Re: Redskins 2019 PRE Draft thread

I’m fundamentally opposed to drafting a QB in the first 3 rounds this year.

1) Alex smith can’t be comfortably cut this year or next year. If there is even a chance he comes back and can play in 2020, do we really want to invest a high pick on a QB in 2019?
2) this appears to be a relatively weak QB class at the top.
3) and this is the big one - drafting a QB high doesn’t make sense given the situation with Gruden. Unless he suddenly turns things around, this is very likely his last year here. A rookie QB is almost certainly not going play well enough to help Gruden keep his job another year. And do we really want to draft a QB this year and have the new HC we get next be saddled with the guy Gruden and Bruce pick in 2019?

We obviously have a major QB hole, but it just doesn’t make long-term sense for us to draft one high this year
