Top 10 QBs ranked nov 19 by PFF

This...scares me.

The knock on Lance is fairly simple: accuracy. Since the start of 2019, he’s had the lowest percentage of his passing attempts deemed accurate of any quarterback in this top 10 (47.1%). In his defense, his 11.5-yard average depth of target is the second deepest of anyone on this list. Those accuracy issues, however, keep us from completely buying in on him as a sure-fire franchise quarterback.

Lawrence would run Brady's system here perfectly. Literally perfectly. Like Mahomes in KC. I would 100% be all for selling the farm to get him if he won't play for the Jets. He is just so far ahead of every other QB in this class as a prospect and there are 3 other QBs who are worthy of a top 5 pick... If the opportunity is there because he snubs the Jets we need to be in on that. I doubt that happens and he most certainly just becomes a Jet but a man can dream right?

Josh Allen did a ton of work this past off season to fix his issues. The Bills got pretty lucky. Few QBs can fix their mechanics this late in life.

Yes it was. And his development has been extremely impressive, but it should be noted that Allen is a rare outlier in that regard. Most QBs who come out of college with accuracy issues don't ever get them fixed. I don't actually think it's that big of an issue with Lance and I'm a big fan of his (would 100% take him if the top 2 and Wilson were gone, though I think I prefer Wilson to him at this point), but I will say I think Lance is the most likely to bust of the top 4. All 4 are great, great prospects though and you can't go wrong with taking a shot on any of them high in this draft.

This was a bit surprising. First time I’ve heard of this. I’ve always read he is very accurate. Here’s from Jeremiah: “

  1. Accuracy: I say this all the time: Do not get caught up in completion percentage when evaluating accuracy. Lance completed nearly 67 percent of his passes, which is impressive, but the tape showed he was even more accurate than that number indicates. His ball placement is excellent. He really trusts his eyes and throws with anticipation, which allows his receivers better opportunities to run after the catch. He can layer the ball in the middle of the field (over linebackers and under safeties) and he excels on bucket throws (deep balls over the top).”

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
