There isn't a "bonafide" QB coming out (because no one is a sure thing) but there are some really good ones that have the potential (just like Minshew has potential) to be really great.

It's ok to love what Minshew is doing and at the same time, make sure you do your homework to ensure that you're not making a mistake by passing on other QB prospects. The Cardinals did just that last year and they ended up with Murray. If you have the chance to upgrade, you take it.

Also, when you think you are set at a position, that's how you end up with Bortles and Cody Kessler.

Everyone keeps saying this, but how on earth does anyone know they positively have the Guy?

Even teams that take a QB with a top 10 pick use 2-4 years to figure that out. Often, you don't know until he is in a playoff game and in do-or-die position.

That's the point though. Don't pass on really good QB prospects until you're sure. "Already have Leftwich so we don't need Big Ben." The Cardinals drafted Rosen and then immediately took Murray the next year. Heck, even the Redskins traded up for RG3 then drafted Cousins the same year.

QB is the most important position (obviously) so accumulating good QB talent seems pretty logical.

Again, I'm not saying Minshew can't be the real deal (he's only made 6 starts) but I wouldn't bring Foles back because I want to see more of Minshew.
