Are you looking for a new QB? check out this list!

Posted on October 10, 2012 at 01:06 PM.

Are you a bad team looking for a new QB or maybe your starter is getting up in age and its time to look for his replacement, well here are a few QBs worth checking out.

Scheme - West Coast Offense
QB - Pat Devlin
HT - 6'3
WT - 225
Age - 24
College - Delaware
NFL - Dolphins

If you are running a West Coast Offense, Pat Devlin is your guy. He is currently the 3rd string QB on the Dolphins depth chart, you can probably acquire him for a mid round pick. Devlin comes in with 68 speed, 69 agility and 73 acceleration. Those attributes are almost perfect for a WCO QB, he is by know means fast, but he has great mobility and can pick up the 1st down on 3rd & 6 with his feet. Devlin may only have 79 throw power but it doesn't matter, Devlin has an outstanding 87 short throw accuracy, in the right offense with WRs who have high catch in traffic and a RB who can catch and run... Pat Devlin will nickel and dime you down the field.

Scheme - Vertical offense
QB - Ryan Mallett
HT - 6'6
WT - 238
Age - 24
College - Arkansas
NFL - Patriots

"We don't take what the defense gives us; we take whatever the hell we want." - Al Davis.... If you are running a vertical offense that quote by Al Davis pretty much sums up what kind of style of play you want from your QB. If you like stretching the field and have the speed at WR to do it... Ryan Mallett is your guy. Mallett has a cannon for an arm he comes in with 98 throw power. Make sure you have good pass blockers up front though, so you have time to sit in the pocket to throw those big bombs, not to mention Mallett only has 51 speed, so he isn't running anywhere. If you would like to acquire the services of Ryan Mallett, it will most likely cost you a few high draft picks.

NFL Comparison - Drew Bledsoe

--------

Scheme - Power/Zone Run
QB - Jimmy Clausen
HT 6'2
WT - 222
Age - 24
College - Notre Dame
NFL - Panthers

If you are a running team and when I say that, I mean running the ball 30+ times a game and you can get by with above average QB play, check out Jimmy Clausen he comes in with some interesting attributes. He has below average mobility with 57 speed, 65 agility & acceleration but you can still move around him. Clausen has solid 88 throw power, his short,middle,deep accuracy are all in the 70's... He even has 75 throw on the run... This all adds up to Jimmy Cluasen having the potential to be a solid field general or game manager. So if you are a team that like to pound the rock and just need a QB to manger your game, give Clausen a look...it shouldn't cost too much to trade for him.

I would add Terrelle Pryor to this list. I'm running with the Browns using the Panthers playbook. He fills the Cam Newton role very well with a 90 speed.

yo hey guys how many CC modes are u actually running. i have 2 a player one where im playing with barry sanders. (which i feel as playing with one player is kind of boring) and another "franchise" with the denver broncos. so this helped me because i am going to be looking for a new qb soon seeing as peyton manning can retire whenever he wants. thanks man. (i played preseason with brock osweiler, and let me tell u. he is under rated dude can ball)
