I like Minshew as a Taylor Heinicke type of reliable backup, but does he have the mentoring/knowledge to bring along a rookie?

What do you mean?  He has been a starter and a backup without any issues.  Seems like a laid back, team first guy.  As far as "mentoring" we should have a staff to help do that and develop the QB.  He is Hurts backup now and Hurts seems to be developing just fine.

if the goal is to grow a good mustache then minshew would be a great mentor. as a QB mentor ...i don't know about that.

Imagine us drafting your favorite QB in this draft.  Now imagine that same rookie QB with a fantastic mustache.  Can you honestly say he is not better with a mustache???  I didn't think so...

Hurts was also not a rookie when the Eagles traded for Minshew.  I don't hate the idea, but I think an older, more established  guy would fit the bill better though.

Minshew would also already know the system if we land the Eagles OC.  That has to be a plus right?

Yes, no doubt there.  Again, If we had an established guy already at QB1, I'd be all in for Minshew being our backup.  I'm jut not sure about him being the best guy to bring along a rookie QB.  He kinda seems like he's his own dude...if that makes any sense; I'm not getting a mentoring vibe going on with Minshew.

He’s also actually been good regardless of system. The Jags should have rolled with him and gave him weapons to throw to vs going for Lawrence. I get it, he was a sixth rounder. But if Minshew was a first rounder and put up the same numbers he already has folks would be looking at him like a good QB.

TBH it's way too early to say and it depends on who our HC is. I know for sure Texas will pick Stroud. He's by far the best of the group even if he's surrounded by 1st round picks. After that it's pick your weakness at this point. 

I dont know man we still have a long way to go.  They may fall in love with the upside of levis or the overall ready made game of young.  I would take stroud #1 but he hasnt done a ton to distance himself as the #1.

he's got some of the worst luck with injuries in football. i just don't see how that couldn't carry over into the NFL. otherwise i like him, but those injuries....i'd be fine letting someone else take that risk.

And to add, he wasn't straight fire before this year, injuries aside. Amazing year in 2022, all the throws and size. 1 year in a pac 12 with 0 defense to be found and he lights it up. I get the hype, like you, not buying round one. He could be legit but the injury flags,age flag, PAC 12 conference flag, and previous meh to ugh years even with the injuries, I'm not betting on that in the 1st if I'm a GM on the hot seat. Now 2nd round I'm close to pulling the trigger, but in the  3rd I'll bite depending on the rest of the QB board.

He's the most complete. Has the size and ability. It's still early though and things could change. I will say this though. You can't change Young's size and you can't make the UK QB make better decisions. Stroud has everything except elite speed which no top QB has.

I thought before the season they were talking about how stroud is a good athlete and Day is going to run him more.  I guess that was just lip service

I mean they are all athletic. He's not a statue but hes not as fast as Fields or anywhere near where Lamar Jackson is.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
