IMO there have only been 2 super can't miss prospects at QB since I've been paying attention to the draft. Tha's Luck and Elway. Everyone else had some knocks on them.rich72 wrote Wed Nov 23, 2022 8:25 pm: Yeah I dont really see any sure thing QB picks in this draft. The last one that was supposed to be almost a once in a generation talent was lawrence. I wouldnt call him a bust but hes not blowing away the NFL either.

Peyton was lacking in both arm strength and general athleticism making not in the same class as the other 2 according to scouts.16 to 88 wrote Wed Nov 23, 2022 10:23 pm:Peyton Manning

Peyton manning was regarded pretty highly.Rte66BBQ wrote Wed Nov 23, 2022 9:38 pm:IMO there have only been 2 super can't miss prospects at QB since I've been paying attention to the draft. Tha's Luck and Elway. Everyone else had some knocks on them.

He was. But I wish remember the discussion everywhere of Peyton or Ryan leaf.rich72 wrote Thu Nov 24, 2022 2:30 am: Peyton manning was regarded pretty highly.

Correct. Though he was highly thought of as a prospect, he wasn't a can"t miss guy, and there was an actual Manning/Leaf question of who should go firstvtraider wrote Thu Nov 24, 2022 3:18 am:He was. But I wish remember the discussion everywhere of Peyton or Ryan leaf.

It’s really not who it’s what. I like Levis. But we need to replace Carrs production with similar for about 1/4-1/3 of the cost. Shouldn’t be that difficult.HesterLayes » Thu Nov 24, 2022 5:40 am
Carr is having a decent year,but handing off to Jacobs twenty times and throwing 10 times to Adams isn’t a difficult gig.Raidernation1979 wrote Thu Nov 24, 2022 5:31 am:It’s really not who it’s what.

He has Etienne and Kirk, both are weapons. Zay and Evan Ingram are good secondary targets. He is among the least sacked QB in the league. He can turn it around but other than Davonte vs Kirk his weapons and line are better than anything the Raiders offer.HesterLayes wrote Wed Nov 23, 2022 8:50 pm:I’d take Lawrence in a second.He has had no weapons and a crap team.Bad coaching too until this year.
