We can't go into next season with Walker and Corral as our options at QB - that's suicide. I agree with not reaching if you don't like these QBs, but Maye could very easily be the next overhyped Freshman / Sophmore that flames out when it matters.

He’s not. He’s the best QB prospect in college football this year and will be the focus of many NFL tank jobs next year.

To be fair I've only seen him once, which was live at Hard Rock Stadium and he should have thrown 4 INTs.

I'm sure he's brill though.

Let me watch the rest of the season to see how the rest of the QBs shape up. I mean, Stroud today vs. 1-7 Northwestern isn't exactly looking like a surefire All-Pro.

 

It would have been hard for John ELway to look good in those conditions.

You watched one of his worst games in his first year as a college starting QB. I think it says something that one of his worst performances still racked up over 360 total yards, 2 TDs and 2 INTs.
 

He’ll have his learning moments as a young QB. With that said, I think he’s over 30TDs now with only 3 INTs.

Step one is to get the right coaching staff so they can pick their guy. Everyone thought Lawrence was a pro ready, can’t miss QB coming out of Clemson. Obviously he is still young, but he is not performing up to expectations so far. And Doug Peterson is an outstanding offense guy….

Zach Wilson also not doing great. Who knows about Trey Lance but so far not too good. 
I think a lot of these QBs success is tied into having the right coaches that can build a system around their strengths. Josh Allen fell into the Bills and they surrounded him with great coaching. Same with Tavares Jackson. Of course they have the talent but you also need coaching and be put in the right situation.

There aren't a whole lot of excuses for Lance. He went to a stable franchise, with a quality staff in place, and got to sit on the sidelines behind an adequate starter instead of being pushed out on the field day 1. He just might be a bust, but he had such a small sample size of college games on the resume that I can see why it may be a shot and a miss for the Niners

the narrative with stroud in nfl circles is absolutely going to be he found a way to take care of business in the rain, definitely leaning on him showcasing a portion of his game he doesn’t usually utilize 

i honestly think this will probably help his stock

Yeah they wanted to keep the offense on the ground so he actually ran a little too. Can’t argue with the results.

Not a bad point, but go back and watch Stroud's other games. He doesn't handle pressure well at all. He's not used to it since he almost always has the more talented team around him. He also gets happy feet if his first read isn't there a lot of times.

Young seems to be the only QB in this class worth a top ten pick if you're willing to take the chance on his size.

Corral was ALWAYS a reach (as a long term starter for fans to bank on not where he was drafted, bad wording choice on my part). He can compete in camp and may surprise us but we need to take a QB in the first as long as one of the good ones is left.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
