Both QBs are on the wrong side of 30 so it makes sense to Draft a QB.
But we are stuck with the Smith/McCoy show for at least one more year so let’s hope the best QB gets the job regardless of their pay.

Yeah this pretty much...still think you leverage it by building a stronger run game in the mean time.

Also, Keim has mentioned this, but we need to add more speed...at WR...Quinn looks he has it in the slot, Paul rich supposedly has it-but injured...we need more speed. CT has it but injured, but I’m bringing him back because we need the threat on the field.

Rich can walk AFAIC. He is a one-trick pony on a team with no qb that can complete the trick. Bad fit, and bad money for a guy who can't stay on the field. Time to do some scouting, maybe bring in a guy who's getting squeezed out by a team with too much depth. We could draft a guy but he'd take years to develop (not a fan unless it's an ODB type in the draft).

Well he back at least another year with the new contract. I think doctson needs to fight for a spot though.

IMO, I would love to see a Kenny stills/Jon brown type player here..not gonna break the bank. Good speed/vet/route running.

I don't think you go wrong investing in the Oline.

Keep trying at qb til you get one.

I just don't want to bet the farm on another RG3 type trade that kills the team for years to come if he is anything but top tier.

I also agree about speed. The Rams Chiefs game says it all. Speed is where it's at now. Either of those teams would hang 60 on us if we couldn't run it.

Just because we made the wrong decision on RG3 doesn't mean we shouldn't draft for a QB or even trade picks to get a higher draft pick in the first round.

We're not going to get a top tier QB unless we draft for him. The AS deal means that we are cap limited to go out and buy another veteran QB.

The best teams in the NFL all have the best QB. We need to draft to get one of our own! Do it!

Just make sure that Bruce Allen is not making this decision on the QB to draft. He's not a personnel guy and is not a good judge of talent.

The RG3 trade was ridiculous. It hurt the team for years. And KC was a 4th round pick. They should probably use a 5th or 4th (trade up) on a QB. Not all great NFL QBs are top 10 picks.

Your acting like picking qbs is easy.

The browns spent how many high picks on qb's without any success?
