Well some younger vet QBs could still stand development, and some obviously made some jumps the last couple of years. 

I know that many of you just don't believe in Matt Corral, but I'd say that he will be on their things-to-do-list as well as anyone.

He could benefit to.. I actually I hope he does because that could be a major trade piece for us if he does.. But that can’t be your plan.. You can’t go into the season with Matt Corral as your main option to be a starter????Especially when you are in range to get better more physically talented Prospects..This FO and staff wouldn’t last the year.. He was a 3rd round pick for a reason..

Saying a player won't be good because they were taken in the third makes as much sense as Rhule saying Darnold, Bridgewater, Mayfield, Erving, Elflein would be good because they were first rounders.

Arguably the best player in team history was selected in the 3rd

Weird that if we "like Carr" we've made zero known effort to reach out as of yet. Have to think that Reich already has the foundation of a plan for the position in place and gave a glimpse of that when he pitched himself to management. If that involves Carr you can't maintain radio silence for much longer.

Very true.    And besides, it's looking more and more like he may be Jets-bound :

But again that’s wasn’t a planned event.. They didn’t stop bringing in WR’s and just knew Smitty was it.. Actually his 1st season was mainly using him as a Punt and Kick returner.. He outplayed other players brought in.. The Ssme Corral has to do.. It’s completely clueless thinking just giving a 3rd round pick a job after proven nothing…

If there is no urgency they are ok with drafting one.  I mean his offensive staff is setup to develop a young QB vs signing a vet.

Yeah I know Carr is "taking his time", but I see zero reason why we would consider signing him before the draft. Same with Jets or Saints, they could take a qb in round 1 as well and lose interest in him

Carr is going to sign the first week of free agency, why would he wait until the draft?

[Skack25]

Signing Carr and drafting a QB at 9 (not named Young or Stroud) would be nonsense.  Actually, drafting a QB not named Young or Stroud at 9 would be nonsense, even without Carr.

I think the teams are going to wait til after the draft, theres not exactly a bidding war going on for him at the moment

His staff hasn’t even met yet, and a fair portion of them are getting set up in their office today. 

Jets meeting with Carr went well as I said yesterday and as reported above.
 

Carr’s team wants to sit down with everyone. Carolina’s FO has interest in talking to him but there’s no point in doing it until Frank’s team can come together and discuss if they have interest.

Do they have interest or not?  I only see articles saying Carolina is "expected" to have interest.  If a 37 million dollar (his expected salary) starting QB becomes available, and he is one you really like then you don't really drag your feet in meeting with him.  If there is any interest in this point it seems minor, as Frank Reich and Fitt would be at least inquiring about a meeting.  Bringing in Caldwell and McCown is a little telling where Reich is leaning with his QB decision and it's currently in the draft.  This staff was assembled to help find and develop a young signal caller.  Fitt has already said drafting your guy is the best way to do it and also stated if there is one you like you move up and draft him.

FO has interest, wants buy in/collaboration from Reich’s team. You don’t sign a guy that the staff doesn’t agree on, supposedly that’s the situation FR just came from.

Reich’s team hasn’t even sat down together yet.

NFL moves more like the DMV than McDonalds. 
 

I imagine there are other staffs being assembled that will want to talk to him as well. Hence why Carr wants to explore his options with these teams and NY wants deal done yesterday. 
 

What you’re referring to about Fitt is GM speak. Nobody knows what his plan is except him and his team. He isn’t going to broadcast it to the media and lose leverage with other GMs. 
 

Patience everybody.
