If we don't draft a qb in the next draft, the fan base is likely to riot.  

You mean the huddle will do it’s usual we didn’t draft a QB this year thing.
 

I swear, most of these “fans” only care about the draft. And judging by the success rate for recent 1st round QB’s I’ll take a hard pass.

Personally, I would draft a qb this year.  Yeah, the bust potential is high, but you have to take the risk, because the difficulty level of trying to win without a good qb is very very high.  Only two teams in the last 20 years or so have won a sb without a good qb (Broncos and Eagles).  

With a draftee and Corral in camp, we have two players with at least some potential to starter and be good.  Of course, the odds are still against us, but with the right coach, who knows.

If not drafting in the first round, what would be your ideal route out of the QB doldrums?

I have no clue. We haven’t had and still do not have any clear route to a solid generational starting QB. Of course who Tepper decides on as coach will play a huge roll. I’m just not one to say let’s tank everything for the first pick. Which the chances of the pick being a good QB is in the single digits.

Fair enough.

The bust has been what we’ve been dealing with Rhule for the past few years. He’s been so to speak betting his mortgage on a 2-7. I don’t watch college so I don’t know the potential of these quarterbacks. I’m more so speaking to the incessant nature of the huddle. Even in prime Cam years everyone’s just want a new shiny QB each year.

In some ways, there is an advantage to judging a college football qb without being a fan of college football.  Gives one a bit more objectivity.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
