I don't like Willis but the college list jives otherwise 1-Corral 2-Strong 3-Howell 4-Ridder 5-Willis...but wouldn't necessarily consider all 1st round.  Corral, Strong, yes.  Maybe Howell and Ridder.

The vet/FA list is scary bad/if not even less appealing than the often panned draft class.  There's next to nothing there.

Rather than kill the QB o' the Week, why not work on getting an oline first?

Well I'm sure we'd still be able to get an OL or two if we acquire the like of a Nick Foles.  I can't see a single one of the FA QBs getting north of 7 mil/year

What about Kenny Pickett?

Meh, I'm not saying I'm some guru but I personally don't see it.  He's got the tools and good in the moment skills when forced into pressure but I don't see much more than a Case Keenum type.  Could be wrong but for not having the accuracy of Strong or Howell (who both have great arms), the quickness of a Ridder or Corral, he needs to be perfect and is coming from a quick throw, 1st read offense so there will be a lot of adjustment.  

If we're talking pure QB skills, Strong would be a top 1st rounder most drafts (knee injury is the concern), if we're talking overall potential, then gotta look at Corral.

    • Scheme and fit matter definitely, but if you are an NFL QB (especially a talented one) there will be flashes and some signs. I think the ones that get their careers broken are in inadequate offenses (bad weapons, bad OL, no running game etc…) and a constant turnover of staff can do it. Basically what the Bears did with Fields and what we have done with Bryce so far. 
    • I mean when Rhule was on the hot seat and finally got fired, we got pumped and Wilks truly brought some culture back to the team for a brief window. Reich came in and when he got canned there was no hope or excitement, we actually got worse and we are still kinda there until proven otherwise. Some are basically trying to sell this as BY's actual rookie year as well which doesn't exactly draw up much enthusiasm and tempers expectations whether that was their intention or not. 
    • Yes, but Bryce Young is what amplifies that concern for me for a super green HC and OC.   it’s all and marriages by Tepper IMO.  Canales and the new OC probably would have a better time getting their O running with a vet QB that is a natural fit.   again, I’m not arguing Canales and Morgan should be catering to Bryce at this point.  Just pointing out how pointless drafting Bryce looks at this stage.  And I don’t disagree you either can play or can’t and the O is irrelevant at this level.   I mean fit matters at this level.  Everyone is too talented.  Fit makes or breaks careers.
