When was the last time that there wasn't a single QB candidate projected to go in the 1st round?
 

Jim Beankie

In the Starting Line-Up
This may be of interest only to me - 7 out of 12 1st time SB winning QBs (well 6.5 if you count the Foles situation) since TB12's first were on their rookie contracts. Emphasizes the importance of getting lucky as all heck drafting well.

Avg of current contract during win in millions
01 ~0.3 TB12 (Rookie contract)
02 ~5.6 Brad Johnson *Not orig team
05 ~3.7 Big Ben (Rookie contract)
06 ~14.0 Peyton
07 ~7.5 Eli (Rookie contract)
09 ~10.0 Brees *Not orig team
10 ~10.6 Rodgers
12 ~6.0 Flacco (Rookie contract)
13 ~0.8 RWilson (Rookie contract)
17 ~6.5 Wentz (Rookie contract) - Foles 4.0
19 ~4.0 Mahomes (Rookie contract)
21 ~27.0 Stafford *Not orig team

Bet that number really jumps if you expand it to the final four. I might look when I have time.

Biggest cheat code there is. Especially if you're creative and already have a little bit of talent to work with.

Veteran Starter w/Big Long Term Deal
Dorian Thompson-Robertson, you watch, he’s gonna be a good NFL QB. Great arm, can run and keep plays alive with his legs, is a great leader. Had 88 career td passes and 28 career TD runs.

I always worry about the longevity of small scrambling QBs. It seems like they get hurt early and often, and never last. Now Purdy is lost for all of 2023 and maybe forever. Tua will not last. Jackson is starting to have injuries every year. Etc.

Where did you see that Purdy was lost for 2023?
Recent news articles are saying he'll be back for Training Camp. He didn't need Tommy John surgery.

I do not know where I saw it. It was in a JG article. It said that Purdy's surgery has still not happened because the swelling is still there, so the injury is most likely worse than thought. I read 5 to 10 articles per day and can not remember the source every time.

Your not saying anything that wasn't in the article I posted. So what about the surgery. It's mentioned that it hadn't been done last week. That doesn't change anything and it certainly doesn't support your claim that Purdy is lost for the year.

@BaconGrundleCandy my guru what's your take on QB Hendon Hooker?? I think he could be a quality Starter down the road in this league love his fearlessness in the pocket love that in a QB he also keeps his eyes downfield: you can clearly see that on tape.
