Maybe the Bucs too but I feel like they'll give Jameis one more year with a ll that offensive talent around him. We could have our choice of QBs come April if things break right. My vote is Lock btw, guy has a rocket arm and great pocket presence

I've got em ranked 
Grier (Top 10)
Lock (top 10)
Haskins (top 15)
Finley (first rounder... watch out for New England here)

This is assuming the rumors of Herbert staying in school are true.

These are the 4 guys that have settled in as the first round QBs in my opinion and any of them could have very good NFL careers.
But as I've been harping here recently... the coaching staff matters in the development of any of these guys. None of them are coming in as "ready" as an Andrew Luck pick.
Put on a team with Gus Bradley coaching em, and they'd all flame out for different reasons. A hitch in the mechanics here, a certain "scheme" in college there... each one has a potential knock that anyone can point at and go "but but"

I wouldn't be mad at getting any of these 4...but with the current coach staff I wouldn't feel great about their ability to come in right away and help. I've just lost confidence in not only Hackett but Doug too.

We should finish top 5 realistically. Maybe the G-men will pick ahead of us. Outside of them, I don't see a lot of QB needy teams picking ahead of us as a few of them got their guy last year.

Here they have us taking Lock at 8
Herbert to the Raiders (everyone keeps saying he's staying in school and Carr is done?)

and then no other first round QBs Grier goes to NYG in 2nd... psssh

Which is kinda crazy to me.
