The Redskins can't go into the draft without a viable FA QB, otherwise they'd get murdered in an effort to trade up.

This. Plus, without a viable FA QB, the chances are increased that another QB hungry team will leapfrog us because they will know that we are desperate for a QB. Having a viable FA QB on the roster already makes us harder to figure out on draft day.
