The problem with predicting how QBs will fare is that so much of it is dependent on the systems and the talent in place. More than any other position, the QBs strengths need to be best used within certain systems. A mobile QB for example won’t benefit from a bigger but less athletic OL than a traditional pocket passer will. I think for most part any first round QB can thrive if in the right place. granted, some QBs like Jamarcus shot themselves in the foot but when you look at someone like David Carr, he could have thrived if he didn’t take 940 sacks and basically had his confidence destroyed.

That had no bearing on Murray or Trubisky a couple years back. I think scouts don’t need an extensive body of work to get an impression. Most schools these teams play are so fourth rate that they’re automatically discounted so really they’re just getting opinions formed on a handful of games at most.

I think the Foster injury was just straight up bad luck and not indicative of our conditioning programs. Although im more concerned with being cursed than poorly prepared.

ILB like Rueben rely on explosive burst from the legs to thrive. QBs, especially pocket ones like Bridgewater just need to be able to trust that they're legs wont collapse underneath them.

I'm not opposed to finding out if he can legit be a starting center so we can move Chase to guard.

Unless it keeps him out for the year then I’m not interested in comparables.

If it's gonna happen, this is the best time for it to happen. There are still a lot of fairly decent options available. Jon Bostic i'm down for. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, BRING IN KHALIL HODGE FOR A LOOK!!

The obvious decisions are restructuring Scherff, cutting one of Colt/Case and maybe Docston if Harmon shines in camp. Can't cut Moses now because his dead cap is too high and we can't really afford to get rid of the only guy on the line who managed to stay in the lineup for all 16 games. I love Doc and think he could be a great number 2 but there is a lot of potential at the WR position. Mclaurin and Harmon along with Quinn and of course Richardson. . I also really wouldn't be surprised if Reed gets cut as well. He's not going to be there for the glory years when Haskins finds his game and he's such a liability in pass protection that i'd rather just waste TE on a guy who is a block first kinda guy. Dwayne is the future, not Jordan.

Which is ok, but you don't pay a 5 game a year injury-prone swing tackle 9 million a year. I see him getting cut after next year.

I think the three positions we're going to need to focus on are CB, TE and OT Norman probably won't be back after this year and while I love the depth of our group (Stroman, Moreau, Dunbar, Moreland, Hosley), I don't think there's a true #1 "shutdown" in the group. Diggs would be a nice fit but I think he'll go higher than we're picking. Reed is already listed as questionable for week 1 (haha) and considering his dead cap hit for 2020 is less than 2 million i would rather just cut bait and move on unless he's willing to restructure. Granted he's only signed until 2021 so it wouldn't be terrible to keep him around but Vernon will be gone and Sprinkle will never develop into anything more than a very capable #2. The kid from Missouri would be a perfect fit although Jacob Breeland may be sneaky value in the 3rd. Trent Williams is breaking down and Moses has regressed to the point where I don't trust him enough to start. Trey Adams if he has another solid season would be a nice find.

We're not competing for the SB this season. If we want Rudolph then wait to see if he'll become a FA after the year. If he signs an extension with whomever he plays for this season then no big loss. I still expect big things from Sprinkle and if not i'd look at someone like Jacob Breeland in the 2020 draft.

You mean the Montez Sweat trophy to this year's Montezuper Sweat Champion the Montezon Sweatskins

That was honestly my biggest gripe against drafting a QB. I don't want it to become our own Rosen situation but if we clean house in some way then I'd rather we not be limited by compatibility with a QB's skill set. I get that QBs should be able to thrive in any schemes but if we do get a new HC that'll basically mean that Haskins will be learning his third system in three years.

It's really only a question of the roster spot. Like I said before I think he'll be one of the last last cuts when the team knows who is gonna make it and who wont and whether or not we can stash a certain player or two on the PS. Other than that, I don't see the need to carry three QBs on the roster not to mention another one on IR. If Alex wants to make his giant salary this year, he better be helping both Dwayne and Case learn the system.

Considering they had the first overall in every round plus an extra mid 2nd because of Rosen they had a good draft but in terms of quality across the board, I think we have em beat.
