How Does the Washington Football Team Address the QB Position?


Like the Chicago Bears, the Washington Football Team's top draft pick (No. 19 overall) probably excludes them from a shot at the top four or five quarterback prospects in the draft, barring a trade.

Washington has in-house options who could start in Taylor Heinicke and Kyle Allen, who's recovering from a dislocated ankle, but neither player would have a stronghold on the starting job.

The Football Team should explore trade options such as the Las Vegas Raiders' Marcus Mariota or Jacksonville Jaguars' Gardner Minshew II. The latter doesn't have a high-scale draft pedigree, but he's played 23 games, started in 20 of those contests and thrown for 5,530 yards, 37 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 62.9 percent completion rate.

Statistically, Minshew has put together solid starts in Jacksonville, but he's clearly a backup if the Jaguars select a quarterback with the No. 1 pick. Washington should look into the 2019 sixth-rounder as an option to lead a playoff-caliber roster because of his solid passing numbers.

If not, Andy Dalton, Ryan Fitzpatrick and Mitchell Trubisky could land on Washington's radar as arguably the top three quarterback options on the open market.
