POST #11 If Wentz is a team's number one QB, I agree he would not finish the season. But as a backup only needed for a small handful of games, he should be fine. And he would be better than anything McVay has had at backup. I would like to see him stick around and give him a shot at trying to revive his career. He could win us a game or two if Stafford goes down for a short period like this year. I don't want to invest a premium pick for a guy who's gonna sit 3 years. Then you only have him 2 full years till he's up for a big contract. If you're using a top ten pick on a quarterback he needs to be playing sooner than later. Having a quarterback for a few years on a rookie salary is what teams love to have. If he's any good they can build around him. Stafford's not going anywhere. Best to use the pick for either a trade down to have more resources while still building. Or find your cornerstone left tackle or premier edge rusher. A pick between 10-15 is worth a pick in the low 20's and low 50's according to the trade calculator. Trading down has been Snead's M.O. Could get an extra second out of it. by 69RamFan 1 year 7 months ago Total posts: 3592 Joined: Oct 15 2016 LA CA by way of NY/NJ Superstar Does anyone see them using their first round pick on a QB next April?

POST #14 Youngblood22 wrote:A new QB draft pic won't sit for 3 years. Stafford will get hurt, bank on it. I think Stafford is great, but long in the tooth, he won't last 3 more years.Based on what, exactly? The guy has been in the NFL since 2009 and most years, he gets "hurt". But since his second season (2010), when he missed 13 games (as a young man), he's played the maximum number of games 10 times in 13 seasons. The total number of games he's missed? 16 (8 in 2019, 7 last year and 1 this year). Logic suggests, yeah he's older and injuries are harder to recover from but he's tough as nails and manages to play through them, sometimes very well too. Just an opinion but I think betting he won't last 3 more years is not a wager I would take. Even if he didn't last 3 years, only 2, you want a young stud high draft pick riding the pine in 2024 and 2025? Get him playing in year 3 and deciding whether or not to pick up his 5th year option after his only season as a #1 QB? That's betting on a guy who plays a position where the overwhelming percentage fail. Screw QB in 2024. Resign Wentz and get a kid in the 2025 draft, let him ride the pine one season and that gives the Rams 2 years to decide if he's the real deal. I'd take the Allur from Penn St. I'd also try to grab one of those 2 stud RBs they have. Been following the horns since the Coliseum had a Roman playing there.

Nobody is suggesting "wait until he retires, then draft a QB". The thought process is 'have the rookie drafted before his final season'. Of course I realize some fans are all ga-ga over the many 'can't miss' QB prospects in the 2024 draft, they would like to see Stafford around for just 1 more season.

Nobody is suggesting "wait until he retires, then draft a QB". The thought process is 'have the rookie drafted before his final season'. Of course I realize some fans are all ga-ga over the many 'can't miss' QB prospects in the 2024 draft, they would like to see Stafford around for just 1 more season. I'd like him around just a bit longer. Even with all the studs waiting to dominate the NFL. And, 50% of those “can’t miss” QB studs are going to be complete misses. So your odds are 50/50 on a franchise QB who would sit for 2 years. No thanks. Also, a really good QB is going to drop a la Mr. Levis last draft. Maybe they do draft a guy this draft. Just not with their first pick. Possibly in the trade down scenario. But he still sits the first half of his first contract if Staff stays healthy. The contenders usually have a vet back-up at QB - to get them through a few games without losing too much. Re-sign Wentz for exactly that purpose and worry about your future….in the future. by PARAM 1 year 7 months ago Total posts: 13221 Joined: Jul 15 2015 Just far enough North of Philadelphia Hall of Fame Does anyone see them using their first round pick on a QB next April?

There are so many "hot" prospects supposedly coming out..... Caleb, Maye, Penix, Nix, McCarthy, etc....I can't see all of them coming off the board in the first. Maybe the Rams grab one in the 2nd. Maybe the Rams trade down so somebody can take #3 or #4, then turn around and grab #5 or #6 AND still have another 2nd round pick for a stud. So far to go before the picture is in focus.
