The "Inside Word" on the QB Search

Here are the QB who potentially could be available at one point or another (excluding draft picks) this offseason:
Peyton Manning
Kevin Kolb
Mark Sanchez
Chad Henne
Matt Flynn
Brian Hoyer
Kyle Orton
Matt Leinart

I didn't put Sam Bradford on the list because Fisher noted him as a main reason he chose St. Louis over Miami. But the Manning decision will impact at least 3-4 teams. Let's say for example Manning is released, signs with Arizona who trades Kolb to the Browns meaning they are no longer in play for RGIII. Or the scenario that SS put out there that the Jets sign Manning, then trade Sanchez here. Until March 8, the QB derby is all speculation. If Manning is free then many doors open.

Also Colt McCoy, Jimmy Clausen, and Vince Young

It's like digging through the trash can trying to find quality meal.

I agree with you too. The team might as well start looking to improve in other areas if they aren't willing to do what's necessary to draft a top QB prospect.

Metal is valuable. I liken it more to along the lines of a hobo trying to find a cigarette butt that hasn't been smoked all the way.

Well since you put it that way I'll hold on to hope thanks PT.

I've stated many times that my preference is to trade up for RGIII and sign a lower level free agent or keep Grossman to back him up. As for plan B, I'd rather sign Henne than Flynn or Hoyer and draft Tannehill or Foles in the 2nd round. My wild speculation is if the Colts retain Manning then Luck forces a trade of the #1 pick because he doesn't want to sit behind Manning and we go up to get him.

Clearly what's going to happen is...

Manning will convince the Colts that they need to draft Blackmon after they lose Garcon and Wayne in FA

The Rams, already set at QB, will shore up their offensive line with Matt Kalil

The Vikings will forgot to turn in their pick and will not draft anyone at 3

The Browns will take RG3

The Bucs facing Cam Newton, Drew Brees, and Matt Ryan 6 times a year will lock up Morris Claiborne as Aqib Talib leaves for Tennessee and Ronde Barber retires

The Redskins take Andrew Luck at #6!!!!!

Well yeah, obviously but if I stated it that clearly and succinctly nobody would bother keep coming into the threads.. I was trying to keep your traffic numbers up. Good job of screwing it up for everyone SS. See you in August!

I find the differing perceptions between Colt McCoy and Sam Bradford interesting.

Other then McCoy playing in a much more difficult division their career production this far has been similar if not identical.

Yet everyone in this forum (and beyond) seems convinced that the Browns want to use the 6th pick or move up to replace him.
Yet very few or none seem to think that Rams sitting at No.2 will replace Bradford.

Must be good to be perceived as a franchise QB.

Preach.

The only way I don't think RG3 is going to be there at third overall is if the Rams are willing to take him (and start him) at no. 2 overall.

Perception is everything.
