    So we'll still have crappy LBs, TEs, and safeties

    Running back needs to be a priority as Arian is on his last legs.

    Need to find a QB that can stick. Grab 3 of them, have them face off against Savage in training camp…then cut the crappiest of the bunch.

    His scouting report is similar to Bridgewater.

    I'd take that. Goff is a decent athlete also.

    6'4 215 with terrific arm, excellent touch and has yet to throw a pick in the redzone in his college career...

    6'5" 250, cannon arm, good touch, extremely mobile despite the size. - Physically he's Ben Rothlesberger/Cam Newton.

    There's a lot there to work with - maybe the best set of tools among the candidates. In the NFL meat market, someone's going to pick him very high.

    Maybe worth a flier as an undrafted free agent. Maybe a practice squad caliber guy who can play TE or something.

    Goff is similar to Bridgewater in that they're both smart, accurate, are skilled at reading defenses, and in that they both have a good but not great arm.

    They're different in that Goff is bigger (no size concerns) and plays in an Air Raid offense unlike TB who was running a pro style offense at Louisville.

    He was also benched on Saturday. Don't even know at the moment if he'll start next week.

    Raw tools mean jack squat IMO, at least high in the draft. JaMarcus Russell had tools.
