I’ve been studying this year’s quarterback class and, honestly, they are tough to evaluate. I’m not overly enamored with any of them. I think Pickett is probably the safest pick. Willis probably has the highest ceiling. Corral, Strong, and Howell will be over-drafted because nearly every team wants a quarterback and it’s a poor quarterback year. There doesn’t appear to be a plug-and-play quarterback among any of them. I am interested in what you all think?

I've said it before -
I don't see any QB in this draft class that is any better than Lock. -
You very well could be right. Lock has all the physical skills you would want in a quarterback. My criticism of him has always been pointed toward the mental aspect.Originally posted by BroncoJoe View PostComment

All I know is when he had an OC for two consecutive years in college, he set the SEC record for TD's.Originally posted by qbronco View Post
Maybe it's coaching? I don't honestly know, but I'd guess that has had a lot to do with it.Comment

A lot of truth to that. Pairing the right coach with a quarterback can make a huge difference.Originally posted by BroncoJoe View PostComment

Same, he's got the arm but the last two seasons every time he's stepped on the field he's looked completely unprepared. I'm not going to say that isn't mostly the previous regime's fault, I just don't know if it's salvageable at this point. Sounds like if anyone can get him engaged again it's Hackett - I think Lock would really respond to football being made fun.Originally posted by qbronco View PostComment

I’ve been very critical of Lock, but something he said after the last game caught my attention. He said while playing the last few games, he felt things were finally starting to slow down for him. I took that as he was letting the game come to him and not over analyzing. That may mean he has made some progress.Originally posted by PRBronco View PostComment

I don't really follow college football much, but based on what I've read, I'm just not sure any are a significant upgrade over what we already have.Originally posted by qbronco View PostComment

Pretty lucky that almost all of the big names are scheduled to be at the Senior Bowl, that'll be a hell of a week for us.Originally posted by qbronco View PostComment

Yes, I am anxious to see who does well in that game. Combine will also be interesting, if they participate?Originally posted by PRBronco View PostComment

I like this guy with our 2nd round pick, if he’s still available.

I do too actually, but the people that don't like him, REALLY don't like him. He's the one I'm most looking forward to seeing in Mobile.Originally posted by qbronco View PostComment

I don’t think we should go QB in round 1. I wouldn’t be against taking someone in round 2 though.
it’s a shame we wasted a season starting Teddy. I would have liked to see lock play moreComment

Pickett interests me. His game has been drawing comparisons to Mac Jones and Joe Burrow because of how he processes info and is an accurate and timely thrower. He's supposed to have a high football IQ. The Senior Bowl week should tell us a lot.

He's Streisand Effecting himself!Originally posted by Requiem View Post
Seriously can we at least get a picture of him holding a ****ing pop can or something?
edit: Also wow he's got t-rex arms.Comment

give me willis if we take a shot on one of them.Comment

This is ridiculous. What's the point of postponing a hand measurement to do exercises and create an artificial measurement that won't be accurate when he's on the field. He is basically calling GMs and coaches idiots by thinking they would officially adopt this hand measurement he's trying to manipulate. Just measure the damn hand and prove you can throw an NFL football in wet and windy conditions.Comment

How high do we think Bailey Zappe will climb.Comment

I wouldn't be surprised if someone snagged him on Late Day 2 (end of third round), but some people are floating Top 75 if he performs well in Mobile. I don't see it, but anything can happen.Originally posted by Allen_C View Post
He just doesn't move the needle for me at all (long-term) because his arm talent is average, but he probably has a solid chance of developing into a quality back-up level QB. Smart and accurate. He chucks the ball a lot and had plenty of time from the guys up front to get the job done.
Kind of reminds me of a Case Keenum/Graham Harrell level prospect. I wouldn't give him a serious look until Day 3.Comment
