I'm not much of a college football fan, so I want to ask some of the more informed posters here this question.  If Matt Corral came out this year, where would he rank among the QBs in the draft?

Probably 4th-5th round.

This is a weak class but not nearly as weak as the 2022 class.

imo . . . about the same as last year.  All the concerns from last year would still be there.  Can he process the whole field?  Can he be a more polished player from the pocket?

I'd put him somewhere between 5th and 10th QB in this draft.  I like him better than Anthony Richardson but not as well as Hendon Hooker.  Which is not a popular opinion, but Hooker and Corral both have a lot more history of production in college than Richardson. 

I like to see college QB's with multiple successful years as the starter.  I think it gives you a better read on them.  I also like to see improvement over those years.  That lets me know that perhaps there is a higher ceiling.

I would like to see what Corral under Frank Reich's tutelage in our new offense. I don't believe any QB was going to flourish under Matt Rhule's leadership.

Bridgewater is never gong to be great, but he played better in Denver in 2021 season as starter than he did in his 2020 season in Carolina. He had a career high in TD passes and the 2nd highest QB rating of his career with the Broncos in 2021. Mayfield completion percentage and QB rating improved when he joined the Rams in the middle of the 2022 season. I think even their most avid haters will agree their tenure in Carolina would have gone much better under a better coaching staff.

Coaching makes a huge difference when it comes to QB play. The difference between 2021 Trevor Lawrence and 2022 Trevor Lawrence is largely attributable to one thing: the change in coaching from Urban Meyer to Doug Pederson. 

I don't think Corral is as bad as he looked in preseason. I've seen BAMA fans make post about how they were glad to see him leave Ole Miss because the defense had a hard time playing against him. Chris Simms thought he was the best QB in last year's class. I want to see how he does in a Frank Reich offense.

would also be nice to see Corral and anyone else we draft get real work in camp 

that was another big issue with having all these bad and washed up QBs on the roster last year.  They dominated all the camp work.

People are shitting on Corral all because of one preseason game that Rhule had him out there with nobody that even made the team let alone practice squad. Before that there was so much hope he’d be the diamond in the rough. Give the guy a shot before saying anything dumb. Especially when you’ve never even played a down yourself.

These would be my tiers, no particular Oder within each

T1: Young, Stroud

T2: AR, Levis, Pickett

T3: Hooker, McKee

T4: Willis, Ridder, Corral, Hall, Haener, Howell, Tune

T5: Purdy & the rest

Id put him ahead of McKee and Hooker

he’s much young than Hooker and he does have better overall tools than McKee.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'm not to sure it's a solid argument to try to estimate what he will do this season, BUT he's had a solid 3 years in the league. Here's his numbers compared to Jewell's for the same time period. I can see the logic of getting a starting MLB for a (at best) WR4. AT, XL and Tmac are certainly our top 3 guys IN 2025. Certainly worth pondering.

      Training camp just started and it's already starting... https://www.facebook.com/reel/24277303321904901/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v LOL No one believes you and you have fan pages sharing this with a "Play him or trade him" headline. Oh wee mayne. This is why no front offices wanted any part of this.

      Honestly, it only makes sense if you're trying to chase being the best bad team you can be this year. The number one question we need answered this season is whether or not Bryce is our long-term franchise QB. Trading away a second year WR who was second on the team in catch percentage, first in yards per target, and who clearly outplayed your 1st round pick for a likely one year rental fill in LB is exactly the type of short sighted desperation moves that has made us the worst franchise in the league under Tepper. We gotta stop making these types of moves and just focus on building a good organization and a good roster. Lloyd is a JAG LB another bad team and awful defense is wavering on and a couple of Panthers fans are salivating over him. Oof. We just need to be patient and wait. Definitely make some calls around the league to teams deep at LB and see if there's an opportunity to add one for a late round pick. Definitely shop the waiver wire hard. The reality is that LB is almost certainly going to be a weakness for us this year. We weren't fixing our entire roster in one off-season and we're not fixing an overall weak positional group in late July.  If you trade for Lloyd LB is still a weakness and you've given up a young promising WR who could potentially help you answer the question of whether or not Bryce is that guy. That's bad football business.
