Hear me out--cause I got lotsa 'splaining to do. Doing some bottom fishing.  This guy is 6'3" and runs a 4.45 40.  gonna come back to that later.  He is not on anyone's draft radar.  However, I am thinking QB3, special teams, and possibly a pass-catching TE.  Taysom Hill, you ask?  I dunno.  Maybe.  However, his QB fundamentals (based on this website) are interesting in that he could be a dual threat option at QB.  His height and speed make me curious about other positions--a slot WR or wide TE--depends on his hands, but he has the tools.

Anytime you get a QB to play another position, they are intelligent--they understand the game better than other players.  Can he catch?  Is he a developmental QB who can play special teams?  

Here is what they say about him--as a QB.  I am also going to show his qb measures.

Scouting Report: Summary

A gunslinger with wheels, King brings an explosive element to the quarterback position that will have NFL scouts salivating. His ability to stress defenses both vertically with his cannon arm and horizontally with his 4.4 speed makes him a scheme-diverse prospect. King's quick release and ability to deliver strikes from various arm angles will translate well to the next level, where getting the ball out quickly is paramount.

However, King is still a work in progress in terms of consistency and decision-making. His tendency to play "hero ball" leads to turnovers, and he'll need to learn when to take the check-down or throw the ball away. His frame is also a concern, as he'll need to add bulk to withstand the rigors of an NFL season. King's accuracy on short and intermediate throws must improve for him to become a complete NFL quarterback.

King profiles as a high-ceiling, developmental prospect who could benefit from time in an NFL quarterback room. His rare physical tools and playmaking ability make him an intriguing project for teams with established veteran quarterbacks.  FWIW, King is the 22nd rated QB on NFLDraftBuzz.

      1) This is their last chance to get decent draft compensation. Is that better? A team who trades for a player on an expiring contract (the 5th year option in this hypothetical) is not going to give up much. The trade is essentially for the first right to sign the player to the second contract. 2) Compensatory pick is dependent on net free agency outcome and performance. A potential, late 3rd round pick next year is not as valuable as a 2nd round pick this year. These are forward-thinking roster moves that winning franchises make. I hope that makes sense to you.

      That couldn't be any more incorrect. They can still pick up his 5th year option and then trade him next offseason.  They can still decline the option, let him walk in FA next year, and as long as he has a good season will likely bring them back a 3rd round comp.  And they could do either of the above and then still franchise tag him afterwards and then trade him for what would be a really good return, assuming he continues to progress and stay out of trouble. All of this while he's only costing them $5.4 million against the cap and trading him would only get them $3 million in cap savings. It makes zero sense to trade him this offseason unless they have serious concerns about him or unless they get a godfather offer they can't turn down.
