Not big on Herbert or Fromm. Tua has all the tools you'd want in one, but those injuries are concerning.

Hurts as a 3rd rounder is intriguing especially if we get an offensive minded guy to come in like Roman who has been known to build an offense around running QBs (I think Hurts has good ability from the pocket but best utilized on the run)

Although rumor has it coaching and front office staff is going to be retained to finish their contracts... if so, I wouldn't expect much to change in the way of QB.
They'll likely try to build a better OL and retool the weapons and defense in order to salvage a QB room of Foles/Minshew

I'm not selling on Minshew yet... but he's definitely not a "carry the team" type QB.

ALSO: We're now at 6!

Unless it's Burrow, I'll pass on a QB. I'd like Tua, but we HAVE TO get Derrick Brown with that #6 pick. He's the key to fixing the run defense. I then take a LT with the Rams pick and the best OG on the board in round 2. From there I look for a CB, ILB, TE, Safety and WR. If we can fix the O-Line and run defense, we'll be in decent shape to get our QB in 2021. I want to have good pieces around him when he arrives, so he can have a better chance at succeeding early on.

Yeah, it's looking like Brown should be the pick at 6.
I wouldn't lock down OT/OG to any one pick though. Just add the OL pieces and figure it out in camp. Maybe that's an OT and a G, maybe it's a C and then an OT.
If we can add 2 pieces I like Minshews ability to move around enough that the OL doesn't have to be perfect right away. Just get better than it is currently.
