He is not competing with our #1 pick.  Not sure what nfl you guys are watching.   

Because they only train the starters in the NFL right there are no QB rooms or anything

There's nothing to do but watch the show.  He really got a raw deal. This ultimately ended up as a horrible destination. Just horrible.

I expect him to get some meaningful Reps this preseason.  He'll be groomed to be a backup.  You are relying on a rookie to start; you might as well have good young back up.  

It only benefits us for Reich and Co. to develop Corral.  If he were to get some meaningful minutes, he could boost our chances of trading him for our 3rd back.

I don't see how anyone can say he got screwed by a person.

He got injured. Had he not, he might have seen the field last year. Everyone else did. I don't know who to blame that on, but I am sure someone has it down to Rhule, Fitterer or Tepper and the crowd will follow.

Where else was he gonna go. He probably would have just been drafted by another team and never given a chance. Corral as the franchise QB died when he got injured.

Well we just have to disagree (and the crowd is not necessarily following).

Rhule never ever gave Corral any serious consideration. None, whatsoever. I think that the injury was at least an indirect result of Rhule's mishandling of the rookie. Anyone that's trying to play up mental reps, giving a rookie maybe four reps (if lucky), and placing him behind guys that probably aren't even in.the NFL, much less the team, isn't valuing that rookie as all. The O-line got pushed back and run slam over, and as a result the injury occurred and Corral has been on ice during a very critical time if his career really derailing it from even getting going. At least give the kid a couple of reps with the second string to see what he does. Rhule mismanaged Corral to the Nth degree.

Oh manI shouldn't argue again but.... I don't think blaming people is productive, it isn't likely an accurate charge, etc.

It was said in plain English when he was drafted that he was a developmental pick. The defined it that way. I wasn't against it, I tend to like the smaller risk investments that are not immediate payoffs. 

So it was never in the plan for him to step Right in. That is revisionist. It is unfortunate that Rhule handled the QB position the way he did, for three seasons and last year, adding Mayfield was just muddying the waters further. 

I hope there is agreement that had Corral not gotten hurt, he would have gotten plenty of practice reps through the season even if with the scout team because PJ would likely have been cut. He would have gotten a year in the QB room which I don't know how that worked with him on IR but anyhow, this is the year he really could have been competing. But you know, he got injured. 

If he is on track for clearance to play in July as I heard, and with a new staff, this is just a bad break to start his NFL journey. I can't blame Reich for letting him go given he doesn't have a ton to go on and the player just won't be ready. Maybe they IR him again, and do have some interest in keeping him. But then, Reich who is (rightly) seen as a far better QB man than Rhule, scouted the kid, no doubt. So maybe even a healthy Corral wouldn't have gotten him excited, but he probably would have been wise enough to see what was up before moving him out. Again, it comes to a cliche even:  the best ability is availability. Life in the NFL. Pro sports. 

If he is any kind of victim he is a victim of circumstances. And his own frailty I guess. Or fate. I don't see a person to make the bad guy moving forward.
