I think Duggan will be a good late rd pick. He got pummeled in the championship game. But 1 game shouldnt be the deciding factor, especially when your going up against a team that could beat half the NFL. I think he has the mobility and skills and especially if we go Quentin in the first.

Not that the Senior bowl is guage but he was noted for having a good Senior Bowl run.  Duggan is one of those guys that is going to fall in the 2nd round and end up being a steal.  He just gives me that winner's mentality that some show and some don't.

The one article I read had him at #10.  Two solid seasons at Houston.  

It's interesting to me what Reich sees in the upcoming prospects.  Is there a QB that is being overlooked because he come from a small school or had a bad record last year.

There are so many different ways to approach this offseason and the QB position that I change what I want us to do every week. I'm mostly interested in seeing how he evaluates where we are as a team. If he thinks we're ready to seriously compete, I think we move for a specific quarterback. If he thinks we're a few years away, might be a bit more passive. It's going to be a fun few months

We have a good defense and anytime you can put a quality defense on the field you have a good chance of making the playoffs.  That said, Reich has to be 100% certain he can get our rookie to win games in his first season.  We all know that isn't an easy task.  

I think 2023 QB situation is not going to end well regardless of who we draft and when.  I just don't see one of these rookies or a career backup coming in and being a difference maker.

I hope I am wrong but I'm not betting the store.

Tell that to all the guys that jumped on the Stroud bandwagon after the Georgia game.

People were on his “bandwagon” well well before then.

Its crazy how quickly we forget people were talking him up this time last year the same way we are talking about Drake and Caleb Today

I'm pretty high on Jaren Hall. He has some raw talent and his intangibles seem to be off the charts. Main concern seems to be age and injury history. 

Clayton Tune is the one I think could be a real stud though. He's big, not too old (23 now, 24 by draft), mobile, and is damn good at football. Smaller college, not great competition. I think once you get past that and just look at his talent and production alone, he's a baller. I'm not saying he should be a first rounder, but some of his film flashes that kind of talent. SMU game is crazy good film imo. 

Clayton Tune - Houston QB #3 vs SMU (2022)

I like Tune

I think you have to go to the Bill Parcells QB thoughts.

https://www.49erswebzone.com/articles/165172-brock-purdy-parcells-rules/ (first hit in google!)

https://thedraftnetwork.com/2022-nfl-draft-qb-class-bill-parcells-rules/ (context on KP versus Golden Corral)

So there's that.  I think if you're drafting a late QB flyer - get them with those traits to have the best shot at hitting on the late round QB.

Funny enough, we might see more QBs plucked late hoping to hit on the Brock Purdy jackpot.  The reality is that Purdy played well in Shanahan's offense, which is one of the most QB friendly in the entire league.  QBs are so incredibly important.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
