Wft quarterback of the future

That is fine. See you in 2022. Maybe. If the guy pans out. Because Smith and Allen and DH are not winning us a super bowl next year. They are not bringing us close to one.
I have no problem with drafting a quarterback but we need a more productive stop gap to mentor him because we can win big with one while the youngster learns. The rest of this team is good enough to win big now. The Quarterback position is literally holding us back.
I think taking the money into account and taking your time is fine ... unless our draftee turns into DH again. I believe there is a way to get someone better than Smith for next year that gives us a chance to win without breaking the bank and mortgaging our future all while grooming someone for the future.

How did Joe Gibbs win? Were any of his QB's stars besides Theismann? Next year barring injury we are going to be stacked on both sides, we have some really good players on IR even though unproven, my gut tells me Charles, AGG, Love and maybe even Ruben Foster will pan out. We need someone to manage the ball not a superstar.

I'm intrigued with Steven Montez, maybe with some coaching and mentoring he could rise above Allen and Haskins. I hope he goes to camp next year.

Who said anything about a star quarterback? I said someone better than Smith. Someone who can throw it 10-15 yards consistently certainly does not constitute a star.

Doug Williams, Mark Rypien, even Schroeder - those guys when they played for us were all waaaaaaaay more capable than Alex is now. It is not even close.

Not to mention Gibbs also had a hof rb and o line and one of the best wr trios in history. A phenomenon tight end. A Kicker who never missed.

Kyle Allen should play and start over Alex Smith next season IF HEALTHY

Start there.

Kyle will be cheaper and has played just as well.

I just don't see how we get any of the top 4 QB's in the draft. We will not pick high enough.

If it is the difference between winning and losing then yes. Keep Alex as a backup. Whatever you would be paying his replacement comes right off the top. Offer Alex a position for life and work a deal? Idk. Not my job. But he cannot start 16 games next year and us expect to be serious contenders. So however they make it happen make it happen.

We'll see. Maybe they try to grab a FA QB in the off season. Maybe they draft the future WFT QB. Maybe DH is the starter day 1. We'll just have to wait and see. I don't know what they will do, or can do.

But if Alex is healthy, this team can be serious contenders. They are now, and he didn't even start until week 9. They are 4-1 with him as the starter - should be 5-0 if it weren't for a bone head penalty by the best player on the team. Alex is the reason this team is a serious contender right now. The defense obviously deserves an equal amount of credit, they have been good all year. However, this team wasn't playing complementary football until Smith became the starter.

Maybe a better QB will fall into their lap for next to nothing in 2021. I don't buy it, but maybe... If not, and Alex is g2g, then I'm fine with rolling with him until he isn't.

I think we'd be in the same spot right now if Allen had been playing the last 4 weeks. I'd be fine with him as the short term guy and who knows maybe he can turn that into something more.

Rivers would be my preferred optoin.

If Rivers decides to play next year, I would be shocked to see him go to a different team unless Colts is the one who decides to move on. Rivers and Reich have good relationship.

Call me crazy but if Hurts pans out in Philly, I see a team that would be a perfect fit for Wentz, Indy. Reich former coach, great OL, running game, young up and coming receivers, the perfect recipe to regain your confidence. Maybe Wentz could redo his contract to accommodate his new team.

Allen has not played just as well as Smith. 610 yards passing in 5 games and 1-3 as a starter? He is coming off a major injury as well...I'm not sure that would be my first choice if the plan is to move on from Smith.

If you've made the decision to move on from Smith and don't get your day 1 QB in the draft, then you probably do bite the bullet and lure a FA in here. Who that would be, I don't know.

I see Stafford's name thrown around a lot, but he is under contract for the next two years. I don't see that as an option.

Maybe you can bring in a guy like Dalton, Winston, Trubisky...

Good discussion, but I like the discussions about this year better. I'm enjoying the fact that this team is in 1st place right now with a chance to host a playoff game.
