If we release Carr what would you think of bringing back Jameis? [Mod edit]

And we have too many “missing pieces” now to do so in this draft when you consider our current QB Room’s potential and that 1971 class. This year’s QB class isn’t close to last year’s or the 1971 class — Plunkett, Archie and Dante Pastorini were all significantly better potential-wise than Ward or Shedeur are now. If we were set at most other positions, then it might be worth the risk. But we’re simply nowhere close to that being the case. And blowing a Top 10 pick simply because you haven’t drafted a QB in the first round for more than 50 years (except the fact we did with Dave Wilson in the 1981 supplemental draft, costing us our No. 1 pick in 1982 — we drafted Lindsay Scott with a No. 1 pick — the Chargers’ pick we received as part of th e Wes Chandler trade. We also got the Chargers’ third-round pick in 1982 along with WR Aundra Thompson) makes no sense. The point still holds true for more than 40 years. You don’t do just because you haven’t for so long.
That's exactly when teams draft a QB.
