Yes. Let's never draft a QB high since they might be a bust and stick with Glennon. Great idea!

For rookies they are progressing and making throws that need to be made. Bridgewater struggled with deep throws last week looked more on target yesterday. Carr forced several throws, but for the most part he utilized his mobility to keep the Seattle defense on their toes.

As I said in another thread: “I’m fine with waiting until 2016 draft to get a QB if an elite LT or pass rushing DE is available.”I don't want Winston here. He'll be in jail and suspended before he make a Pro Bowl. I'm not sold on Mariotta either. That said, the biggest reason I'd rather wait, is because I don't want Smith here with a new QB. No QB ever got better or developed under Lovie Smith. I'd rather wait until the following years draft after Lovie gets fired.

Winston is an A-hole, but I don’t know that I’ve ever seen another QB look like he is throwing a baseball as far accuracy and fitting into tight windows. He definitely would make us better. I don’t know about Mariotta, haven’t watched him enough to have as much of an opinion as others. Given the option, I’d probably take Randy Gregory over both of them and roll with Glennon again next year.

That's not my only issue. I don't really think either will be franchise QB's. But, I'm talking about myself and I what I am hoping for, not necessarily what the team will do. The team will address the roster the best way they see it. My issue is that I don't think they have the coaches in place to maximize the talent. Generally, DE's and LT's can adapt to virtually every scheme, QB's can't. That's why I'm hoping they take a pass rusher or LT.

Yeah, just look at what happened to Alex Smith and the 49ers who went with this series as proof of what happens when you draft a potential franchise QB with the wrong coaching staff.Name me the last time a "franchise QB" was drafted under one coach but actualized him potential with the next coach?

Really? The evidence of this happening is wide-spread throughout the league and it's history. If you don't have the right HC/OC marriage with the right QB, there will NEVER be success. Lovie is the wrong HC for any QB, period. His track record has proven that. He's never developed nor has a QB ever improved under his management. Best to take a DE or LT to help in the trenches for the following season when we have a new HC. Lovie will not last past the 2015 season, that's my guess because he's a terrible HC.

Starting McCown serves literally no purpose. Giving Glennon the rest of the year gives coaches more info on what he is and isn’t so we can make a better decision in the draft. Continue to start Glennon is the right choice, Haters and Lovers alike can agree to that. If he plays like he has then draft a QB and let em fight it out. If Glennon is so bad, Mariota or Winston should easily win the starting spot.

There's a difference between your "QB next year logic" diatribe and my point of view. Last year, I was fine with letting Glennon have at least 1 year to see what he can do. With that, the best way to help him was NOT to draft a QB, but give him weapons to use... which is what this group did... and it's fine. I have no problem with their draft at all. Now, will the players pan out? That's for time to tell.Also, while at this point in time I don't necessarily think Glennon is a franchise QB, I'm not so sure that with good coaching and experience he can't be. He does make some nice throws from time to time and there is potential. I think there's a reasonable chance that he can be a decent starter. Now, if a franchise QB does become available, yes, they should upgrade... the thing is, I'm not so sure that player exists in the upcoming draft. You might, and that's fine, but it doesn't mean that either of us are wrong or right, it's all opinion. I have no interest in drafting the criminal, but Mariotta I believe would be a "slight" upgrade to Glennon. In my opinion, I'd rather have a significant upgrade at DE or LT than a slight one at QB.Plus, I think Lovie will be fired after next season... reason being is that they'll probably only have 2 or 3 wins next year too. I'd rather have the new coach come in with a more informed opinion of Glennon and decide between a him and a rookie. Hopefully someone will realize that we need an offensive minded HC and actually hire him.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. By better candidates, I was referring to coaches not players. That's my bad. Though, to answer the question based on coaches, I'd have to say... any one of them on the planet not named Lovie Smith or have been in Tampa recently is a good place to start.

If we had either Carr or Teddy performing like they currently are this board would be calling them busts.I'm not saying they don't look promising. They both look pretty much like what you would expect a rookie QB to look like. However, if people put these 2 guys under the same microscope Glennon has been under since his first start they wouldn't look so good.If we do draft a rookie QB odds are they will play like a rookie. Will this fanbase have the patience to let them develop? I'm not so sure.I'm not saying that Glennon is a franchise QB. I honestly think its too soon to tell. However, I do think this team's fanbase and media is a big part of why we have never had a franchise QB. Everybody wants Drew Brees in his prime, but few would be will to accept Drew Brees when he was young.

