With a franchise QB draft pick in mind this year, this team can be great in 2-3 years. But the question is what QB is available out there who can take us to the promised land this year? Even if it is Foles, do we have the players around him to go all the way. I don’t think so. Maybe next year. My point is about tempering expectations. Even if we could sign Tom Brady, we’re not going to the SB this year. Let’s be realistic and bide our time by drafting THIS year for future success. In the mean time, we sign a QB who can provide the most potential for winning now with the realization that we’re not hoisting the Lombardi trophy this year.

We’re in agreement. This is what I have in mind, but there’s always that $64,000 FO question.

I agree the Jaguars won't win the Superbowl with Foles anyway so don't even sign him. Draft a rookie, play him, and move some money forward for guys like Ramsey and ngakoue who will be getting paid. I don't see the point is paying a guy like Foles more than backup money.

I agree, to a point. While we want to free up money, we also don’t want another 5-11 season with a ruined rookie QB who was thrown into the fire before having sufficient time to develop. That will ensure another decade in the wilderness. It’s a delicate balance that, hopefully, our FO can achieve. I don’t know if Foles is the answer as a bridge QB, but my spidey sense tells me we need to draft our franchise QB this year. The time is now.
