As far as I see it, here are the major issues I need to address:

1. The QB Position

  • Do we pursue a proven veteran starter? Do we only pursue a veteran bridge QB?
  • Do we try to trade up for Bryce Young or see if he or C.J. Stroud drop to us? Do we consider Will Levis or Anthony Richardson? Do we look for a QB outside the first round?
  • What do we do with Zach Wilson?

2. Adding a difference maker on the DL or at the EDGE position

  • Do we draft Jalen Carter or Will Anderson?
  • Do we throw big money at a top FA?

3. Improving team depth

1  You should probably make a decision on Wilson first. Possibly he has enough trade value left to put you in position to move up for Stroud or Young. You can't count on either of them being available at 3. Personally, I'm not a fan of Levis or Richardson, especially as a rookie starter. Carr shouldn't be too expensive as a free agent and can probably be had for a 7th rounder in trade. Rodgers might not be too expensive in trade but is very expensive on the cap. Garoppolo is a decent starting option but can't be counted on to play 17 games so I'd avoid him. Likewise guys like Matt Ryan, Carson Wentz, Marcus Mariota, Andy Dalton, Steve Tannehill, etc. They could all be had but aren't the answer.

 

Take one of the top 2 QBs if you can or Carter if you can't.

I'm moving on from Wilson. If somebody is willing to trade for him, I'll take it. But I'm not depending on him. Now, it's about figuring out which veteran to sign and which rookie to draft.

Due to some personal commitments, I'm not sure when I'll be on tomorrow. But when I make it, I'll catch up on any picks/trades. The players I'm considering in the 4th round are:

Adetomiwa Adebawore

Kelee Ringo

Tyler Scott

Dawand Jones

Andrew Voorhies

Jay Ward

Christopher Smith

Charlie Jones

Chase Brown

Nick Hampton

Dylan Horton

Colby Wooden

Mike Morris

Yasir Abdullah

A.T. Perry

Right now, I'm thinking I'd take Ade if he makes it to pick #4. But it's also possible I'd trade down, as there are still a lot of guys I like available.
