2027 Free Agency QB Projections
I know we're in a good position this year, but the fact is, we will still need a QB next year. Outside of the draft, there's a lot of potentially good QBs available in free agency and trades. I started thinking about this because of the rumors of Herbert being traded and the reality that we might be more interested in free-agent QBs vs. someone who might be available in the draft. Would you be interested or excited about any of these players?
Justin Herbert - Trade possibility, and might not even be that much trade value
C.J. Stroud - Trade or potentially free agent
Davis Mills - Free agent after this year, and the Texans either let him or Stroud go
Cam Ward - Talk of moving on from him has started; might be available for a second
Geno Smith - Free agent after this year, and he's been decent if he's got a decent O-line
Jared Goff - Heard murmurs about the Lions moving on from him in a trade; not sure how realistic this is, but who knows
Marcus Mariota - Free agent, could be a transitional QB for our rookie
Mac Jones - Free agent after this year; QBs coming off of the 49ers bench have shown to be rehabbed QBs and could be an option for a short-term solution
Drew Lock - Looked decent in the few spots he's come off the bench as a Seahawk, and he is a free agent next season
Bring back DW4 - I hate this one as much as the next guy, but the fact is, if he's solid all year, he could come back for a second deal to be the transitional QB
