How far do you think the last of the top 4 QBs will drop?

I think if mayfield slips to 10 I can see the cards trading up with the raiders to grab him. I don’t see them trading up with anyone higher. I wonder what it would cost to move up 5 slots?Please cards do not take josh Allen. I can’t stand the thought of having a qb that has to learn accuracy.

3rd, 5th, and a 2-4th next year. Hopefully 4th in that scenario.

Maybe the question should be, "How far should they drop?". I'm wondering if this QB class is one of the all time best, or one of the all time over hyped?

So, Darnold, Rosen, Mayfield, Allen.

How far do you think one of them might drop? Are you firmly thinking they’re all gone in the top 5?

Very interesting question. All of them has flaws, and anyone of those flaws could make teams let them pass by. The term about how it only takes one team to fall in love with a prospect are definitely correct in this scenario, and I do believe that teams rank the big four much differently.

If I had to guess, I would think Baker Mayfield drops a bit. I think most teams will be skeptical about how he will handle himself when he becomes a pro. These guys are becoming multimillionaires, future faces of their respective franchises and exposed to more media coverage than when they were in college. Obviously, you never know how the prospects will react to this, but I do feel there is more uncertainty with Mayfield than with Darnold, Rosen and Allen in that regard.

Rarely do the draft goes as most outsiders are projecting, so I could see this happen.

Mayfield won’t get past the Jets. He’ll light up NYC and this is the same team that traded for Favre, signed Tebow and hired Rex Ryan.

Oh hell - not sure the sky is falling - if one is there and bpa pick him - if not pick bpa at 15- not sure enough that any is worth a major trade up - I mean their ain’t no Andes luck, wentz in the group.

The top 4 will be gone by 5 and maybe by 4. I’m thinking now the Cards pass on L Jackson. I’m stunned by this but I’m hearing they think Glennon can be the QB. He’s not unseating Bradford but in a year or 2 they think Glennon will develop. I’d heard they liked Alexander and I used to think he might last until round 2. Now I’m hearing a run on CBs in round 1 which means if the Cards want their choice they need to go at 15 or maybe if they get lucky a team gets nervous and jumps up for L Jackson (I appreciate the irony). If Buffalo can’t move up their 12, then they might move from 22. I hear the Steelers like LJackson also. The Cards could perhaps still get J Jackson or Hughes. They’d hope Hughes would drop to 2 but not after his Pro Day.

A week ago I was certain the Cards were locked into a QB. I certainly don’t agree on a Glennon but that would make his signing seem more sensible for me. I also think the more odd things that are associated with L Jackson are adding up. It’s still possible the Cards sell out and move up to the 4th or 5th pick. That would require a huge philosophy change for Keim. Beyond that I no longer expect a QB at 15 if the Cards keep the pick.

He won't have to unseat Bradford, He will be the starter by the second quarter...of the first game we play the Rams.
