6' 4" 230 lbs. 25 TDs vs 6 Ints. Pro-style offense. Flying under the radar. Projected 5th round, but I bet that goes up to 3-4 by draft time.

We could draft Stanzi to develop and sign a veteran. Watch the video, but ignore the gayish qualities. Not his doing. I recommend watching a few of his interviews on You tube. He seems to have the "IT" factor. Supposedly has a high football IQ, average skills but got better every year. Leadership improved and was good as a SR.

Stanzi, a three year starter for the Hawkeyes, finished his career second all-time among Iowa signal callers with a 26-9 record. Entering the Hawkeyes bowl game earlier this week he ranked second in the Big Ten and 11th in the country in passing efficiency (160.5). He finished 2010 with 3,004 passing yards and 25 touchdowns while only throwing six interceptions.

Lacks vision, not a strong arm, bad under pressure, gets hurt a lot... I've watched alot of iowa games and he's good, but I would prefer an Andy Dalton over him.

I haven't, just going on stats and what I read and the few clips I could find. However, he is fundamentally sound from what I saw. 5th round is justified then.

There was a lot of good Stanzi/bad Stanzi back in 09 - in the first 3 quarters of Iowa games he was finding new ways to try and lose, but come the 4th quarter, the clutch switch would come on. I just wonder if he's going to go through something similar in the NFL.

Our biggest problem is the inability to spot potential at QB. If you can't spot talent, develop it, or coach it, you wil never have it.

I like stanzi alot, he is super clutch, but he has that jake delhomme thing going on where he can be god aweful or perfect depending on the day, and early in games he sucks for some reason, he also has injury problems. but he runs a pro style offense and has pretty good football iq from what i understand, could be a great 3rd round pick

NEW NAME"

Colin Kaepernick, QB, Nevada. a project, but has a good to decent arm, not real accurate, but runs 4.6 and is 6'6" tall. Led comeback to beat Boise St.

If we can't find a good QB, the best thing to do is build the cast around what we have or will sign.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
