I think Sean wants a QB that can make plays with his feet when plays break down. Sellers at 240 lbs can do that. Not saying he is their top choice but it seems they are definitely interested. Dane Brugler who I respect has him as his number 7 overall prospect on his big board right now. BTW the Rams were represented at Ohio St/ Texas as well yesterday.

Absolutely, they'll more than consider it, and they should. Shough is not some kid who needs time to develop; he's going to turn twenty-six in September. He's a whole month older than Trevor Lawrence (who was a kid who needed time to develop) and a whole year older than the quarterback he lost the competition to (Rattler). He's been injured in a lot of his college seasons and ineffective in others; it was really only last year where he broke out, and that was against much younger competition.

The Saints absolutely will consider drafting a quarterback with their first round pick in 2026, and they should.
Yep, if Sellers is sitting there at their pick, and is considered a top caliber QB prospect, they would have to take him.

I also think in regards to the Rams, if McVay really likes one or two QBs of lets say five guys that could go top 40, I think they do whatever possible to get one of those two players. He obviously values that QB position so high, so to find a kid that he wants to work with, that he feels has what it takes, they will move heaven and earth to get that kid even if it's a massive overpay, in regards to trade capital, to do so.

Now if there is not one or two guys who stands out to him, then I also don't see him forcing a pick just to take a QB. That player will have to meet a high bar to play that position in a McVay offense.

Not being a smart ass here but based on what?

I would agree that would be a nice thing to have but IMHO, in McVay's offense, making plays on schedule, from the pocket is far more important......and far more desireable.

We'll see.

We also believe we know what they need, how they're thinking and what will happen but in truth we're totally guessing.

They're just as likely to go WR/CB as they are QB/LT with their first round picks.

Yeah, it's like having a "must have list' and a "nice to have list" when shopping for a car or a house. In this case, mobility is a nice to have option, versus the ability to deliver the ball on time from the pocket and the arm strength to drive the ball, are must haves.

You don't remember this past draft with what was reported as a large amount of time spent with Jalen Milroe? I believe there was another mobile QB they were checking out as well. At the time it was reported that Sean was looking for mobile QBs. Those were the reports anyway.

Sure I remember they met with Milroe. Was it "a large" amount of time? Was it a decoy meeting? They passed on Milroe three times. Once in the first when they traded down, once in the 2nd and 3rd. The Rams were "rumored" to be interested in a QB. So maybe they met with one to keep that rumor alive. And many swallowed that hook, line and sinker......even added to it by proclaiming McVay was now interested in a mobile QB. Sam Leavitt in 2026!!!!
