I’m far from convinced Levis is going to cut it long term, but I’d rather roll the dice that he does than take the blindfolded dart throw in the 3rd. Typically players drafted in the 3rd have no better chance to succeed than Levis does, and many of them have far less potential upside if they do.
I guess I might appear to be too harsh on Levis. If I rostered him, I'd be happy to hold and see. You're right that on the minor chance Levis sticks, he will be worth at least a late 1st. That's a good value, if he sticks, and buying that lottery ticket is worth a 2nd for some managers.

But if I had three NFL starting QBs on my roster, I'd rather take a chance on finding the next Tank Dell than trade a mid 2nd for Levis.
Levis or Bryce Young?
Bryce Young for me.

Deshaun Watson also happens to be in this range, and I take Deshaun or BY over Levis.
I still feel like Levis is worth a late 1st though.

Levis or Bryce Young?
Young has a better chance to be a starter for longer. Levi’s’ upside is much higher if he hits, but he is less likely to do so.

CAR is 100% invested in Young. They will have to see this out to the rookie contract. Levis is unique and I hope he hits

I agree. BY will survive at least one more coach firing. He's already gotten one canned. They'll stick with him at least through another!
