Look, I know he hasn't shown squat over his short career, but damn he is a helluva an athlete. He's a F/A, why not sign him to compete with Bennett for QB # 3? I don't think we'd have anything to lose, and maybe he would improve enough under Sean and Matthew that he could move up to #2 in '26? If that worked like that then maybe he could become our starter after that. I think we're paying Jimmy G. $11 mil to hold a clipboard this year (yeah, he IS good insurance) but I don't really see a downside to it unless they see more promise in a QB in the mid to late rounds.
Can't remember who it was on here, but one guy wanted us to sign Zac Wilson (who has since signed) which I also thought was a good idea. Look at the QB's who are now valued that were considered busts just three years ago; Gino Smith; Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold. Teams are learning to be more patient with the young QB's. I think Trey is still very young.

No way, there's a reason nobody wants him. Rather draft a kid in the later rounds than sign him. Plus it would be cheaper.

He sucks

[Dare]

Let's see he failed in offenses with less requirements in terms of making reads and plays so the Rams need him?

My only question is why? Better off bringing Wolford back.

Seems like McVay and Shanahan have similar ideas when it comes to what they want in a QB. If he washed out in SF, i kind of doubt McVay would be interested.

But, as always, who knows...

[HarRam]

I say "why not?" Yeah, he's bombed but he's young and has the physical capabilities . Sean McVay may just be the coach the doctor ordered. I certainly see him more of a possibility than Stetson Bennett, who i think showed he is not starter material. In fact, I don't see why he's even on the team except for being a practice arm. Bring him in now. What do we have to lose?

Just three years ago, we signed a then released (and viewed as a bust) QB Baker Mayfield on a Tuesday and after only a couple of days with us, he started and beat the Raiders late in the 4th qtr that very week.
That ONE game changed Tampa Bay's view of him enough to sign and give him a chance the next season. Now he's getting big money there and is questionably a top ten starting QB, in a quality O, in the NFL. How many of you, that week we were sooo desperate and signed him, thought he would develop into what he has? I'd bet that is close to 0%, right? I mean, what the hell? Later, in an interview, Baker credited McVay for helping him "see the field better" (and Sean only coached him for about two weeks )...and that was after Baker had NFL coaching the previous three years! I'd bet Trey would jump at the chance (for little $$$)to get with Sean in trying to resurrect his career.

Elvis, I agree that Shanahan is similarly gifted as Sean in identifying and developing young QB's......BUT--wasn't it Shanny that traded away three first round picks for Trey, and then, in the same draft, took Purdy on the very last pick in the 7th round? I call that one as "lucky as hell"! As smart as Shanny is, he obviously played that draft back-assward. My biggest point is that it's pretty damn obvious that the NFL teams still are not very consistent at analyzing young QB talent. What IF Drew Bledsoe and Trent Green never got their serious injuries? Would Kurt Warner and Tom Brady have ever gotten their chances, as an UDFA and a 6th rounder?

I hear you safer but i think Lance got a pretty good shake and a long look in SF. They invested a lot in him and still decided it wasn't gonna work. With Prescott down, he had a good opportunity in Dallas and couldn't get it done there either. (But again i think Shanahan's opinion carries more weight with McVay than the Cowboys does.)

Baker wasn't considered a bust with the Rams. He got offered a starting job in Tampa in large part because McVay liked him. Rams weren't gonna start him over Stafford.

[Elvis]

Moot now anyway, Lance signed with Chargers:
