Do you think the front office will and should draft a quarterback this draft?
If you think they will or should what round do you think they will select a quarterback?

Knowing how Dan and Bruce operate, I expect them to draft someone within the first 3 rounds. I wouldn't be shocked if they took someone in the first round since they have no inclination to sign KC to a long term deal.
I don't think any of these QB's are worthy of being 1st rounders. Tribisky? Give me a break. He couldn't beat out a running QB and had one good year. All of them are projects. I think if Kaaya gets with the right coach he could be a really good QB. He may be the only one who actually got under center and ran a pro offense.

No, he will not play this year and it is a weak QB draft.

not saying should draft a QB..but don't be surprised if a few of those guys end up being very good pro QB's...

If Trubisky is there at 17, it is tempting.. If we don't draft a QB, u would think KC will get a long deal

I guess it depends on whether or not they feel they have something in Sudfeld and/or how long they think McCoy will be around. He's 30 years old, I know it is not old for a QB, but who knows.
I doubt they'd draft someone in the first three rounds. Too many needs elsewhere to spend on a QB. Unless someone really good drops in the draft.

caveat emptor:
I am genuinely interested in what people think about the current QB situation in relation to the draft.
It is my nature to ask questions, hopefully there can be discussion.

To me the unsettled nature of Kirk's long term contract is the key factor.
I think if a long term contract was possible they would have done it by now.
I can't imagine a worse scenario then to lose Kirk next year and start brand new at QB in 2018.

No, he will not play this year and it is a weak QB draft.What if they aren't able to get a long term deal done with Kirk? What happens at QB then?

I wouldn't be shocked if they took someone in the first round since they have no inclination to sign KC to a long term deal.This is close to what I think. Based on where they are now with Kirk's contract it seems smart for the FO to have viable contingency plans at the QB position.
