Lynch and Brissett last year.
Yes, they have to have the desire to absorb coaching and mainly be able to look off and progress beyond primary targets. Huge trait. It takes a while. They have to be tough and overcome difficulties and not give up. They have to have aptitude to study quickly.
It's a process, but it has to be undertaken. And there has to be viable competition. A must!
Arians on radio today. The Cardinals like 5 or 6 of the QB' s coming out this year. Stated that the rookie would have a real window of opportunity to learn under some of the best this year and that Palmer and Stanton would give them invaluable insights.
Good God, learn from Stanton????
Here is what a rookie QB could learn from Stanton.
1. If your under pressure.... Throw immediately to your first read.
2. If the line holds, and you have all day: Throw immediately to your first read.
3. How to make ESPN while dancing on the side-lines.
I put the most importance on #3...... But I would teach our QBOTF that for a few tickets and a hot dog or two.

I don't like any of the QB's at #13. I just think there at too many good players in this years draft to reach for a QB early.
There is one QB who has really peaked my interest lately and could be had in the middle of the draft. That QB is Chad Kelly. I think his off the field issues are overblown. He is the nephew and God Son of HoF QB Jim Kelly. He is an athlete and a competitor. Yes he has made some stupid mistakes as a young man but I think he has the strong family support needed to get past these maturity issues.
Harry had him listed as a possible 4th round pick for the Cardinals in another post. I initially thought that would be a little high for him considering his off the field issues and knee injury. However the more I think about it the more I like taking him in the middle of the draft.
The Cardinals don't need Kelly for the 2017 season seeing as the Cardinals have Palmer and Stanton. So Kelly can sit and learn from BA and Palmer while he recovers and learns the offense during his "redshirt" season. Waiting till the 4th round to draft Kelly gives the Cardinals 3 early round draft picks to use at other positions in one of the deepest drafts in years. Plus if Kelly doesn't work out, a 4th round bust is much easier to move on from than a 1st round pick.
Sheesh..Look Stanton isn't great on the field, that's why we're still looking. Obviously the rook will be able to pick things up from both Palmer and Stantons' experience regardless, no matter how we percieve them. That is what BA stated in getting a youngster in this year to grow under Everyones tutilige.Good God, learn from Stanton????

Watson is probably ready to play and out of our target
I think that Arians may view Webb as the guy ready to play early. I feel that way based on a hunch honestly. Webb is older, mature, and has the size profile Arians like.
Obviously I love Mahomes based on all the posts I've made. The kid is just a gamer.
I'm starting to agree with you on Mahomes. Someone here pointed out his game against LSU from last season so I watched it, really impressive.
I don't agree on Webb. If there's a guy who's ready to play it's Watson or Kaaya who started 3 seasons in a pro style offense. Clean mechanics and overall fundamentals. Questionable accuracy on intermediate throws and doesn't have a cannon but overall seems like a decent player. Probably not as high of a ceiling but sounds like a guy who can be a long term backup.
Seriously Kaaya sucks. The U of Miami under Al Golden offense was vanilla. The guy is a statue and extremely awful under a pass rush. He has fear in his eyes when pressured and NFL defenses would eat him up. He is more likely to throw a pick 6 than a throw away when rushed. Strictly a practice field thrower with a red jersey on. Maybe another year under Mark Richt would have helped his skill set, but Mark Richt declared the QB position open and Brad K took off for the NFL with a pre draft 3rd round analysis.
Ummmm....... no. It is a bit more complex than those 2 factors.You think Webb can start next year based on what his arm strength and height?
Why Watson?
This and this.
Webb, if forced to , seems to be the guy who could step in. Mahomes skill set is so far above the rest it is scary. Growing up in a professional sports family might lend itself to a willingness to adapt and throttle it back to a team oriented offense. I also get the feeling that Arians would relish the tutoring process with Mahomes.
I would be so into Mahomes being taken at #13 ( I think he will be gone before #13 ) but Webb at the back end of the first would be a gift.
Ummmm....... no. It is a bit more complex than those 2 factors.
Saw him play at both Texas Tech and Cal. Probably a dozen games at least so that makes me biased. What I implied is that compared with the rest of the QB group he would have the best chance of some success. Never implied start from Day 1 when I said "if forced to".
Found a couple of interesting articles on QB's..one from last year and one from this year. It's amazing how different the opinions/evaluations are each year regarding the most important position in football.

Perfectly put.
I feel Mahomes has the highest ceiling, and it's not close. Go watch him play, and you see a guy who has complete mastery of his offense. His problem is that he knew that he had to always score 45+ points to win every week.
and he did it with a roster full of 2 star, at best, recruits on those rosters. Kliff Kingsbury might be on the hot seat. He can recruit and train productive QBs, but the rest of roster ( defense ) not so much. K K saw the "it" factor in Mahomes and the rest, Webb/Mayfield/Brewer saw it too and transferred. Those guys have gone on to start and produce at their landing spots at a high level.
Looks like Chargers are going QB with their #7 pick.
Chargers say they need a young quarterback
I doubt it but that would actually be great for us. Another great player could potentially fall to us.
My hope is 3 QB's, 2 RB's, and one OT go in the top 12.
