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

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.

    • Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
    • I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
