If we draft a QB, I want Carson Strong

I feel like Strong and Corral will be the best QBs from this draft when it's all said and done. 

If we go QB at 6, I want Corral.

If we trade back, I want an OL and then Strong.

Corral is a bust waiting to happen. He is not an NFL QB. Period

He hasn't played in an NFL system, but he has NFL traits - best combination of arm / accuracy / mobility in this Draft.

I just don't know how he's going to translate to an NFL offence. He rarely makes full-field reads - he's mostly successful out of the (S)RPO.

They aren't great. He also has zero mobility and is a walking injury risk. Tape's not that great either.

His tape is better than every other QBs in this Draft. What does that say for the rest of them?

His red flag to me is "how bad is that knee". Everything else about him I think "yes, I can win with him at QB in the NFL".

Both Strong and Corral just seem to have that smell about them that this draft process has not gone in their favor.  There's just a sense of off-puttance by teams with them compared to Willis, Ridder, Howell & Pickett.

Hell, I've seen more promising whispers about Jack Coan and Aqeel Glass.

That's a pretty delusional thing to say considering that plenty of scouts have said that he has elite traits. Moreover, he's played against more NFL-level competition over his career than any of them. I guess you know more than the scouts...

I don't know of any scout that has said that. He could be a good value pick on day 3, but he isn't sniffing day 1. He is largely immobile, has concerning problems with pressure, doesn't see ancillary defenders any where near a pro level, and takes some unnecessary risks with the ball.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
