I disagree.

How Herbert is "the one and only" is beyond me...
and while I'm certainly not super high on one year starter Haskins... I still think he can be very good at the next level.

How you can just lump all these guys in as career back ups is kinda silly.
Not sure what TwitterScoutTM you're referring to but I'm sure plenty of us just watch games and like certain guys.

But I suppose you'd be comfortable rolling with Blake next year?

I agree. I don't see Herbert as the only option. Even if he doesn't declare and Haskins does, I feel pretty decent about our options. This is definitely not as good a QB class as last season IMO, but there is still some good QB's available. I believe Haskins, Herbert, Grier and Lock all give us a chance to majorly upgrade the QB position.

We need to stop propping guys who aren't top prospects as top prospects.  Top of class doesn't meant a top NFL caliber prospect.  Just because TwitterScoutTM raves doesn't mean we have to fall in line with that opinion.  They are typically sub-500 on such evaluations because they are desperate to "call" the next star.

If he comes out, Herbert is the one and only to target.

If not, you're getting a backup or middling qb that isn't the franchise, like what we've perpetually had (at best.)

What makes you sure he's the one and only QB to target?

After watching a handful of his games some of his traits both positive and negative are very similar to Bortles. But like with any prospect in the draft, it's a risk to see if the negatives can be minimized or eradicated on the next level.
