I'm still wrapping my head around just how many QB's seem to be coming out. The game has changed and become more professional at reading defenses down to the High School level, so you are seeing these guys coming from all over, Prescott from a gimmick offense, Wentz from a small school, etc that have the accumen already to get up to speed faster than in the past.
And then this 2017 crop is the mother load, though the couple guys at the top really concern me. I would much rather end up with Garrett and hope that between Garrett, McPhee, Floyd we have at least 100 snaps a game covered at OLB, with some scraps and injury related starts for Young/Acho types.
The QB's I would bring into 2017 are:
1) Hoyer
2) 2017 2nd round pick (Kaaya, Falk, Webb, Kelly) The shear number of guys will actually cause several teams to wait and take value QB. Alot of teams already have young QB's right now. Kizer might come out if there is coaching turmoil, but I could just as easily see him decide to wait a year if the crop is good and deep and he isn't clearly #1, then he should wait. I'd rather put another impact player on the defense or o-line, unless we are absolutely sure. DeShaun Watson sliding is concerning as hell. Take "our" guy, or try our luck with top second round investment.
3) Shaw (hopefully modern science can get him mobile again)
4) 2017 6th or 7th round pick. Don't let UDFA dictate the other young arm we add. Bring our young gun here.
Now...if you fire Fox, promote Fangio, and bring in McDaniels to "build the system" or an OC of that quality, if you have to give them head coach only do so if Fangio will stay. We must remian strong on that side of the ball. We need to build a Bears system and language, stop this changing OC's every 2 years. Gvie these QB's a chance.
The Bears "system" should be designed for the conditions we play on at home.
