2022 QB Carousel Predictions

[sb1]

Bumping this one up cause it looks like we have another QB carousel this offseason.

How I did a year ago...

Teams that might (or might not) be looking for a QB and where they might end up...I'm sure I'm forgetting someone. Speculate away

Jets- Darnold
GB- Rodgers
Jaguars - Lawrence
Dolphins- Watson
Colts- Stafford
Texans- Fields
Broncos- Tua
Washington-Cam
Lions- Wilson
Bears-Trubisky
Steelers - Ben
Cowboys - Dak
Saints- Winston
49ers- Lance
Falcons- Ryan
Eagles - Wentz
Patriots- Jimmy

Guess I missed Mac Jones for some reason. Probably would have said Pats backing up JG

For 2022:

Steelers - Rodgers
Packers - R. Wilson
Jets - Z. Wilson
Dolphins - Watson
49ers - Lance (named starter)
Falcons - Ryan for one more year
Bucs - Brady
Browns - Cousins. Mayfield is definitely on the hot seat
Raiders - Carr
Texans - Mills
Broncos - Jimmy
Panthers - draft pick to back up Darnold for now
Giants - D. Jones
Lions - draft pick. I think Goff's seat is warm.
Seahawks - Hurts
Eagles - Winston
Saints - Tua
Patriots - Mac Jones. He's not getting traded don't listen to Cowherd

Steelers - Watson
Packers - Rogers (MAYBE Dolphins or 49ers for 1 or 2 years)
Dolphins - Tua
49ers - Lance
Bucs - Brady (although I think there's a 60% chance he surprise retires. if so, they grab Jimmy)
Broncos - draft (Pickett?)
Lions - Goff
Seabirds - Wilson stays
Eagles - Hurts stays
Saints - Winston (gets a full season with new HC to prove)
Patriots - Mac is here the next 10 years.

This Tampa writer lists several possibilities for the Bucs; he doesn't list a favorite but does seem to lean towards Carson Wentz. The other Tampa Bay quarterbacks are veteran Blaine Gabbert (who will become a free agent in March) and second-year QB Kyle Trask (2nd round pick of the 2021 draft).

Who could be behind Door No. 2 for the Bucs?
