Calling my shot
If im wrong im wrong but I think Drew Allar is QB1 next year or soon after. The more I chew on it the more I see some clues he’s going to flourish especially sitting a year. I’ve officially left the 1st found QB train for next year.
I agree Howard is ready sooner, Rodgers is a hall of famer, Mason is more ready and tougher but I don’t think anyone can argue Allar is either the best passer of the football or just behind Rodgers in that regard on the team. He’s the weakest QB but that can be coached. If Tomlin was the coach I would not make this claim but with McCarthy I see the future guy.
I would not have him start a single game over anyone I mentioned this year but I really value (perhaps overly so) a QB who can make big time throws and unfortunately Howard and Mason just don’t have the arm for that. I say go get him a WR maybe RB in round 1 next year give him the keys and if he listens to McCarthy it’s golden.
