What’s your 2023 QB big board (including Corral)

I'm implying that its usually a better idea to gamble on the guy with more dynamic traits than higher floor/pro readiness. Being able to run gives you a higher floor until you are able to to read defenses and develop the other side of the game. at the very least day 1 Willis gave you the read option threat that could be counted on day 1. Corrals strengths need to be honned and even now we still dont know if they translate.

You post implied that Malik > Corral because one will be starting and one isn’t. Which lacks any context on their situations. 
 

And Corral can run as well, and did so quite successfully in the SEC (although his frame, unlike Willis, means you don’t want to run Corral as much).

 

I liked Willis, just not as a 1st rounder. In the 2nd/3rd he was worth the gamble for your stated reasons. 
 

I basically just wanted anyone but Pickett to be honest 😂

you should want a dual threat. our most successful qbs have been dual threats as has been the case with most of the league. read option is dominate in the league right now and pocket passers arent doing so great. 

A dual threat QB had never won the Superbowl and probably never will.

 

I want a mobile QB ala Mahomes, Steve Young, Russ, Allen, Staubach etc.

QB types worst to best

Running QB = below average passer elite runner.

Dual threat above average rusher above average passer.

Pocket Passer elite passer below average runner

Mobile QB elite passer average to above average runner.

He plays QB and is being looked at to do this same because of his arm and size. I’m sure you are doing the whole QBs that run are running backs thing… clever. 

No. That’s not what I’m doing at all. I had to listen to idiots say that about Cam his whole career.

 

I’m not doing a “last time I checked, quarterbacks throw” ignorant statement. 
 

Richardsons footwork, throwing motion, accuracy, and overall consistency as a passer are elementary at this point. He’s years away, if it’s even possible to fix him at this point. 
 

Everyone loves a Josh Allen, but he is the exception. Fixing muscle memory is hard. 
 

By “floor” I’m saying worst case, because he’s such an athlete, if he flops as a QB, he can play another position on his 2nd team and someone will pay him to do it.

Allen isn't Dual Threat.

Cam was OK. He wasn't a good enough passer. He couldn't win solely from the pocket.

Allen is 100% a dual threat QB and anyone saying otherwise is wrong.

He’s third among QB’s in rushing yards since 2020… if you want to create some absurd rushing number to define what a dual threat QB is then go ahead… it’ll just prove to everyone that you were wrong and are extending the finish line.

Since 2020

Jackson - 2.2K rushing yards

Murray - 1.5k rushing yards

Allen - 1.4k rushing yards

Hurts - 1.4k rushing yards


Jackson is the closest thing that we’ve seen to a Michael Vick type of player but that player is described as a unicorn… not a dual threat QB. A dual threat QB is exactly what guys like Allen and Hurts are.

Allen can beat you solely from the pocket. He doesn't have to run to win.

Neither does Mahomes. 

They are both mobile QBs.

A duel threat has to run to win.

Mike Vick was not dual threat. He was a running QB

That’s not the definition of a dual threat QB… that’s some made of mindset by yourself.

A quick Google will give you a definition… “In gridiron football, a dual-threat quarterback, also known as a running quarterback, is a quarterback (QB) who possesses the skills and physique to run with the ball if necessary.”

Making up some ridiculous definition to fit your narrative doesn’t help your argument as there isn’t a QB in the NFL that has to run… Lamar doesn’t have the accuracy that someone like Mahomes has but Lamar has better physical traits that he can use to help him win… so why wouldn’t he use them…

THERE’S NOT A SINGLE QB IN THE NFL THAT HAS TO RUN TO WIN.

    • 100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.
    • While I would like to see Nikishkin play, I definitely wouldn't want it to be for Chatty who is a lockdown defender like Slavin
    • 2 teams with sub 2% odds winning it within a span of less than 20 years. Quite unbelievable.
