Will be

1. Haskins

2a. Lock

2b. Grier

 

Neither Lock or Grier are remotely close to being worth our 1st and will not be available for our 2nd.

 

And really no one else after is worth our 2nd.

 

The 2020 draft will be stacked at QBs.  May have to wait until then now

I’ll be honest, some people do strange things. I just can’t imagine going back if I was going to go top 5ish in the draft. So many things can happen. Sure, insurance but maybe I just wouldn’t want to risk it.

Its odd

Because he is about a Lock as the top QB in this draft

While next years is projected to be a elite group where he'll be the 4th-5th at best

I’m on the Nick Foles train.

get the man.

Foles has never produced outside of Philadelphia. He didn't look all that great filling in for Wentz to start the year. I have no explanation for what happens to the man when it gets to November and December, but I wouldn't count on seeing that performance should be sign elsewhere.

He’s a great guy, and his story last year is one of the all time best in sports. That being said, he has never done anything outside of Philly and you’d be a fool to think he can be a franchise QB. Ask the Rams and Chiefs

Andrew Luck passed on being the first overall pick one year ( to us ) to be the first overall pick next year. It happens.

This will throw a wrench in the top 10 unless teams fall in love with Drew Lock. I still think Haskins would be the first QB off the board probably to Jax but no one else will probably pull the QB trigger unless someone trades up.

The Jags have good talent at most positions so they have fewer needs.  They have a coach and GM on  the hotseat and they have NO QB.  They will be aggressive and move up.  Drew Lock is good and will draw a team like Denver toward the middle of the top 10 to get him before the Giants. If not,  I think Lock will be wearing Giant blue.

Grier will be a wild card--I see his stock improving the closer we get to the draft.  A team like Cincinnati, Denver, Miami could get spooked once Lock goes--Grier is the last of the top QBs.  I doubt he creeps into the top 10. 

This is a terrible year to need a QB.  Hope we are not one of those teams.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
