Looks like early part of the first round possibly for us (if the team keeps playing decent.) Maybe pick 6-10

How do you all feel about Cam Ward in the first round, or pass on a QB untill the next draft, built up the defense in this draft. 

Looks like a guy Canales can coach up. Would he be worth a shot?

I didn't watch him at Wash ST.  So it's just looking at stats on paper.  They haven't played anyone yet this year worth a hoot.  I'm a bit torn on his on field demeanor.  

I need to see Cam Ward play against some tougher teams first.  Or tougher defenses.  Really need them to  win the ACC (catch a Clemson) and go into the playoffs.  

I don't want to draft a QB at this point (first round at least).  I'm cool with a flyer in the 3rd or something.  I'd rather add another discount vet that can do the job.  Built the team around the QB right now.

I’ve really enjoyed watching this kid play.  His pocket presence is on another level, so calm with the pocket closing in.  He looks to have all the physical you could hope for; size, strength, speed, height.  He is my QB1 right now, I really like the fact that he has face adversity in his life and hasn’t been given anything, started at a smaller school and worked his way up to be the starting QB of Miami

IDK if I really like him as a Round 1 talent. Don't get me wrong, this doesn't have the look of a stellar draft class so it's very likely he will end up as a top 20 pick, I am just not sure I would want him as a day 1 starter.

I will have to catch some more Miami games this year to see.

His Washington State play is probably a better gauge, TBH. Miami is pretty stacked right now and they haven't really played anyone. But he has been great this year, obviously.

Looks very talented, to me, we should go BPA and get a qb later. Build this team up as much as possible and plan for another franchise guy the year after. 

Agreed. The roster is bad. Don't throw another rookie at a bad team. Make the team good and figure out QB. I realize this is counter to conventional wisdom but having a bad overall football team is a LOT for any rookie/young QB to have to deal with.

Sanders is the best QB in this draft. All these other QBs have elite Oline play. Put Sanders behind those Oline and he's leading the nation in passing.

 

Saying that I doubt we go QB. Especially if we end up winning more games than expected. My dream has always been drafting Travis Hunter. If we can't get him Tmac the WR from Arizona would also be nice.

He looked very good in the Pac 12 although I did notice a little tendency to make throws you just won't be able to make at the NFL. Seems very confident in his arm, sometimes to a fault. 

As always, it will depend on his development. Not a guy I would be upset to end up with. Probably a guy I would be upset to see immediately start on the 2025 Panthers. 

If you can give me 1-2 years of Dalton with him riding the pine and getting up to speed, I am all in.

Miami has elite OL play? Didn’t Colorado go all in on OL this offseason?

I am actually an outlier in that I am very wary of Hunter.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By frankw · Posted

      We've literally seen him hop around the pocket to survey the field in multiple occurrences. Defenses have this on tape. Cam and QB's like him built the way he was height and strength wise could get by on those natural gifts in their prime. Bryce Young is unequivocally going to have to go above and beyond with his footwork in order to carve out not just a long career but an elite career worthy of a top overall draft selection. We should be able to wholeheartedly agree with one another on that. Intermediate sideline throws without placing the ball out of bounds where the receiver has to contort themselves or make an absurd acrobatic catch for it to be a completion. And yes developing a better chemistry in the deep passing game with his receivers to avoid miscues. Both areas will need to see improvement if the young offense is to develop the way we hope in 2025. And we don't necessarily need to be winning mind you. But development of the supporting cast requires this from Bryce. We have invested a ton of capital in the offensive line. We've invested heavily in WR. We've invested in our backfield. We've invested in TE. We've got a young up and coming offensive minded head coach. The expectation should be for our redzone efficiency to improve significantly. That is not just on Bryce Young. But at the end of the day it will always begin and end with him more often than not. It's always been that way and that's just the nature of the position in this league. And not for nothing but before we drafted Bryce Young nobody was going around here saying we need elite play across the board and top shelf coaching for him to be effective. His biggest selling point was his ability to succeed off script and make something out of nothing. We're certainly going to have to see that come to fruition. Now we wait.

      Honestly, for me, I actually don't care all that much about being the 1st overall pick and him living up to that selection. It's the trade we made to go get him that he has to live up to for me.   You can't be even just an average starting QB after a trade like that, because if that's all we're getting out of it, we could have kept going with journeyman type of QB's or taken a shot on a Jalen Milroe type in the 2nd to get similar play but then have kept Moore and all those other draft picks to build around them.
