QBs next year and beyond

Submitted by Yessir on October 10th, 2016 at 6:24 PM

I can't wait for Coach Harbaugh to be knee deep(3 deep) on the depth chart with his recruited QBs. I don't want to compare, because comparing diminishes someone. Who said that?

I'm just looking forward to the time when the roster has the QBs he recruited on it.

Its possible Speight could be drafted with the lack of talented QBs in the NFL. He is improving every week. He's tall and I think he'd be drafted after this year if he continues to improve.

I wouldn't be surprised if Peters is our starting QB next year with McCaffrey in the supporting role, maybe 3rd string? But the year after that and after that and after that will move the team forward with Coach picking the QBs he wants to recruit.

The future is bright.

Spate. I'm sure he meant a spate of QB's will be drafted this year.

We shall see. If he is, that means he beat out Peters twice. Speight has had a nice season, but not dominant enough that Harbaugh won't give others a chance to win the job in each offseason. It's not in his way to gift wrap the job just because of the previous season.

This is for sure. We know that Harbaugh loves Deveon. But that hasn't kept him from giving an increasing number of carries to Evans/Peppers/Isaac. So you can be sure that Peters will have every opportunity to beat out Wilton next year.

I wouldn't be surprised if Peters won the job. That being said, I woudln't be surprised if Speight held onto it, either. The QB's are going to have to elevate their games next year, though, because there isn't going to be much of a secondary coming back.

All in all, I think the position is in great hands, mostly because of Harbaugh.

I dunno if I think he's going to be good enough to keep. His improvements have been slower this year than rudock's last year. He started at a higher bar but if his rate of improvement continues at this pace I don't think he'll be better than end of season rudock by The Game. I am hoping Peters develops into The Truth by next season.

I agree. Speight is the Michigan QB for the next couple years, then Peters takes over.

I could see Peters potentially leap-frogging him. Speight may have already hit his ceiling. He's gonna have to play the game of his life to beat OSU.

That take is luke warm at best, pop it back in the microwave for another minute until you think McCaffrey beats out both Peters and Speight next fall.

Speight is already playing WR when Peppers is QB, and Speight looks better than Randy Moss to me. Better hands, similar speed

Well, he kinda needs to for our offense to take the next step. Or he's still sorta injured. Either way, he's doing ok right now. We shouldn't be expecting a Ruddock-to-Rudock trajectory. Jake had an historical in-season lightbulb come on over his head.

Yep. RS sophomore. 6 starts. Shakey on the short throws. Throws into double coverage. He's got 1st-3rd round Jets or Browns pick written all over him.

Mildly kidding about the round...but after Wentz, can't you see them over correcting and drafting strictly FCS QBs from here out.
