Re: Wft quarterback of the future

First of all, I give it a 50-50 chance Snyder will be forced to sell the team. The NFL is quiet now, but when the season is over and not so much in the news, there is a good chance the other owners will cast him out. More sexist charges will come out that we don’t know about now. Some ppl say, “all the teams have done this”. Wrong - they haven’t even been charged with anything like this, much less proved it. Snyder claims to be the Redskin’s ultimate fan, but he has brought nothing but high prices, a rundown stadium, many, many losses, the erosion of a once-huge fan base, and finally, disgrace and shame on a storied and outstanding franchise. Only when Snyder was FORCED to remove himself TOTALLY from the team’s management and personnel decisions has the team been able to improve. Only owners like Jerry Jones, who know how bad Snyder has been for his NFC East competitor, still support him - at least publicly. So Snyder may be gone.

Second, the team can’t wait until 2022 to try to draft a premiere QB. Some may say Rivera/Kyle Smith will try to get a FA QB. But they have really STAYED AWAY from FA, even when they were in positions of dire need. For instance, they picked up No TE’s, except Logan Thomas - even when they had nothing after Reed left. I don’t see them changing next year.

The WFT will try to build the team via draft picks, UDFA and a FEW FA. They will spend their huge cap savings to keep Scherff, Allen, Payne on the team. So, in my opinion, the WFT will keep Smith for one more season and DRAFT the best draft pick available, versus getting an older FA QB.

The question is: what QB will be there in the draft for the WFT?? . Not much if they don’t TRADE UP. By trading their first and second round picks they can get in a good position for a premiere QB. They DON’T have to get the #1 pick in the draft. They just have to trade up to get the QB they want. That’s what they will do. I trust Rivera and Kyle Smith to get the best QB out of the draft. Kyle Smith has proved himself to getting QUALITY STARTERS from the dregs of the draft - sixth and seventh round picks and even UDFA. Most teams are happy to get a Special Team starter from picks that low. Smith has been a MASTER, at finding rookie starters that have been passed over by every other team- multiple times! He and Rivera will lock into their future QB and then trade up to get him. Alex Smith will be the mentor for the new QB - just like he did for Mahommes.
