I was saying that Baker should be signed as a backup. What does that have to do with who signs him. Bucs may start Baker but they must plan on losing and not looking for their future qb.
I think the OSU QB is going to Carolina as the #1 overall pick. I highly doubt the AR goes above the top ten. But I am always amazed when GMs pick some QB based mostly on their physical attributes.
It blows my mind also but he will go top 10 I believe. I understand why though, if he can become an average passer, he can put a team in the playoff with a 10 and six record for the next five or six years. Average passer will never win you the Super Bowl but it will keep you from sucking.
Stroud is the most QB ready out of the top 4. Adam Schefter believes Young will be the number 1 pick.
I mean taking Stroud would make the most sense…. But… I still wouldn’t have given up everything for this years QB class.
There are a few defenses like Tampa, NY, and Chicago tgat dragged a man average guy there. Once every decade or so but it’s been awhile now that the nfl made it easier to put up big numbers. Not sure we will see an average qb win again.

Atlanta Falcons Devon Witherspoon, CB, Illinois 9. Chicago Bears (via CAR) Paris Johnson Jr., OT, Ohio State 10. Philadelphia Eagles (via NO) Peter Skoronski, OT/G, Northwestern
Levis at 3rd overall? Yikes. I think Hendon Hooker will be a steal, wherever he ends up getting picked. Most projections have him in the 2nd round. It wouldn't shock me if Hooker ends up being the best QB in this draft.
Napier needs to work the portal like a maniac this spring/summer and find his own mobile Hooker. Mertz is gonna get hurtz and Miller is no thriller.
I just don't get the Levis hype. I think Hooker could be a steal, just because he's going to go late compared to the first four. Funny for someone that dislikes UT as much as I do, I liked Joshua Dobbs too.
Is Atlanta gonna continue to roll with scrubs at QB? Why aren’t they trying to trade up to get 1 of the 4 QB’s? AR fits that franchise well.
Is AR better than Ridder? I’d trade down and stockpile picks, rather than trade up (with a poor team) and hamstring your future drafts.
