Thread title is a bit overstated, but let's change 'KNOW' into Strongly Believe.

Based on what we've seen, I've got 2 guys, both of whom will likely be gone when we draft or will basically wreck our draft to move up and draft at 1-3. Burrow and Tua.

Outside of that, I feel NO Certainty that any of these other guys will definitely be better than Josh Rosen. Which of them are better athletes? Hurts? Which of them have a better arm? Anyone?

The knocks on Herbert are nearly identical to the knocks on Rosen.

Unless Tua falls in our lap at 5, I'm looking at another position with our #5 pick. We showed that we couldn't get within sniffing distance of he QB on defense 95% of the time. We also had a Horrible running game. Those are Much bigger needs for us than QB and outside of Burrow and Tua, I don't see anything close to a 'franchise QB' here with the other guys and anyone outside these 2 will be just a ridiculous reach.

you are basing this on two drafts ago. Since being drafted 10, he has sucked. Kyler Murray proved to be the better move and when you have a team willing to move one from him a year later, in this league with all the scouts, it means something. We have him for a few more years, cheap. I just don't think Miami is wiling to close the door at QB this year and just let him play
 
Burrow, Tua, Love, and Herbert.

Then again I didn't think Rosen was worth a 1st round pick in 2018.
 
Ask this question instead: How many of the 2020 QB's would you trade Rosen for?

Burrow
Tua
Herbert
Love
 
Where was Rosen weak? Reading defenses and making quick decisions. Why do you think Herbert and Love are going to be better at this?

Rosen is a more traditional pocket passer where as Herbert and Love have much better mobility. This allows them to extend plays and mask some of these flaws.

Problem is still reading and understanding those defenses.

Agreed and that he waits for guys to get open instead of throwing with anticipation. Also Herbert's big flaw and Josh Allen for Buffalo has the same issue. Allen gets away with it due to his arm strength and half the time he just tucks and runs.
 
The answer is I don't know. As a fan, I definitely wanted to see more of Rosen and get a better read on him.

I understand why the coaching staff was reluctant to play him and I do wonder how Flores and Grier really feel about Rosen.

As far as college tape goes, both Tua and Burrows have shown more. I think Rosen is probably close to Herbert and Love as a prospect. Herbert and Love offer better athletic ability. Rosen was more accurate. Arm strength probably close.

Leadership is where I really don't know. That seems to be the knock on Rosen.
 
It doesn’t matter who the QB is without a running game or pass rush our entire draft strategy should be on improving these areas. All of the top prospects look good because they come from teams/programs that have both. Case in point, Tannehill.
