Say it louder for the people in the back.  Its simple, but it seems like some are stuck on this throw away GM mantra.  Foles will be gone people.  We are better than last year but that is not a viable plan for the next 10 to 15 years.  I understand alot were hurt by our ex, but that doesnt mean just run to the next hot chick and hope it works out.  Breathe, plan ahead for the future, and stop trying to grasp at straws.  NOTHING is wrong with drafting a 1st round QB and letting him sit behind Foles and/or GM with a 3 QB depth chart to see what we have when Foles is gone.  We have a whole 3 more first rounds to play with for the next 2 years plus other picks in the draft.

If you draft a QB in round one... you really don't want that guy sitting imo. Those are the guys that should be ready to come in right away and make an impact.
Otherwise you end up with Rosen or Darnold.
Duds.

Use the draft picks to shore up the OL, add weapons and play makers.
Then if Foles sucks or Minshew doesn't develop address QB in round 1 in 2021, when the OL is better and the D is retooled.

You’re a smart guy and I value your input. But think about this statement. You value Minshew as a first round talent drafted in the 6th round and essentially most of us agree he can develop on the sidelines this season. Mahomes sat his first year. There is value to a first round QB sitting his first season. That’s put us with two possible starting QBs in 2021. By then we know if Minshew is worthy or not. Nothing wrong with having a fantastic back up QB either... 

Could it be overkill? Absolutely... but after nearly 20 years of [BLEEP] QBs, I think you need overkill at this point. We need to try our best to guarantee we have a franchise qb moving forward. We have done a piss poor job in the past. 

We have 2 first we can trade to move up with...or with a class this deep, our first pick may be high enough allowing us to address our other needs later in the first.
