Who will be ND's next two-year starter at QB? Grubbs, Jarrard or Monds?

I truly have no idea. I've been reading a lot of ND football stuff, but have not seen a comparison of each of these QBs. I'd love to hear a knowledgeable comparison of each (accuracy, football mind, pocket presence, it factor etc). I say two-year, because, one might start for a year and be replaced by another for two years.... Thanks.

Monds to me has the highest ceiling. My question is can he beat out the other 2 who will have a head start. If Cj stays for another year after this year, I could see Monds starting after his freshman year.

Obviously a lot of football to be played, but what's the current thinking on Carr in '27? Stay or go?

I just looked at two mock drafts that didn't have him as a first round pick (though one had KVA as a top 10 pick and the other had Traore going 20th. Moore obvs top 10 in both.). This year's QB class is pretty deep. If Carr is not a first-round pick - or maybe even a first-half-of-the-first-round - I would assume we make it worth his while to stay, right?

And Carr '27 is also the best outcome for developing his successor, given how young these guys are.

The research shows if you start 30 games in college, your chances of succeeding are much higher. I have no doubt Carr and his family are aware of this. Not saying he will be back, but something to consider

I think that something would have to go very wrong with this season for Carr to come back. I expect him to kill it and be one of the first QBs off the board. Manning and Moore go first probably, right? Sayin could be next, but I think Carr will be better than him when their careers are finished. I think he could end up being the best among the 2027 QBs that are drafted, but I could see Manning/Moore going in the draft first and second because of clout and pedigree.

Carr is better than all of them right now IMO.

I think so too probably, although Moore has had more reps so he has experience, but we know he's a flake and not the kind of guy you want to build a franchise around imo. Maybe Moore pulls an Eli Manning and refuses to sign with whoever drafts him if he doesn't like the team?

I think Grubbs will get first crack at it and will be a 2 year starter. Jarrad etc will transfer.
