How quickly do you think we'll add a QB in FA?

[Solar7]

So with no one on the roster, I think most of us are thinking that we'll need to sign a QB for this team.

But how long are you expecting it to take? Will we have the contract in hand March 14th? Will we take a week to complete visits and make an offer? Will we wait a month and sign whoever is last?

What are your thoughts?

March 15th

March 19th

Depends on if they end up trading for someone first. If no trades, then I expect them to sign someone quickly.

I would guess that they will throw their hat in the ring with 2 or 3. Either they sign one right away or wait to see how the draft unfolds.

I am sure Keim will sign a QB well before the draft. But I dunno...cant see him jumping on a guy on the first day of FA...there are too many guys available and too many teams looking.. the only way you get a guy on day one is if you offer a blow out deal...and I really hope Keim aint stupid enough to do that.
I would rather go into this season with Matt Barkley and a rook than pay a guy like Bradford or Keenum $20+mil

"Aggressive" does not have to equal "Stupid"

First day of free agency cause they know already and they got already the response, and contract terms but we have to wait march 12

One week.

If nothing comes to fruition Keim always has Stanton & Gabbert on speed dial. Then draft a top 10 QB.

Press conference to introduce new Card QB will be Friday March 16.

First week of FA, we will figure out who is really aviable to us and is cost effective or at a good rate.

I think our team has to go bridge QB and draft a QB (maybe even double dip).

For me Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield are players that could be there at #15

But from what I saw on Lauletta, he is my bet to be the best QB of this class, but we will see, down the stretch, for now, Russel Wilson was better than Luck and Foles has more SB rings than Luck as well and Cousins has more yards and completitions and TD.

So everyone that calls it a save bet, even Luck doesn't produce what you hoped for. It depends on the whole team, NE is so strong because Brady is so cheap, even cheaper than Bortles.

If he has either of those 2 on speed dial he should be fired immediately IMO.

I also don't understand how Barkley keeps coming up SMH.

No Poll?

not a sissyboy thread...

First or second day of free agency. Wouldn't be surprised to hear something during the legal tampering period.

After the first domino drops. Cousins deal will set the market so after he signs a deal. Of course he plans on FA visits first and will not sign during 2 day negotiation window. Once ARZ knows the ceiling then they can gauge how much to spend.

pretty sure SK already has a list of QB's and how much he thinks they are worth

 

[Shaggy]

I'm 100% positive they will sign/trade for a vet QB. No question. I have a feeling it will be either Keenum or Bridgewater.

 

[Stout]

It had better be pretty damn quick. We can't go the "We'll sit back and let the market sort itself out" route this time around.

 

[Heucrazy]

I just have a feeling it will be done quickly with McCarron and then a 2nd/3rd round QB in the draft.

I wouldn't be surprised though if the QBs let the market price themselves and wait a bit before committing to any team (aside from Cousins)--Bridgewater, Bradford, Keenum, McCarron might just wait for one of those others to sign and base their demands on that.

That's a real possibility.
