Carr and Manziel are the only prospects I think have potential other than Bridgewater coming out this draft and Carr could very well turn into his brother while Manziel is going to have injury and interception problems, and I wouldn't spend a top 5 pick in the draft on either of them in the first place, and Caldwell probably wouldn't do that. So as far as I see it we're screwed out of a QB again unless Carr or Manziel (or maybe even Tajh Boyd) fall to the second round.
We could really end up winning 5 games or something at this rate and be completely out of the top 5 picks altogether. This team really needs talent and if we're not careful we'll win our way out of getting a chance at top talent at the most important positions altogether. i'd really rather see us lose out the rest of the way than win anymore.

There are a couple of weeks left of College Football left as well the bowl games afterwards so I think it is too quick to judge on these Quarterbacks. While yes, aside from Mariota, these Quarterbacks I listed are not top 5 picks. However, they are the ones with the ideal body size and basic attributes to shaped into an ideal form. I rate Carr highly, if we trade back to get him and a bonus of a first round and extra picks I will accept that. However there are more options for us.
