Welcome Carson Wentz

I used the 2012 as an example where Rex was the #3 backing up two rookies. Obviously Wentz is not a rookie but he is new here.

As I have always said you need to be drafting Qb's. You can't count on Wentz being the long term solution.

But Ron is getting to a point where he needs to be showing results on the field. Drafting a quarterback that probably will not see the field isn’t going to help Wentz or this team right now, and in turn that doesn’t help Ron.

Im not completely against taking say Willis at 11, or whatever and hoping he turns out to eventually be the guy, but it isn’t that simple for Ron and Co. Their clock is ticking. He acquired Wentz, now you have to put pieces around him. You start “forward thinking “ and draft a quarterback now and you might be shooting your own foot off.

Taylor Heineke is an adequate backup plan. If Im Ron and Co Im doing whatever I can to help Wentz win. That probably doesn’t include drafting a quarterback this year. Not when we still have a handful of holes to fill.
