They have to take a QB in Rd 1 next year IMO. I just don't know how a pro QB talent evaluator looks at either of them at this point and is like "...maaaaybe". They're both a long way off. And as for Sanders, I don't think he'll ever get there. He doesn't have the head set. I suspect he'll have some great moments over the next several games. But I think he'll look like he did against the 49ers more than not. He's a D+ to C+ QB. Every 3rd game or so he'll look like an A-. But he won't elevate his teammates. And I like Gabriel but I think his ceiling is apparent.

We unfortunately have to make decisive decisions pretty quickly right now. I suspect that we'll just have to go with the limited evidence in front of us at year's end and I think it'll tell us to go get another guy and make sure he's a good one.

Simpson is also going up against a really good college defense Saturday so that will be fun to watch also. All 3 QBs should be in the playoffs and play in pressure packed games which should add some clarity to the drafts peaking order.

I do think some of the QB names that were talked about before the season will become hot topics again after the season. Allar, Beak, Nussmeier, and Kubinec. Drake Maye was on a North Carolina team that was preseason top 10 his Senior year and limped to a disappointing 8-5 record in a weak ACC. He stayed a 1st round prospect and has performed better in the NFL than college. I do not think NFL scouts look at prospects with the same glasses we do. They look at intangibles and over all ability and not the team success we see in QBs. Not all but I think 1 or more of these names may work back into the conversation by April.

I'm actually way more interested in college games this weekend for this very reason. I think our guy is playing out there somewhere this saturday.
