How many teams are desperate for a young QB?

Good year to need a QB, crappy year to be a mediocre team.

The schedule is brutal and so is our team.

How many win do you think we have rest of season?

New Orleans Saints
Los Angeles Rams
Buffalo Bills
Washington
Dallas Cowboys
Arizona Cardinals
Seattle Seahawks

Washington and Dallas seem like the only two we can expect to compete in. So we're probably a 4-6 win team at the end of the year.

6 wins would've been a top ten pick last year but we have so many bad teams ahead of us this year and our SOS will be so high that we will probably end up outside the top ten at that mark.

Guess we'll find out, but it's 2020 so I'm pretty resigned to winning 4 games and somehow managing to stay at pick 15.

4. NY Giants - They'll give Jones another year, much bigger holes to fill on that roster.
5. Washington - Lance
6. Los Angeles (how are the Chargers with Herbert, Keenan Allen, Melvin Ingram, Hunter Henry, etc this bad?!?)
7. Miami (Houston's pick)
8. Cincinnati
9. Carolina
10. Atlanta (they'll never suck bad enough to get the franchise edge rusher they need)
11. Detroit
12. Minnesota
13. New England
14. Denver
15. San Francisco
16. Chicago

Chargers just keep finding ways to lose games. They should be .500 or a game below. We could possibly look into them as a potential trade partner to move up in the draft to grab Z. Wilson.

Hope they keep losing, like you said, gives the niners a possible trade partner. Same goes for the Bengals.

I'm not so sure. They can't run the football and sustain drives.
Can see the Vikings, Chargers going on late season runs.

Bengals and Panthers have some winnable games for sure.

Would love Miami (via Houston), Bengals, Chargers to be in tradeable positions for us.

If Minnesota wins tomorrow and NE wins tonight SF could move from 15 to 12.

Still not high enough to get a QB, and low key CAR is a darkhorse to draft a QB even though Bridgewater is under contract for 2 more years at $20M per.

Panthers aren't losing because of their QB. D is terrible and that's where they'll go IMO.

Teddy has always been terrible - don't know what Carolina see's in him.

Week 11:

1. NY Jets - New coach won't be tied to Darnold
2. Jacksonville - Gardner Minshew
3. Washington -- Obvious
4. Dallas - Looks like another Franchise Tag for Dak
5. Chargers - Herbert
6. Miami (from Houston) - Tua
7. Cincinnati - Burrow
8. NY Giants - Daniel Jones
9. Carolina - Bridgewater is just a bridgeNew England - Obvious
10. Atlanta - Ryan has a HUGE deal, but only if they commit to a rebuild
11. Denver - Drew Lock is showing some signs of life
12. San Francisco
13. Detroit - Stafford is still in his prime, but there will probably be a regime change there
14. Minnesota
15. New England
16. Chicago

It won't be easy to get a QB. It never is.

Jacksonville will dump Minshew for Fields in a hot second and I really doubt that Dallas tags Prescott yet again with the salary cap expected to go down. If you're going to move on from Dak Prescott, Justin Fields or Zach Wilson would both make a lot of sense.

Jets/Jacksonville/Washington being top 3 is a big no no for us.

I don't know if Wilson will do enough to jump to top 3 but all 3 have clear QB needs. Jets do have Darnold but they'll easily push him aside for a prospect like Lawrence.

Have a bad feeling when it's said and done Chicago will also be picking ahead of us. Those 4 teams are easily the clear QB need.

We need a few teams with young promising QBs to get into the top 5 to give us better options.

Great job by New England, Detroit, Minnesota, and Atlanta pushing SF down in the draft order and for f**king up my Webzone Pick'em this week!

The only benefit to this, is that Cincinnati and Dallas have moved into the 3rd and 4th picks respectively. Neither will be needing QBs, so depending upon where we end up in the final drafting order we may have a trade partner to move up and get us a QB. Well, don't know what Dallas will do, but hopefully they'll be resigning Dak.

Even though we dropped to 14th I don't think we're any worse off.

The Patriots and Lions were only behind us because they had played one less game. Our SOS was always better. The Panthers SOS is higher than ours and we're only behind them because they've played an extra game so if we keep losing that will sort itself out.

Cowboys winning is a good thing too. Moves them to 3 wins and I can't see Cinci winning another game so they'll stay in 3rd spot to block Washington out of top 3.

Vikings losing is only temporary. Their schedule isn't very daunting. They should pick up some wins and hopefully more than us.

Atlanta - yeah f**k em.

Week 12, provided we lose to the Rams we've got....

Lions v Texans - whoever wins that falls behind us
Cowboys v Washington - Winner joins us on 4 wins (and we play both still)
Vikings v Panthers - Whoever wins falls behind us
Bengals v Giants - Giants likely to join us on 4 wins, but you never know

The wildcard in all of this is that the Eagles will likely no longer be leading the division after next week so they will slot in ahead of us somewhere.

I think we lose our next 2 (Rams, Bills) and then after that the Cows/Washington games will decide whether top 10 is a genuine chance or just a dream.
