Supposing we do draft a quarterback in Round One...

He shouldn't. We have the coaching staff to win games now, we can address some holes in FA and roll out with a QB who will be better than Teddy just by the very fact he will be willing to push the ball down the field. Teddy is a very solid backup though.

1. Whats the state of the OL? Does something change?  New GM that locks Moton do we add another OL in rd 2-3?

If the OL doesnt look Worse, id potentially start him later on in the season.  Im not starting Day 1 but week 6-8?  Maybe inject him in.

Because I dont want him David Carr'd. 

And if Moton, Miller and Okung leave in FA. Thats exactly what will happen.

Or, God forbid, Joe Burrow'd.

Anyone who wants to start him immediately should probably touch on how we prevent that from happening.

I prefer the wait a year route, but I mean its up to the coaches to evaluate whether he can start right away or not. Look no further than the Chargers, they planned to let Herbert sit behind Tyrod Taylor. It is unfortunate what happened to Taylor, but Herbert is obviously ready as a rookie.

    • Ravens mixing it up with a random Mark Andrew tush push last year isn't a similar situation.  Lamar has run QB sneaks his entire career.  And often instead of a traditional sneak will even employ a 4th and 1 direct snap to Lamar simply because of how athletic he is (which even Cam did a lot of) and let him pick his own holes.  
    • height being an issue doesn't just mean batted balls.  You could argue Bryce minimizes batted balls by adopting other poor habits such as his jump passing and leaving the pocket.   As I said, there are plays you can point to where he clearly was blind to parts of the field/players....which kills plays and opportunity. Which actually means some of the shorter/hot throws when things break down are where his vision gets blocked (and he had below average production all around the line of scrimmage).   has he figured it out? I mean, he improved off a trainwreck start.  But Bryce Young since arriving in the league (even while figuring it out)......doesn't generate much offensive production vs his peers.  I just think his ceiling is low.   And that's not in the grand scheme what you want in the NFL.  I think he can develop into a serviceable QB, that will largely always been a middle of the pack or low end starter.   
    • People make a lot of noise about his footwork and I think it is overblown. Whether he takes 3 steps backwards or 5 small steps doesn't matter as long as he ends up at the right depth and is in sync with  the receiver regarding timing. If he does that consistently who cares as long as he has a firm stable base as he delivers the ball. Which he does need to work on. However even that is somewhat overblown given that often QBs have to throw off balance or from different arm angles to fit the ball around defenders. He is considered very accurate so apparently it isn't hurting him that much.
