We need a young developing qb on the rooster...this draft has them early, Middle and late. I’d rate the stock as an b+ for talent. Grab one if u like one after the second round

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

Of course we should draft a QB. That's a given, IMO.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

I think you wait. This is more an indictment of JGrudens future then need. This year with this trade we only have a 1st and 2nd. Next year we should gain a 3rd for compensatory. Smith is our starter for the next 2 years minimum so let's use this draft to build the team lines.

IF Gruden can't get us in the playoffs with Smith then you let him go and let the next coach draft a qb to groom.
IF Gruden gets us in the playoffs then in 2 to 3 years we draft a young qb to take over when Smith is on the final years of his deal.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

If Allen or Mayfield are there at 13 (highly unlikely) then I say yes only because Smith is 33 Y/O and father time never loses.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

I think you need to draft a QB there is a reason Alex Smith has been run out of two towns.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

There is NO way we draft a qb this year and have a mid rounder sit behind a 1st rounder again and put Alex right back into a similar situation he just got out of. We have Colt and way too many other needs to draft a QB this year now anyways.

This.

2 to 3 years seems like a good timetable to draft a QB.

next year would make sense. Colt's contract is up, and Chicago/Glennon set the market rate very high for a mediocre QB.... Colts probably playing his last year with the Skins.

From what I have heard Josh Allen was highly inaccurate during senior bowl practices. If you can't hit WRs when someone is not covering them and grossly missing the target that would be a big red flag to me.

The only QB i wanted was Baker, not just because of OU but because he's got all the tools, I bet he goes top 7 though and we cant trade up.

And a little because he's OU.

I would agree with you normally but this is a deep draft for QB's. You simply have to get someone in the 4th or 5th rounds. Maybe we trade down and get that 3rd rounder back. We have to draft a QB this year. We can find a future starter in the 3rd or 4th rounds.

Have to? I think Smith buys us a year or two before we have to.

I agree though, this could be a good class to find someone in a later round (Mike White?), but it's not dire at this point. If your guy is there in the 4th-5th, sure grab him, but if not there is no sensor in wasting a pick on a project that you don't see a lot of potential in. You can get his like that undrafted.

He also hit on several big plays during the game. I think Allen may not ever be a high % passer. But he will be a big play type of guy and would need to be in the right offense.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

A decent QB prospect always seems to slip in each draft. So, you never know - we might draft one this year. I say get the talent on board and then worry about the depth chart.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

Draft a QB in the middle rounds. Options that I see: Mason Rudolph, Lamar Jackson, or Kyle Lauletta. All of these guys can possibly be taken outside of the first round.

I'd rather roll without a QB this draft, just add help for Smith

I agree with this 100%. You have a solution for QB1 and QB2. Work the rest of the roster.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

We already have the great Colt McCoy, simply no room for another stud on the bench

i see what u did there... Hey man Colt beat Dallas!!!!

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

I think drafting a qb this year sends the absolute wrong message to Smith. We have Colt for one more year. Draft a mid round qb next year.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

And we'd basically be down to only 5 picks to help the team this coming season. We can wait.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

I wouldn't use anything better than a late round flyer on a QB this year.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

Hey, at least Colt McCoy could beat the Cowboys unlike another qb we have/had.

Re: Drafting a QB?
 

In a QB league this front office has made 0 attempt to develop a young QB behind Kirk.

Meanwhile good franchises consider drafting and developing And a #1 priority....even to the point of using top resources to make it happen even if they already have a solid starter.

This FO passed/punted on drafting and developing a QB behind Kirk and have paid a high price because of it.

Yet, it seems many fans are okay following the same plan of not addressing the need to draft and develop a QB behind the starter....smh.
