I think the offense Turner would like to run requires a stronger inside running game, a quality pass catching tight end, and at least two fast receivers that can stretch the field. Not to mention a quality QB.
I think we have the quality QB now, and at least one quality receiver in McLaurin (Sims might be the other guy), but the running game (o-line), and the TE are weak points.
But yeah, they likely draft a QB next year. Maybe not in the first round, but somewhere...

If we have a top 5 pick we WILL pick a QB. No question.
It’s not like we have a franchise QB and the hype for Lawrence, Fields, Lance or Wilson will reach a crescendo before the draft. Could have avoided all this by drafting Tua when we had the chance. Hopefully lesson learned, in the NFL you’re not going anyplace without the man at QB. And he is not on the roster (or IR) at this point.
