Who is your day 3 Qb?

I think Canales and Morgan should be "allowed" by Tepper to grab a project/long term backup/safety net qb since most day 3 guys are gambles anyway and Dalton probably doesn't have much dawg left. Who do people like? 49ers took Purdy one year after Lance, and honestly we should have been drafting day 3 qb's at least every other year since 2015, I think we only grabbed Will Grier and Corral in between Cam and Bryce so that's 2 in like 11-12 years or so?

Interesting, wonder if he would be a gadget guy project jack of all trades. Dunno much about him  

Looks like an explosive runner. The highlight clips have him hurdling defenders too. Not sure how he translates at the next level.

Diamond in the rough? Because maybe Canales should get a guy he think he can develop since he's supposedly a qb whisperer?


When was the last time a later round QB developed while spending years on the bench?

If you want to be technical Kirk Cousins who was a day 3 pick after Washington took RG3 in the first round. Although I don't get your whole spending years on the bench thing and why that matters. Most day 3 picks are gambles and we need another qb at very least for practice squad/scout team

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
