Herbert
Bosa
Oliver
Greedy Williams
imo that will be the first 4.

figure Colts, Raiders, Giants, 49ers might be those 4 teams.
Giants very likely to move up to 1 and take Herbert imho.

teams in that 10-15 that want a qb area gotta study Lock, Stidham Grier, Finley.

i'll be honest and tell you I think Grier is very much like Dak.
strong and tough but accuracy is very dependent upon his feet.

20 of his top 25 are defensive players right now. Looks like a strong draft for defense. Don't know if that necessarily makes it a weak draft for offense.

interesting

every other draft board I've seen seems to be much higher on AJ Brown and Nkeal Harry.

I've seen Finley play several times. He is a pro QB. Accurate and throws a really pretty ball.

I am looking forward to watching him Saturday against Clemson.

Other than Herbert, he might be my favorite QB in this draft. Grier's stock fell with me after he laid a turd in Ames.

Yep. Guy can play.

Clemson will reveal his flaws.

Lock did not look good against Alabama the time that I saw him play on Sat. Then again nobody looks good against them. Would love to get Herbert and have him an Dak battle it out. Best qb gets the starters position. Unfortunately might have the chance. Can see him going to the Broncos or Giants if he comes out. Read some where he might want to stay one more year to get more game experience but it is still early.

Herbert may want to stay at Oregon, but if the NFL draft advisory board projects him to be the 1st QB selected in the 1st round, it would be difficult for him to remain in school.
No doubt that win yesterday, pushed down our draft slot considerably --- but only 2 games ahead of the Giants in the win column, and 1 win ahead of the Broncos -- still early in the season.

Based on last week performances, both Lock & Grier had setbacks.
Ryan Finley out of NC State plays Clemson this week -- so evaluating his performance should be interesting.
Heck Todd McShay claims (back in August) that Finley is the best QB in this class:

Bosa won't play again this year.

I agree about his potential, but has he really shown enough to be #1, over Oliver?

Those of your thinking we area drafting a QB in the first 3 rounds are going to be VERY disappointed.

So, 14 DL (and a pass-rushing OLB) out of 25? That seems...implausible.
