When was the last time an Oregon QB actually pulled off a legit great NFL QB season before Justin Herbert? That kind of thinking will cause you to lose out on a great prospect.

Not saying a QB from any school can’t be great. 

but I wouldn’t call Bama a QB factory for the NFL.  It’s been endless JAGs, Okays and busts for a long time.

Bryce young's size scares me but you can deny his talent and his production. I'd prefer Will Levis or CJ Stroud though because after 2 weeks of seeing baker's passes get knocked down at the LOS. Also, can we please someway somehow get a pass catching TE. 

Is Levi’s that good? I see people mock him high yet I just don’t see what is so great about him…. Im scared of drafting Ohio state QBs

B/R Gridiron on Twitter: "Mac Jones and Jalen Hurts share the field  tonight. That 2018 Alabama QB room is forever legendary.  https://t.co/BgiS3RtgzP" / Twitter

don't get hung up on my use of wording. the tide is obviously changing.

That's what I'm saying though. You might miss out on the ONE good QB prospect from a certain school all because you lumped them all together. That would be like the Panthers passing on Herbert (if he fell to us) because "when was the last time Oregon produced a good NFL QB?". And actually, that was the mindset around here about Herbert.

I'm probably completely wrong but Will Levis reminds me of Mathew Stafford with a little bit less arm strength.

I don’t watch much college football but what little I’ve seen and looking at his stats I just don’t see what makes him a top 3 qb of this class… also Bryce Young being 6’0 and not even 200 pounds worries me, assuming that’s correct. Then again how good is young considering the talent around him?

Each QB in this class has weaknesses like Young's size, Stroud's footwork and being an Ohio State QB and Levis's accuracy consistency. While I don't think there'll be a unanimous number 1 QB this year I'd have to give the edge to Young due to his experience and the recent trend of Alabama QB's doing well in the pro's. I think that going against Alabama's defense every day in practice is an advantage that isn't talked about enough.

Or just go with a DE, Will Anderson?

Get off the Bryce Young train.

He is great for college. Not for the NFL. 2 entirely different styles of game/QB.

The defenses in the NFL are easily built to stop or slow the Bryce Young's. If the QB cannot win and control games in the final 4 minutes, they will not be a championship tier QB prospect in the NFL. An NFL QB must be a game manager and a cerebral on field coach that is prepared to execute a 4 minute offense with a high degree of success. The athletic ability, arm strength, and speed are just extras. You won't have an offense in the NFL that will regularly blow out teams or put up 40 plus points in a game. Especially, in the playoffs.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
