You have 2 QBs generally rated as Top 5 talents. Both are different types of prospects. One is a more refined QB from a bigger conference, who while possessing all the physical characteristics of a starting NFL QB doesnt have the physical ability of the other. The other has rare physical ability, but plays in a smaller conference and while he shown he can make NFL throws, the offene he runs is much simplisitic then the others

Between Goff and Lynch, who is the best QB in this draft?
 
I like Lynch but i dont trust Wade wilson to work with him,they need a new Qb coach if they pick Lynch.
 
Myself I like Lynch. I like the fact he is a big yet mobile QB who has a big arm yet also shows good touch on his throws
 
A qB with a great arm has some real advantages in the NFL,teams are more circumspect crowding the Box and blitzing,he just needs to learn the pro game.
 
I like Goff better than Lynch. Lynch is big and strong but does not throw well on the run and his dinky dunky passes are not impressive.
 
I have Goff ahead of Lynch. I have Goff at 3 as well and Lynch at 7. People often praise Lynch on his impressive arm, but Goff doesn't have a weak arm by any stretch. In fact I think it's well above average. More than enough to make every nfl throw. His accuracy is what really sets him apart though. He also is incredibly diligent in his training. He was reported to work on his footwork daily so going under center more may be an easier transition as well and he also doesn'thave the hitch in his throw that needs to be worked out. I like both and will admit that Lynch has a ceiling of being the most talented QB in the league. I think Goff has a top 5 QB ceiling, but much less to clean up in order to hit that ceiling. All of that and more played into where I rank them and the order I prefer them.
 
I like Goff more than Lynch and by a wide margin... that said, I don't think either of them are top 5 draft pick worthy. They just happen to be the best available this year. I wouldn't take either of them personally but if I had to chose, I take Goff.
 
I think a lot of people will like Goff more than Lynch almost solely based on their Bowl performances where Goff was outstanding and Lynch bombed.

You have to look at more than just 1 game for each though. Both are pretty dang good. Either has the potential to be really good in the NFL given proper coaching and situations.
 
If Romo is healthy for 3 more years, I'd take Wentz. He's extremely intelligent and a physical freak. He's a guy who can learn from Romo for 3 years and light up the league. Then I'd probably take Lynch. But if Romo continues to miss multiple games a season and is forced to hang it up in a year or two, I'd take Goff. He's the most ready QB.
 
Put me down on the Goff wagon. Even on his highlight video Lynch never looks past his first option. I would like to see how Wentz performs in the senior bowl but by draft time he could be ranked higher than Lynch on my board if he can demonstrate the same level of poise and talent against better competition.

Actually Ive read that he throws on the run quite well....

what I like also he has big hands, so gripping the ball is never a problem....I heard he doesnt always even throw with the laces?

I have not seen any report of them being top 5 talent. Probably top 5 picks because they're qbs. But talent? I would put goff in top 12 and lynch in top 20.

In the middle of the season goff looked bad in his decision making. These two shouldn't be top 10 picks imo. But in today's desperate nfl they are what they are. I see atleast one of these two being the next blaine gabbert. Think wentz will be the better nfl qb

Both of these guys, but Lynch even more so needs to really impress in the team meetings. Teams are going to throw a lot of plays on a white board and see what these guys really know.

I think so too. He'll probably see his stock rise and have mid first round status.
