did sorsby declare for the supplemental draft - cuz i thought they said he could go back to school

if he's choosing the draft over school I'm guessing he might know who wants him and where he might be going - idk - i haven't been keeping up
What's wrong with you, not keeping up? :thewave: :p

The Cardinals’ crowded QB room shouldn’t matter one iota when evaluating Brendan Sorsby. Trade Jacoby, keep four quarterbacks, whatever.

This is about the long-term, and if you love Sorsby’s game, draft him and then figure it out.

I have my doubts the NFL will approve this Brendan Sorsby appeal for the supplemental draft. Every team is mandated to have training for their players in regards to the dangers of gambling the NFL takes it very seriously and they make sure the players know they can NOT participate. Some former players along with an NFL lawyer visit teams to warn about the dangers and consequences. Currently if you bet on your own team automatic 2-year minimum suspension. If you bet on other games 1-year minimum. Now Sorsby was not in the NFL but still I could see them making him do much more extensive treatment before allowing him in. Time will tell.

I think this guy is really similar to Jalen Hurts play style wise.

I would consider a third or a fourth the right spot for the risk

Here is the argument likely being made in the front office.

You take Sorsby like round 3. You get rid of Jacoby and let Minshew start early. Then later in the season you let the rookies play and see how it shakes out.

If either Beck or Sorsby show potential during a lost season, you are selling that pick for a ransom that way outweighs the 3rd you gave up now.

If neither works out, you take another stab at QB. All it cost you was one of the round 3 picks Monti lights on fire every year anyway

I'm guessing you wouldn't be using a 2027 1st rounder on a QB and it frees them up to take a top player at another position. If Sorsby has a 1st round grade, I'd have no problem taking with a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. Although, it would likely have to be a 2nd.
And, who cares about managing Beck or Minshew? Teams need a top QB to win. I keep hearing his skillset is that of Jay Cutler. If he's not a douchebag like Cutler, I'd take that talent in round 2 every day.
Personally, I think he needs a lot of work and don’t think he is capable of showing enough to make you pass on a franchise qb next year.