+10000000. This is completely true.I was a big fan of Bridgewater coming out and wanted us to draft him at #7 as I think/thought he was the best QB in the draft, but he definitely has not been good so far this year. He's played alright against terrible defenses and really bad against good defenses. His deep ball accuracy has not been good, and he looks to check down too often and quickly. I honestly haven't seen much of Carr, but the guy is on a winless team and his numbers aren't anything special at all, so it's hard for me to say he's been good. Neither of these guys have been good at all (not saying they suck, they're rookies and struggling in year 1 is expected), but if either one was a Buc playing the same way, they would be getting criticized very heavily by the Red Board.

This overall thread is a big part of why I'm nervous to draft a rookie QB. This fanbase has a habit of downplaying our own players and overstating guys on other teams. If we had either Carr or Teddy performing like they currently are this board would be calling them busts.
LOL ....and this is a FACT.

Bridgewater hasn't looked that good. I wouldn't want him on the Bucs. . and Carr have looked good. I'd take either on the Bucs.Manziel is still the best QB of this class. He just hasn't gotten the chance to play yet. Lovie is a fool.
In my book, any one of those guys would be better than mccown or glennon.Lovie passed on so many qb's that would have been better than what he was trying to sell off to the fans.I've lost all faith in lovie. He's been drinking that tampa water, which apparently robs HC's of their mental faculties.

If we had either Carr or Teddy performing like they currently are this board would be calling them busts.I'm not saying they don't look promising. They both look pretty much like what you would expect a rookie QB to look like. However, if people put these 2 guys under the same microscope Glennon has been under since his first start they wouldn't look so good.If we do draft a rookie QB odds are they will play like a rookie. Will this fanbase have the patience to let them develop? I'm not so sure.I'm not saying that Glennon is a franchise QB. I honestly think its too soon to tell. However, I do think this team's fanbase and media is a big part of why we have never had a franchise QB. Everybody wants Drew Brees in his prime, but few would be will to accept Drew Brees when he was young.
I'm for drafting a QB because I don't think we'll be in a position to draft a top prospect any time soon. I understand that fans are unreasonable though. Bridgewater started out with 5 INTs no TDs. He throws a really terrible deep ball too. He completely overthrew an insanely wide open Patterson last game. In the game against the Bucs, he had an open WR deep and the throw ended up pretty far from him. http://cdn2.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2415980/patterson.0.gifYet you'll have fans who will complain about something insignificant as Glennon throwing a pass at Rainey's feet on a 3rd and long with the goal line at his back. Some of them care about a play like that enough to make it their username. It was a very good possibility that something like that was an intentional play. He was being pressured all day and didn't want to give up a big play near to the end zone, and there was little chance of getting a first down. Glennon hasn't played his best games as of recent, but some fans really go overboard on their criticism.

Lovie is obviously clueless. He had the chance to draft either Manziel or Carr this year and did not.

Glennon was drafted to be a backup and went into this year as a backup. in the process he has 18 starts or so. even his biggest supporters have come to acknowledge he isn't a guy you want as your starter. Before that the only young guys we really gave a chance to were Gradkowski, Sims, KIng and Dilfer. Only Dilfer was a high pick and we gave him 5 years or so. The others were low expectation guys who were all given fair shots.

Seriously, which Buc QB over the last 20 years hasn’t gotten a fair shake to develop? Which one of those guys went on to another team and became much better than they were here? I’ll patiently wait for your response.

It's happened but you have to go back more than 20 years .Two are Vinny and Steve Young.I think Dilfer never got a fair shake also . He never ended up being good , but a majority of fans were booing that poor guy from day 1 , and talk show hosts like DUImeg hated him on a personal level for some strange reason.

Well I became a fan around the time Dilfer was drafted so I can’t really comment on what happened in the 80s but 20 years is a long enough period of time for sammich to prove me wrong.

The team around Vinny sucked , and he was young . He left here to put up borderline hall of fame numbers.
