Trey Lance will realistically be within reach

I’ve said it a couple times already but if we draft him I’d sit him for a season or two, let teddy play out his contract and mentor, build up the oline and give him a chance to work on the finer points of the qb position. In everything I’ve watched he rarely had to throw the ball into tight windows because he literally never had to. NDSU is just too dominant in that division. 

His arm is crazy. Throws 50 yard tds effortlessly and can run and scramble and throw the ball from different angles but he needs nfl coaching in practices and preseason games until we put him out there. I wouldn’t rush him.

I doubt it. The only reason a few people are saying this is because of the conference and relatively small, albeit extremely successful body of work.

And the previous QBs to come out from that conference and competition level: Carson Wentz and Josh Allen. This is the first real good job Allen as done and Wentz already looks like his NFL career as a starter might not be much longer. But he also helped Philly win a Super Bowl and looked like an MVP. 
 

Boom or bust.

He is remiscent of a prime Rodgers/Mcholmes/Luck.... this guy has a very high ceiling.

All these QBs are boom or bust.  Except maybe Manning.  Lance may be worth a shot but will need to see him go through the predraft process.

Lance as a top 10 pick right now seems really expensive.  Reminds me of Jordan Love without all the ints.

Agree with RumGones comments he is definitely going to need lots of time to develop.

One guy I am keeping an eye on this Kyle Trask at Florida.  He looked incredible average early last year but he is ascending.  Not flashy but solid and accurate.  Wouldn’t mind the Florida TE either.  Pitts can play.

Gator fan here. Pitts should be the first TE off the board. Just an absolute stud. Kyle has been what we’ve been missing in Florida for years. A guy who can complete passes and not kill us every week. He should be a day 2 kid as of now but he could also blossom in his final year. He never started in high school.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
