We have to have one on the roster to try and develop and i kindof agree a second is too high but mccord does look the part

I don't agree that we have to have one to develop. We don't ever develop those guys anyway, so what is the point of forcing that issue?

Additionally, there are ample cast-off younger veteran QB's that are available every offseason if it's some strange requirement to have one(it isn't).

I want to trade down.  We are not ready for a rookie qb.  If we get one select him later in draft or rd 2 if someone falls.   We need lots of draft capital.  And if we are at 1 and raiders at 10ish we could fleece them

We're ready on O for a rookie QB - that OLine is as good as it gets - but he'd have to win a shootout every week.

Oh yeah @CRA I'm no homer I agree with you on Sanders holding the ball too long. Yeah his Oline is bad, but some of those sacks were his fault. If he has a weakness it's holding the ball and taking unnecessary sacks. He has to work on that.

That’s literally been my only real critique of him.  The QB.  I don’t think in big moments he goes for the big play too much.  But that’s not a major one,    That 4th and 5.  Think there were smarter plays.  

but that’s a big concern trying to transition to the NFL.  It’s a much bigger flaw to a QBs game at the next level. 

I wish Colorado would get away from the 4 wide hero ball scheme they essentially force him into.  I still think they could win more games if they tweaked things.   It would also help get him out of the bad habits he is building on

part of the reason the reason he doesn’t have a run game to work off of is just scheme and playcalling.  They had like negative 30 rushing last night.  That’s not talent.  That’s on the coaches.  They got the talent to run in that conference.
