Who should we be looking at outside the "top 4" QB candidates?

Tanner McKee 

Jaylen Daniels 

Penix is a toss up, want to see how he keeps it up through the season but he's on track.

Those 3 are quality guys with great upside, and most importantly NFL level arms which for some reason gets lost on a lot of people when that's most critical at the end of the day.  Daniels is the one to watch IMO.  

I want to love Ward.  But I think he should stay another year.  He's young and has mad potential.

The rest are a bit of toss-ups/developmental.  I get why people may like some like Rogers, J Hall, etc. but they're a bit of stretches.

At this point we don’t need value.  We need a top prospect.   

He's the most capable of anyone I've seen. 

None of the other guys have made the throws this kid made to beat Oregon. 

Go watch that game. NFL throws all over the place.

Richardson isn't even half the passer Penix is.

So aside from Young, Stroud, Levis, and Richardson who should we be talking about?

Not including Corral in this either.

Just curious who else could or should be in play.

There isn’t a “top four” there’s Young & Stroud and then after that I’d strongly recommend not taking a QB.

The answer is no one. If we want one of the top two, do what we need to get them. Drafting a QB elsewhere may be a wasted pick IMO.

Yep.  The most unrealistic thing you'll typically see are those wishing for some miraculous trade down yet we get a guy we target.  You either stay put or trade up to get a guy you target.  

Only exception to not drafting high is if they like a guy enough to trade back into Round 1 in the event we don't take one with our first overall pick.  Would also not be opposed to a double dip.  I see no other path for a QB in this draft.

That's also an option....at least not early in the first or in the first round at all. I don't think we should leave the draft without throwing a draft pick at all at QB relatively early. I think we should just keep swinging, but if we aren't completely thrilled with the choice at QB in the top 5 picks, go with a stud defensive guy and then make a move later to attempt to get a QB.

    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
