It depends on how long our other QBs are out for. He may even need to come in and just finish a game. They made this new rule after watching the Niners struggle with it. 

I get the new rule but what you are not getting is that he has to be on the final 53 for it to take effect.  Going to to the 3rd qb in a real game is rare as fug and I think Reich is old school enough to know this.   In closing I really really doubt this staff wants to burn a roster spot to just try and develop corral and maybe just maybe have to use in him a clusterfug of a game if the 2 qbs ahead of him go down.  I could be wrong but we will see once the final cuts are announced.

 

IMO what probably happens is we either trade him for pennies on the dollar or we try to stash him on the PS

but they still count toward your 53 man roster, so essentially he would be taking a space of someone who would in theory participate in a game on the 53

You can also call up 2 practice squad players a week at any other position, the emergency QB has to be on the 53. Some teams will probably gamble with some backup/special teams guys on the practice squad in order to keep the 3 qbs on the 53

The "if we're down to QB3 who cares the season is over anyway" logic is fine from the perspective of a fan. But if it happens it will be in large part due to the oline which means someone making the decisions is going to be facing some serious heat. And honestly knowing how these things go for the Panthers I wouldn't be surprised if Corral ends up on a contender and looks competent when needed. Then we'll see the heel turn and people saying why did we trade/cut him we're so stupid. It's predictable.

We would get so little for him it would be better to keep him as the 3rd emergency QB. He is getting familiar with our system and still has potential IMO. 

He was drafted to a team where it made sense for him to be. He now exists on a team where it really doesn’t.  I mean, from Matt’s perspective.  If I was him I would have nicely asked the front office to trade me.   I’d want to go somewhere with an unstable QB position and where it likely could get unstable soon.

maybe but how many times in a nfl game do you see a team needing a 3rd qb?

 

For the record I said the second he got drafted he should be qb#2 on this team and go from there, what rhule and co did to him was criminal, now the timing is just not in his favor

I understand that 53 man roster rule, but he would be replacing a player that wouldn’t even be dressing out on game day. The emergency QB doesn’t count against the active game day players.

      He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes

      Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.

      I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
