Yep. Minshew is probably my pick as well in terms of talent and personality.

I would not lose sleep over having Flacco in the QB room either...

I wouldn't either but I think you'll have to wait for the QB1 options play out before Flacco becomes available to sign as a QB2. There's lots of talk that he's the "fallback QB1 FA" for some of these teams that don't have a viable QB1 and limited options out there such as Rodgers, Wilson. Waiting for Flacco would cost time and availability of other options. as they get picked up.

Think it may come down to who can be the best mentor / friend to JJ and hope he doesn't get hurt. As with most teams, your odds aren't good if you're playing your backup QB.Cross off Rodgers and Wilson as good mentors.
Aaron Rodgers
Russell Wilson
Jameis Winston
Joe Flacco
Gardner Minshew
Drew Lock
Carson Wentz
Mason Rudolph
Cooper Rush
Desmond Ridder
Trey Lance
Case Keenum
Easton Stick
Taylor Heinicke
Brandon Allen
Josh Johnson
C.J. Beathard

He looked totally cooked last year.

I've heard that he was waived with an injury designation. His shoulder isn't fully healed yet.

Via Graziano at ESPN, league sources believe Rodgers wants to play for 2 more years and the three options are believed to be the Vikings, Giants and Steelers

League sources=agents peddling baloney in service to various agendas. Rodgers is not coming here.
