I am of the mind that Washington looks to the draft for a rookie QB where the salaries are much more 'cap friendly'. I have already seen a couple of mocks that say Washington drafts Kyler Murray at the 15 spot.

Smith will not be making any career decisions soon. If he is on the roster as of March 17, 2019 his salary for 2020 is fully guaranteed.

Good points but what happens if AS retires?
