All these dudes not named Trevor have pretty substantial bust factors.  Still, gonna need one.

This is why we should get an immediate impact player at 8

I’ve been listening to many draft experts and many think of it wasn’t for Trevor, Wilson would be the clear cut number 1 pick. He’s the closest prospect I’ve seen that resembles Aaron Rodgers.

With our line I would be a bit nervous because of his frame.  If he fell to us then I would be completely fine letting him sit the entire year to learn and bulk up.  Let teddy win us 6ish games and aim for 2022 to make a serious run. 

He's the same size as Watson. If we are concerned about that we probably shouldn't trade away our ability to create a stronger line while paying a fragile framed guy 35 million a year with 40+ million cap hits.

I see too many people out here advocating for “any” QB that’s available. All well and good until you are stuck with teddy 2.0 for the next 5 years.

 

if there is a guy available that we believe IS the guy and not just “available” then we take him but looking at the QBs in this draft I think that’s only Trevor, just like cam in 2011. How do you think the jags and Titans felt about gabbert and locker.
 

I hope we don’t reach for a QB but that’s what most people on this forum seem to want....until they turn into a bust.

No thank you on Johnny Manziel 2.0.

Damn that’s who I was trying to think he reminds me of, wow I totally agree

[Moo Daeng]

Not sure I see any similarities with Manziel.

Well whoever on here said he has Rodgers similarities is down right crazy.

What he is implying is if you want Wilson. You may need to get to Miami's spot at #3. He won't be there at 8

Miami will use the "we're not sure about Tua" trap to get a team to trade up and get draft capital.  I've seen where they are committed to Tua and IMO it is only words on the street to get someone to trade up.

LOOKS GREAT ON THE FIELD  but , i dont like his face ...... he looks too much like jimmy 

[Madwolf]

Wilson is my favorite between him and Lance.

Not enamored with Mac Jones at all. He's slower than Peyton Manning, and that's a problem in today's NFL.

It’s a coin toss either bust either solid 

[Soul Rebel]

I see a lot of Baker Mayfield with Wilson. Frame, mobility and arm. I think Wilson is more accurate, but Baker had played more competitive teams than Wilson. 

Daniel Jeremiah thinks he's the real deal and compared his release and arm to Rodgers. FWIW, DJ also has not really said too many negative comments about all 4 QBs so I honestly think any of the big-4 would succeed with us. 

I would be real disappointed if we give up tons of draft assets to move up for one of these guys and then watch Lance go at 8.

Id rather have Lance and hope he will be there at 8. I think trading up for Wilson would be a bad move.
