Below is my way too early QB list going into next year.
1. Draft CJ Stroud- this will more than likely take some wizardry from Ziegler to possibly pull off a trade with the Colts. I say a swap of picks and the rights to Derek Carr may be enough. If we get CJ, the backup QB won’t matter, the way he performed against the best defense (Georgia) in the championship GM has me hoping he wears silver & black next year.
2. If we sit pat at #7, we have got to build up our defense and get best DL available. Sign Tom Brady, and draft Will Levi’s. I personally don’t like Wills style and think he’s not ready yet, hence the sitting behind Brady for a year approach. He may even benefit from some goal line packages similar to Lamar Jackson.
3. Lamar Jackson- as much as I think his injury is a cause for concern, his game play is electrifying and can energize this team all by himself, I just don’t think he’s an overall team fit and won’t be able to consistently pass into tight windows, and our D is not good enough to keep giving him chances like Baltimores.
Any thoughts?
