I think Levis and Young is the clear top tier, then Stroud, then Richardson. Teams are panicking last minute, particularly the Colts who very much wanted to take Levis at 4. Don't you just love the draft season!

I think it's Stroud and Young by a mile, but it only takes one team to fall in love with a player.  Especially a QB.  

Maybe Houston won't trade with the Colts due to being division rivals so the Colts are talking to us to jump them?  Just another random theory...

Draft season is one of my favorites!

If the Colts offer next year's 1st to move from 4 to 1, plus 2nd rounder or so, I think it would hard to say no, even if the Panthers were to end up with Stroud instead of Young and Levis

I'm just speculating, but I think Houston decided to take Levis at 2 and the Colts are weighing options, because their owner is in deeply love with Will

Maybe we really like AR and Stroud.  Let's say the Colts trade with us for next year's first plus some.  They draft Levis, Houston takes Young, which leaves us with AR or Stroud at 4 depending on what happens at 3.  So we would recoup our next year's first and maybe more making the trade DJ and a future 2nd to move up to 4 and get our QB.

-This is all for nothing as we are probably staying at 1 and drafting Young, but at least it is something interesting to talk about.  

Young is my QB1 but I think I'd be fine to drop back to 4 and settle on Stroud/AR if it means landing a haul of draft capital.

I still probably have Stroud as my top, but Young is a clear 2 or 1B.  I honestly will be happy with any of the top 4 with this staff we have.  At the end of the day it will be Young at 1 though.

And what if Young goes on to be a star and our QB flounders?

This is just the laziest possible take. This scenario applies with whichever QB we ultimately land on. What if we take Young at 1 and AR goes to the moon? At the end of the day this thing is a crapshoot, and we aren't paid the millions to decide which player is going to be best.

Not saying it's going to happen  but  i said that Indy is the wildcard to  it all because Houston is right below us. It would allow Carolina  to get draft compensation  and a Qb. All it takes is 1 phone call from Indy and Houston hear of it and we have some movement. Gms always get antsy on draft week and the hype drives egos. We will see but I could definitely  see Indy n Houston battling it out to get to 1....  I was told no way  by some but anything is possible

      Alejandro Avila: Are We Really About To Hand Offensive Rookie Of The Year To An 'Okay' Receiver?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Adam Thielen had 1000 yards with rookie Bryce. I guess he's using that as comparison. Just kidding. Calm down.

      We definitely improved from 2024 to 2025, to me the results were less important than the roster in that regard. It's better. It's still a very bad roster but continuing to be better is the goal. The changes we are talking about at QB are about spending LESS resources. Not picking up Bryce's 5th is a big potential savings. Significantly better QB's have been had in recent years for half or less than what Bryce will get in 2026. To say nothing of an extension(the ridiculous subject of this thread) which would cripple roster building by saddling it with a bloated QB contract for an awful QB. The price for Bryce, I mean who is even making that argument anymore? I don't think you are seeing anyone in this thread discussing trading up to #1 for Mendoza.  We are talking about cheap backup and FA QB's and Day 2 and 3 draft guys. That is literally tied to the idea of roster building. IMPROVE at QB while you build the roster so that we can actually potentially attract a franchise QB or when you make that big move up(SF for Lance) that your roster is so good that the impact is largely negated.  After all, improving over Bryce is an extremely low bar to hit. Let's not assume that standing pat would have resulted in a sudden spurge in good decision making. Don't forget who was making all those roster calls at the time. Bryce or not, we would have fuged it up in some way because we had idiots at the helm. We may still yet. Also, it's easy to say we can't get in the habit of switching QB's like that but there are also plenty of situations where that flip was the correct decision. Richardson to Jones, Rosen to Murray, Fields to Williams, Lance to Purdy(technically some nuance to this), etc. There is no real danger of Bryce leaving and suddenly becoming an elite QB. We all do know this, no matter how big of a Bryce stan you may be. His ceiling is middling game manager. So there isn't some crazy risk of moving on.

      Honestly. You can see it on the field. Bryce will literally skip a pass on the ground rather than throw a contested catch to XL. Especially when it's one where XL would have to fight back to the ball. Coker is actually really good at that. Coker lacks real NFL speed (not a small thing), but he maxes out in most other categories.
