Thoughts on Kellen Mond as our Backup?

[foozool13]

Wanted to see what people thought of having Mond as our backup QB going forward as a developmental prospect? I like the tool this kid has and I think could be a nice QB to have sit behind Tua. You can never have enough QBs.

Issue arises as to where he will go in the draft. Most seem to think round 3. Is that too rich for Miami? Given we have 4 picks round 1 & 2, I would think about it round 3, but ideally want him day 3.

Given the hype he got from Simms and the exposure he's getting on the networks now, I doubt he'd make even through the 2nd round. I am not opposed to drafting him if he's there for us in our first 2nd round pick. I would take the Stanford QB in the 3rd round .. he strikes me as a real sleeper and the most heavily high school recruited QB back in the day.

 

[BONG SHULA]

We have too many needs to draft a QB in rounds 1-3 this year. I'm good with taking a developmental QB to sit behind Tua in rounds 2 or 3, but this isn't the year to do it.

 

[Fin-Loco]

Never heard of him.

 

[Avigatorx]

Highly underrated and overlooked.

I'd spend a day 3 pick on him if he's still there.

I was all for Brock Purdy (Iowa St) as an understudy, but, he went back to school

That said, I would not protest if they acquired Ian Book on day 3

 

[Kebo]

If he is there in round 5, yes

 

[Fin Thirteen]

Davis Mills or leave it to snag a late round flyer guy.

 

[Digital]

Sure I'd take him in round 5 through 7 ... but he'll be long gone. We have a lot of holes that need filling, and we're going to look to fill them with BPA level talent that is there in this draft. Mond would be a luxury pick, and we don't really have room for a luxury pick.

We have a backup QB. His name is Jacoby Brissett.

 

[LargoFin]

I like him. Makes good decisions, does not throw a lot of picks. And has a big arm and can run. Any time you can get that it's a good thing.

 

[PHINANALYST]

IF we were to go that route, I would very much prefer MILLS ... though it is pretty doubtful that he lasts til day 3 ...

I like kellen mond. I think he’s a better QB than Trey Lance

Davis mills I don’t get the train that’s taking off there. He’s now getting first round hype. I think mond and Jamie Newman are superior QBs to Davis mills

 

[Danny]

only room for two QB's these days and we already have both so drafting a QB would be a waste

If, by "going forward," you mean a backup starting 2021, won't happen. I doubt Flo will want to dress 3 QBs and he will want a vet as backup/advisor. If you mean long-term, I 'm fine with one of 4-5 names, Mond being in the mix.
