 I am keeping the faith and you are right about 7 games to go.  We still have to see what Foles can do and we still have GM learning from the sideline.  Both or one of those may still work out so hope is in the air.  As far as the QB class goes, you are also correct.  My pause is because we are primed with 2 first for the next two years but that doesnt mean we will still get a top QB if none of those work out in 2021.  THIS is suppose to be a deep class and yet we are willing to pass on it for a hope and a dream from a journeyman and a 6th round rookie that showed progress.  Give me a 1st rd QB and let him sit.  See if he beats out Minshew in camp and/or just sign 3 QBs to the 53 next year.  I want to see that before i bet any money on Nick and GM as the only 2 viable options for the future.

Minshew is already demonstrably better than any first round QB this year, so why throw him away for a first round QB next year?  That makes no sense.  First round QBs are rarely better than what we've already seen in Minshew.  We have a hot prospect.  We should develop that guy, not waste a first round pick on another guy.

Devils advocate here, but is a good QB ever a waste in this league? I would love to see a first round QB come in and compete with Minshew. I don’t count on Foles being on this team in 2021. I just don’t see it happening but would love to be proven wrong. I would love to be proven wrong on everything.. 

In the above scenario, you have a great franchise QB and a promising Minshew or drafted 1st rounder QB that could serve as a great back up after Foles is gone, or be traded for a bunch of picks. 

We NEED a franchise QB! It’s been way way too long and overdue. We have the picks to make it happen. We have talent all over the team that is young and viable. Our other needs can be addressed outside of the first round.
