Re: Young quarterbacks
Bortles, Cousins, Carr
Think Johnny football will eventually become a good QB, once he matures. Bortles is built like Big Ben. I think that's his ceiling. Cousins has been solid this year. I think he's at or near his ceiling however. Carr likely has more potential. Mariotta will have his moments, but is too slight imo to stay on the field consistently. Winston still needs some maturing in my mind.

Re: Young quarterbacks
Cousins has played MVP caliber ball for most of the 2nd half of the season. And he'll only get better next year when he actually gets an off season's worth of starter's reps(he wasn't named the starter and didn't get starter reps until after the 3rd pre season game)and hopefully gets Desean Jackson for 16 games instead of just half like this year. Oh, and imagine what he could do with an actual running game...

Re: Young quarterbacks
I'm a carr believer because I liked his brother and was praying we took him in the second round
Also like mariota, don't like Winston but he seems to have talent
Absolutely hate manziel, called him a bust before the draft because I knew he was a cocky prick (I went to a&m until I transferred to u of h) and he was dating the sister of someone I went to highschool with....he's arrogant and has that "affluenza" or something because I have never heard a good thing about him from people that know him...I could be wrong and it's wrong to judge people, but I am not a saint and I have heard too many stories of him being a douche

Oh also have always been an osweiller fan, I just love Peyton so I was hoping he'd suck so it didn't make Peyton look as bad

Re: Young quarterbacks
cousins is young? he is in his prime years. manziel is crap, garappolo and mccarron has shown nothing.
winston has the most upside and he'll be one of the best qbs in the league if he can control the off the off field stuff. carr will be an upper echelon guy. mariota, bortles, bridgewater all very close but i like bortles as the third guy, feel like he has done a good job considering what he has to work with.

Re: Young quarterbacks
True, Cousins is older than Wilson. Garappolo and Mccarron are career backups imo.

Re: Young quarterbacks
Winston, Mariota and Carr. Yep, tough to not mention Teddy.

Re: Young quarterbacks
I think Teddy will be in the top 3 when all said and done.PFF tweeted he is pressured on 46.7% of his drop backs. Eventually the o-line will get better.

Re: Young quarterbacks
I'm not sure Manziel will ever play another game. I probably like Winston the best.

Re: Young quarterbacks
I'm going by playing time. Cousins hasn't had much playing time. McCarron put up decent numbers in Cinncinati, so I may as well include him.

Re: Young quarterbacks
27 for a QB is young. Most QBs dont peak until after 30.

Hackenberg was also once a phenomenon before the Penn State program took a different direction.

Re: Young quarterbacks
Derrick Carr is head and shoulders above them all. I'm predicting he will be the one that ends up the most successful.

Re: Young quarterbacks
This year's draft. I like the kid from Washington State. I can't remember his name off the top of my head right now.

Re: Young quarterbacks
Besides Carr, I was really impressed with A.J. McCarron. Love to have him in Dallas.

Re: Young quarterbacks
Carr, Winston, Bridgewater in that order. Carr could become a very good QB if his team continues to improve as it has the last two years. Winston will probably never have a good team around him, and Bridgewater just has something about him that I like.

He'll never be the answer, regardless of his off the field antics.
