait he would have brought him in earlier when the poor kid had time to actually learn the system vs getting his ass handed to him when his head is buried in his armband.

Brisset is a very talented athlete. He can make all the throws he can run and probably has better physical skill than half the QBs in the league now.

He just doesn't have the mental part yet. And it's hard to learn when your only thought is don't get killed on this play over and over

If he were behind a good oline he would be much better. And he is going to need a season in the system to get a better indersatanding of it

I don't want to trade him and this next draft class is pretty deep for QBs. So his value goes down because of that. But I doubt he is going to want to be a backup for very long. Right or wrong. He will want a shot

He potentially has a good situation coming up for his career. Assuming our next HC is either offensive or can bring in a good OC that fits Luck's skills and can be tailored to our playmakers, Brisset will be in good position to learn that mental side, play in a good system that protects the QB and let's him use his strengths. He could develop into a solid starter, which is good for the team (draft picks) and for him (even bad starting QBs make lots of money). And in the meantime we have a strong backup QB when we need it.

None of this can happen with the current trash coaching staff.
