Let's talk about Dak's backup

[Hawkeye0202]

Not hearing/reading much.......of course it's not their high-priority list right now but something to keep an eye on. Keep in mind, MM was Alex Smith's first OC with the 49ers. I think Spotrac has his market value around $4-5M.

*Alex Smith
*Colt McCoy
*Garret Gilbert
*Cooper Rush
*RG III

With Andy Dalton gone, which way will Dallas Cowboys turn for backup QB?

 

[JBS]

Gilbert..easy

He played better than Dalton in the one game we saw him play

 

[boysfanindc]

Either Alex or Colt I think would be a good addition.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Flacco

 

[PJTHEDOORS]

Late draft pick.

 

[cowboyec]

on the roster:gilbert

outside:alex smith or joe flacco

i wouldnt mind drafting a qb late...smu's shane buechele

 

[Aviano90]

Can’t win with any of them if Dak goes down again. Neither will be the future of the franchise. Draft a QB who can at least develop if we are going to waste the season due to an injury.

 

[jazzcat22]

Colt McCoy. I would not mind that at all.

Dak, Colt, Gilbert
Dinucci on the PS

 

[Killerinstinct]

Mariota

Alex Smith has strong ties with MM, I think he is a realistic option.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Alex Smith for me......and draft a developmental guy

I've seen enough of Ben Side-Arm Dinucci (lol)

100%.......not to mention, who was the first person Dak called out for helping him with his rehab?????

Remember he was the OC when the 49ers drafted Smith #1 Overall. Makes a ton of sense and shouldn't be too expensive.

I'd personally prefer McCoy and DiNucci.

I think the team will go with Gilbert/DiNucci.

 

[Mr_437]

Give me Garrett Gilbert all day. I want a QB who can push the ball down field and maximize the weapons. Pocket presence, coverage/blitz recognition, can escape, run on read option calls, bootlegs and throws well on the run. Plus, he already has been on the team. 2 year $4.5M contract.

Smith - check down QB, waste of weapons.
Colt - similar to Smith just not as good.
Rush - as a QB3/PS only...better to draft QB3.
RGIII - rather start Cedrick Wilson at QB.
Flacco - washed, lack of mobility n accuracy.
Mariota - soild option.

 

[fivetwos]

Mariota

Probably the best player out of the realistic options, but I think he will get more money and a better chance to start elsewhere.

Washington sounds about right.

 

[Ranching]

I'd like to draft Elinger from Texas and use him like a Taylor Hill. Keep Gilbert or sign Colt as primary starter.

I like Ehlinger, ....he is a hard nosed tough SOB who is a gutsy QB. Some compare him to Tebow, but he throws better than him. Great leader. He may not turn out to be an All Pro, but he will have a nice lucrative career as a reliable backup like Colt McCoy. Can also run the RPO. I would not be mad if Dallas takes him in the later rounds.

But i would keep Gilbert around.

Roll with Gilbert
For the cost it's worth it.

Anyone of the first 3 in that order.
