Or Taylen Green as a QB/WR?

Has he bought in to the idea of WR/TE? If so, you could get a Julian Edelman. If not, a Pat White.

FWIW King apparently didn't talk about a Taysom Hill-type role with Ashton Grant when they met.

When I saw him interviewed at the Combine he said he was a QB and had no interest in switching,
However he can change his mind quickly if 32 teams tell him switching is his only chance at an NFL career.

Such a wasted talent.

Who might fit? ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reid highlights two players he envisions could be targets:

Cade Klubnik (Clemson): "Cade came in as a heralded recruit after a successful [high school] career in Texas. He didn't reach that final level of development like a lot of people thought. I had him in the first round of my 'way-too-early' mock draft that I do a year in advance, just because of what he showed in that 2024 College Football Playoff game against Texas -- he was absolutely phenomenal. But it didn't happen, and it wasn't just him, it was Clemson as a whole. But Cade has been a three-year starter, routinely plays on time, is a very streaky thrower, he has experience from under center and shotgun, and is a very high character player ... I would say about the fourth/fifth round is where he is going to end up going."

Luke Altmyer (Illinois): "I thought he was phenomenal at the Senior Bowl, the best passer there. He has experience from under center and can play from shotgun as well. I love the mobility factor with him. He has a lot of those traits that we see from longtime backups -- he's a bit undersized (6-foot-2), but he has enough arm strength to go downfield with the ball. He's very accurate. He's also very decisive and that's what I love. Josh [McDaniels], in that offense, he wants someone that is in rhythm. I have Altmyer in the fifth/sixth round range."

A guy that is 6'6" probably has shuttle and 3cone times that would scare us. Is a RAS score valid when guys skip the testing they are bad at?

He just turns on the Manx Signal or calls on the Manxphone.
