FTR, I am NOT in the draft a first round QB in 2020 group.

Solid talent but with our draft ammo I'd prefer to build up the OL with mauling guards, grab a run stuffing NT, add more talent to the back 7 on defense, and perhaps add another weapon to the offense at TE/WR/RB.

Then reevaluate Foles/Minshew after 2020 (one will emerge or both will flounder)
Perhaps leading us to drafting a 2021 first round QB.

I actually think best case scenario is Foles plays well, stays healthy, and we have a seamless passing of the torch from Foles to Minshew after 2020 where we are a playoff team but Foles retires or is released with little cap implications.
Minshew has a stellar 2021 campaign and becomes the highest paid QB entering 2022.

If I’m GM, I look and see if there is another Mahomes type guy there and I grab him. If not- everything you said makes sense. I would have a smile on my face no matter which direction they took, yours, or mine. 

Anyone else get that vibe that the moment Foles retires he’s back on a jet to Philly? At this point that’s his hometown now. Guy will remain iconic in Philly until the day he dies.
