Who else may be in the market for a starting QB
-
With this thread I am not only talking about what teams need a QB....because theirs may suck...but also who may be needing one due to the age of their starting QB....even though established. Here, in order from oldest to youngest are the ages of the projected starting QBs in the league when the season starts:
New England: Tom Brady 39
Cleveland: Josh McCown 37
New Orleans: Drew Brees 37
Arizona: Carson Palmer 36
Dallas: Tony Romo 36
NY Giants: Eli Manning 35
NY Jets: Ryan Fitzpatrick 34
Pittsburgh: Ben Roethlisberger 34
San Diego: Phillip Rivers 34
Green Bay: Aaron Rodgers 32
Chicago: Jay Cutler 32
Baltimore: Joe Flacco 31
Kansas City: Alex Smith 31
Atlanta: Matt Ryan 30
Denver: Mark Sanchez 29
Detroit: Matt Stafford 28
LA Rams: Case Keenum 28
Philadelphia: Sam Bradford 28
Miami: Ryan Tannehill 27
Seattle: Russell Wilson 27
Washington: Kirk Cousins 27
San Francisco: Blaine Gabbert 26
Indianapolis: Andrew Luck 26
Carolina: Cam Newton 26
Buffalo: Tyrod Taylor 26
Houston: Brock Osweiler 25
Oakland: Derek Carr 24
Jacksonville: Blake Bortles 23
Minnesota: Teddy Twatwater 23
Tampa Bay: Jameis Winston 22
Tennessee: Marcus Mariota 22

Teams with immediate needs for a new starting QB in my opinion: Browns, 49ers, and likely Rams and maybe Broncos...and maybe Jets if Fitz walks.
Teams probably/possibly in need of a future project QB: Patriots (though have Garropolo), Cardinals, Saints, Cowboys...and Jets under any circumstances (unless you think Geno Smith or Bryce Petty fit that bill).
Teams that may want to give it some serious thought for the future: Giants, Steelers, Chargers

Everyone from the bears/cutler up, excluding packers/rodgers would take a QB at the right price.

Every team may take somebody on a flyer project.....but I am most interested in which would make a serious heavy investment in a future QB in this draft.....like a first rounder, second at least.
My thought process being: if by some chance the Browns pass on a QB with #2....is there a chance that one of say the top 3 candidates: Wentz/Goff/Lynch....could slide to #32?
It seems to me that the Broncos would want to continue to win now....and that they won't turn that team over to a raw rookie. The Niners and Rams however certainly/likely would. If by chance ONLY those two take a QB in Rd. 1....then a guy may still be there....unless one of these teams take that serious flyer. (most likely candidate as I see it: Cowboys)
In other words, who else besides the Browns are in the market for a first/second round QB?
-
Note: in our Mock draft, the top 3 QBs were gone after 15 picks: Rams/49ers....no surprise. But Bears took a guy. That was a bit of a surprise, no?
-
When I say would take a QB, I mean is someone like Goff/Wentz fell to their second rounder they'd not hesitate (like Rodgers).

My belief is if the qb is there take him. If you have to reach then it's a better chance to get a bust. Or luck plays in with the choice along with chance.Teams with immediate needs for a new starting QB in my opinion: Browns, 49ers, and likely Rams and maybe Broncos...and maybe Jets if Fitz walks.

Broncos may not have a choice..if they can't get Kapernick, they aren't going with Mark Sanchez. Niners and Rams are definite QB needy teams. I could see a team like the Cowboys trading back into the first round if one of the guys is still there in the late teens or early 20's just because Romo is old and fragile and they lost every game he didn't start last year. The Bears are another one who would take a guy and I could see the Chargers even trading next years #1 if they liked a guy bad enough to move back into the 20's to take a guy to sit behind Rivers for a couple years.
So to answer the initial question...I don't see a chance in hell of Wentz, Goff, or Lynch sliding all the way to 32.

No.....of course, Im not surprised because I picked him......but they have Jay Cutler and he's an over paid, underperforming, disinterested bum with only one year left on his contract.....I assure you, they desperately want him gone....

And now Gase is gone, he will likely revert to form, the form that had the bears trying to trade him for nothing.

Some services that I have seen still put Connor Cook on the cusp of 1st/2d round. I know I have heard all about him from all y'all about what a bad guy he is.
But...at #32?
Though, I suspect that he will go to one of those teams that have a QB approaching the 35 year old mark...in a later round...and that he will become their project QB.

If we're going to take a QB, it needs to either be an unquestionable 'QB of the future' or a project we can stash for a while. None of this 'well he could be great in the right situation' business we've had so much of.

There are none of the former in this draft class. Sorry.
If it is to be a stashable project.....it would have to be a later round pick. You don't use #2 on that.

If he's a bad project and a bad guy what the fuck's the difference if he goes number 1 overall or the bottom of the seventh round?

Ask yourself that question: Were you more pissed about the performance, or lack thereof of Trent Richardson or of Garrett Gilkey?
