You don't think Anthony Gordon is at least worth a Draft pick?
I would put Gordon in the same tier with Fromm maybe slightly lower, in that he has a solid floor. Could be a game manager type QB, he has some confidence and poise and experience throwing the ball at high volume attempts. He has shown the ability to stay in and take a hit to convert a 3rd down, and has decent accuracy on short to intermediate throws.
for instance if he goes to a team like the Steelers he would instantly be a better Emergency plan than Duck Hodges, or Mason Rudolph. I honestly wouldn't even mind taking him if he's still around in the 5th round.
To me Burrow, and Tua (given healthy) are the only true "franchise" Quarterbacks in this Draft; and they should both presumably go top 3.
IMO people are way too high on Herbert... I have him with a 2nd round grade personally; but I understand Quarterbacks rise and get valued at a premium so it won't surprise me to see him go top 15. Just didn't see enough from him in big time pressure situations against good teams. He has the physical tools but was very sheltered in a bubble screen Offense, that focused on the run. I think he's going to be a Ryan Tannehill / to Andy Dalton level QB.
Jordan Love & Eason... ehh not too big on. To me they are just guys with big time arms with questionable decision making. These guys will need a lot of patient coaching and development, but some teams will fall in love with their throwing velocity.
Everyone else back-up material, developmental. Practice squad, camp arms.
