Peters, you can do better. With the new rules surrounding the third QB spot on the roster, having someone with starting experience is smart. This is just like the two catchers in MLB in AAA. There is always a need for the additional arm. Just ask the Jets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree we need more QBs, but don't you think there is someone better available than 30 year old driskol? I am severely underwhelmed by BOTH qbs Peters signed so far.

After drafting Maye or Daniels at 2, I really hope they take Sam Hartman in the 6th or 7th round bc they could be Sam Howell 2.0 or at worst the next Colt McCoy for us.

Not opposed to that. I think we should take a shot in the 6th/7th round like that every year like him or Slovis or Travis (who I think slappy likes) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much Slovis, he was all hype & never lived up to it but I really think Hartman & Travis are future career #2 QBs for the next 15-20 years in the pros.

Maybe, we all thought Sam Howell was going 2nd or 3rd round in 2022 but he fell to the 5th and Sam didn’t have a major injury he was coming back from.

Jordan Travis was well on his way to being a Heisman candidate. The closest Sam Howell got was a preseason watch candidate. I am pretty sure the latest you will hear Jordan Travis' name called is the 4th round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why you felt like bringing up Sam Howell when Jordan Travis was mentioned, but the point still stands, I expect Travis to be drafted in the first 4 rounds. The guy will be a successful NFL QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I’m pointing out that just bc someone was projected to be picked before they hit the draft process or had an injury doesn't mean they're still going to be picked in that same range after the draft evaluation process or a major injury.

Cool. Michael Penix is a walking medical case, he could go in the first round. Still has no bearing Jordan Travis, IMO. I appreciate the reminder that he got injured though. If he hadn't gotten injured, we likely are talking about him up next to Jayden Daniels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, he was never going that high. I like Jordan Travis but he's more a Sam Howell type QB than a Jayden Daniels type or even Drake Maye type. I don't remember ever seeing that Jordan Travis was projected to go in round 1. I do think that Jordan Travis can develop into a Russell Wilson type, they have similar games just like Howell’s game is similar to Wilson’s.

You have the benefit of him being injured and we will never know where he would have gone if he was still healthy, but the guy was playing like a top 10 pick before he got injured.
