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.

      Yeah, Bryce has to put that a little deeper. But XL can't allow the pick there. Gotta become the DB when you're undercut like that.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
