How are Jordan Traylor and Conner McQueen?

I've got this nightmare scenario in my head in which Kyle Allen wins the starting job, Kenny Hill pulls a Showers/Davis and transfers, then Joeckel graduates. Should this occur, what do we have in reserve? Conner McQueen is listed at 5'11"/175, which doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Traylor is 6'1"/208, but I don't know anything about either of them. If my nightmare scenario were to play out, then Allen got hurt, what kind of shape would we be in?
ETA: I know that people in the Zoo keep jokingly throwing out Ace Fiero's name at QB, but, seriously, is he any better than McQueen or Traylor?

We would still have Joeckel as the backup for this year then Kyler next year. If Hill leaves after this year and we have one scholarship QB I bet we find a second QB to take with Kyler that's Mountain West 3 star type prospect.
Short answer I don't see your situation playing out

If Allen wins the starting job as a true Freshman and lights it up, I'm not so sure that we land Murray. A kid that's won 2 Texas 5A state titles may not want to ride the pine for 2 years (maybe 3) waiting for his turn if there's a decent program out there that will allow him to start right away.

So we DON'T want Allen to start?

I'm pretty certain we will land Murray but if we don't we will still sign at least one QB, probably two if we only have one scholarship QB. There is absolutely zero chance our staff will let us start a season with one scholarship QB

it's a silly scenario.
- Kyler will make a decision before we name a QB
- there's going to be comp wherever a top QB goes. There always is. The best don't even sweat it. Kyle Allen committed to a school with Manziel, Davis, Joeckel, and Hill on it.
- we've told even Kyler we are taking 2 QBs this year
It's a rather chicken little scenario to begin with but Lucas Connor McQueen may well earn a scholarship before he's done anyway. Guy can play. Plus he's got red hair.

Didn't say that. I think that he actually has a much higher ceiling than Hill. My concern is a Hill transfer and a Joeckel graduation at the same time.

FWIW, I saw on TA that this guy is apparently walking on. Not really rated but a big kid that was a winner in HS. Looks like a Matt Joekel type.

how so? I guess I'm not at all sure what this means

I assume that meant he looks like a good backup.

Big guy, 6'4 230 with ok athleticism. By all accounts is humble and focused on his education and loves A&M. Doesn't have a great chance at starting but likely will be there for 4 or 5 years and may get some time as a backup.
That's how I pretty much see Joekel, a nice and reliable big dude you can put at QB and will run the offense.
