D521646 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Seriously, does anyone believe that any of these guys, barring injury will win the day one starting job this year? I sure as hell don't. Which begs the question: Why were 5 QB's taken in the first round.. LOL Tim- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I do Darnold should start day one. Mayfield has a good chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cle23 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I'd bet 1 or 2 start day 1. That's never "the plan" but always seems to work out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanbillsfan2206 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Maybe Darnold. Everyone else, no way 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddy KGB Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Mayfield by week 4 Darnold by week 10 Rosen as soon as Bradford gets hurt Allen is the wildcard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Tim- I think they'll need to earn the job in training camp, but IMO it's very likely that Darnold and Rosen start, and that Mayfield comes in partway through the season (possibly after Hue Jackson gets fired) Allen may start partway through the season, but if so it will possibly be because McCarron is struggling and the coaches are desperate, not because he's ready But I'd like to be surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I can't name one, but I would imagine at least two of them will start at least some games this year. If AJ wins the job but sucks, I expect we would see Allen for the last few games. Same deal with Darnold or Mayfield if their teams get eliminated from the playoffs.

Boatdrinks Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I believe one, possibly two will. The rest will wait varying amounts of time depending on their development, team needs and record. It's no surprise that they were drafted this year, in round one because that's the round you need to take a QB if you want one. They are highly sought after commodities. Next years draft looks to be thin at QB, and this is not lost on GMs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Nothing about the McCarron signing screamed "that's our guy" IMO. I think all 5 are going to have a chance to win jobs early. Every year it's "Wentz is going to sit behind Daniel" or "Winston is going to sit behind Glennon" or "Watson and Trubinsky are going to sit all year". Then teams either realize in the preseason or quickly into the season the rookie QB is the best chance to win and the change is made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherChazz Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I feel bad for Cardinals fans. After Bradford goes down week 2 with a leg injury, and Rosen goes down Week 4 with a concussion, Mike Glennon will be starting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D521646 Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 Darnold has to beat out veterans BW, and McGowen, I doubt it. Mayfield will have to beat out the already anointed, TT in Cleveland, not happenin. Allen, surprisingly might be the only one of the lot that has a chance, but even this I doubt. AJ has been second fiddle to Dalton for 4 years, he ain't giving it up easily. Tim- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Hue Jackson continues to lose withy that roster, yeah, Hue IS the problem. Tim- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthNYfan Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Just now, Seanbillsfan2206 said: Maybe Darnold. Everyone else, no way -Bradford probably won't make it through preseason without getting hurt for the season, so Rosen probably will start based on that alone lol -Darnold most likely will be groomed by McCown, and they will throw Teddy to the wolves until he's ready. -Mayfield and Tyrod are making about the same $$ I think, but I'm sure they will bring him in slowly. -Every report I've seen has Allen "competing for a starting job" but I think that's not a testament to the lack of confidence people have in AJ vs confidence in Allen to be ready. -Jackson might start at wr for them day one, jkjk. I think Darnold has the least chance of starting only because of the other two on the roster. 8 minutes ago, D521646 said: Seriously, does anyone believe that any of these guys, barring injury will win the day one starting job this year?

Many high QBs don't start day one, or at least they shouldn't, since it's the biggest learning curve of any position when moving from college to NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Nathan Peterman started a game in the NFL last year. It's very possible all of these guys start games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
