Future QB

[Coachmarkos]

If the team continues to win some games, which they should with the schedule the way it is. Whether they make the playoffs or not...

We're looking at a mid-round pick. Maybe late/middle. Rosen will be long gone. I don't think Darnold will come out, but if he does, he'll be gone too.
Josh Allen will be gone by then, as well.
I don't think Mayfield will be a good pro quarterback. But I thought the same about Russel Wilson, so I could be off there.


I think the Bolts are better off looking at one of those 3rd-5th round guys that are always there. Gamble? Yes. As we saw with Peterman yesterday. (although he could end up being ok?)

And PR isn't going anywhere, I don't think. He still gets paid good money, and is under contract. We just got Cardale before the season, so I'm thinking they will go with those two guys next year.

So I think we're better off looking at who could be in the draft the following year for a QB.

I'm with the line of thinking of Strengthening the D-tackle or the Oline in the first couple rounds.

What you want is for him to be a Brees type and fall to the 2nd because of his size.

Mayfield to me is a slightly bigger and more athletic Brees with the fire and competitiveness of Rivers. Would love to see the Chargers draft him, even if it is in the first round.

That little punk demonstration last game makes me wonder if he is mature enough to be a QB in the NFL.

Im on his train as well. Hes just got something about him i like. I agree with Rich his actions last game were pretty bad. But he's a fiery competitor. Its when he does his Manziel money fingers that he sort of concerns me. I wouldn't be doing anything that kid did. lol But hes an extremely talented player who can move. Not a running QB but if watch what Wentz does under pressure with his legs i think he can do those things for us. In fact he sort of reminds me of Wentz just 4 inches shorter. Similar game. Active moving in the pocket. A sort of slinger arm motion. Laser balls across his chest. Good touch on deep balls. Able to turn something out of nothing.

Probably a combo of Wentz and Danger Russ.

You hope for a Brees or Wilson type for a ceiling. And i think his floor is maybe a Kirk Cousins type.

In college football news: coach Lincoln Riley is disciplining QB Baker Mayfield, who won't start vs. West Virginia and won't be a captain. He will, however, play.

Mayfield's immaturity concerns me. A lot. I don't think I'd use a first rounder on him.

[Steve]

His maturity is a problem,but the bigger issue to me is that he holds the ball too long and doesn't read defenses well (or didn't). I haven't watched him lately, but when I saw him last year, he didn't project well in the NFL, IMHO.

[richpjr]

Maybe Rivers isn't quite done yet...

[blueman]

Yah, he put in a fucking clinic today.

[Boltx]

He was great today but I still stand by my point that his better days are behind him and we currently don't have a viable prospect on the roster.

His long ball to Benjamin looked terrible it was under thrown and wobbly a good throw that is a touchdown

Yep, he was throwing while rolling out, something we all know is not his strong point.

This Stidham kid from Auburn is legit.
