Hunting for QB of the future

[toffee]

Happier days!!! We went hunting for a QB of the future. Only Schneider is still with the organization now.

I would’ve given the world to get Stroud.

 

[Shane Falco]

It's going to be hard this coming draft to be in the mix for a top rated QB. What is there, nine? 2-win teams, crazy.

Gonna have to start taking some stabs at later round guys and hope to get lucky.

Not to mention the stock this year on QB's is pretty mid.

Let's get Deion Jr. Would be fun to have a personality in Seattle.

Daddy Deion gonna make sure his son plays for a big market.

It would be a mistake to try to draft one

It would be a mistake to try to draft one

Here's how the eight teams who made it past the wild card round of the playoffs last season acquired their QB.

Made it to divisional round:
Texans - drafted
Packers - drafted
Bucs - free agency
Bills - drafted

Made it to conference championship:
Ravens- drafted
Lions - traded

Made it to Super Bowl
Niners - drafted
Chiefs - drafted

Over the past three seasons, the only teams to make their conference championship game without a QB they drafted were the two involved in the Stafford-Goff swap.

Drafting doesn't look like such a bad idea.

Mistake as in don’t draft a QB because the OLine should be addressed first or mistake just because?

 

[toffee]

Drafting a quarterback is an art as well as a science. Of the four young smiling faces above, only one showed promise.

I keep hearing this draft will be pretty weak across the board, not just the QBs.

Because trying to get a franchise one in the draft is like trying to win the lottery. How many qb busts have there been?

I'm just clarifying here. You're saying that drafting a QB should never be an option because there is a possibility that they could be a bust?

Drafting high? Drafting at all? Taking a QB in this particular draft?

I'm asking because taking the stance of "never draft a QB" is certainly a position to take.

I hope you're joking. I'd like Seattle to win another SB before I crap my pants and die.

 

[Shane Falco]

It's mind-blowing how few QB's JS has drafted in his 15 years here. We definitely should have already been taking some flyers on guys the last few seasons.

On the other hand, many teams who drafted their QB *didn't* make the playoffs. Not sure I see any kind of causal relationship here.

Always amused by the the Draftphobics on here. "It's such a crap shoot! OUR draft pick, no matter where it is, is too low to get a good [insert position]. That just means your GM is horrible.

The moron JS has drafted ONE QB since RW. That in itself is stupid not to draft a late round QB every couple of years to try to develop a bit or use as trade bait. Of course at least he hit on ONE QB since I am not sure he has even hit on that many O-Line picks. But at least we drafted the Walking Penalty in Ifedi. Other than that his picks are generally injured missing more games than they play and then being so rusty they stink. "But but but . . . Injuries . . . " Other teams don't seem to have the problem to the same extent as our 2nd rate GM does. "Bu but but Pete called the shots" Well if so JS is a lazy figurehead that needs replacing. /endsminirant

The stafford Goff swap almost doesn’t count

I’m pretty sure almost every quarterback in the nfl was drafted by somebody

Top 5 undrafted QBs
Jake delhomme
Jeff Garcia
Tony romo
Warren moon
Kurt warner
