He WAS one of the more mobile QBs in the league earlier in his career and he's lost that. but he's a more than competent pocket passer at this point in his career. I'm perfectly fine with another year with him as the starter, JUST GET HIM PROTECTION.
Everyone wants to call him fragile, but EVERY quarterback who played for us last year got injured, and Kyle Allen very severely.
1st pick should be a new left tackle, and get Smith some weapons at WR in FA. Alex Smith will be more than fine with some help.

I think there's zero chance RR rolls into 2021 presuming that Alex Smith will be the WFT QB.
