Matt Ryan is a guy I think would benefit from a change of scenery. Matthew Stafford as well, but I don’t see any scenario where that happens. If Jerry was stupid and there was a way to land Rayne Dakota, id be all over that, but I don’t think Jerry is that stupid.
But if the choice is either Jimmy or some stop gap guy like Tribuisky or Fitzpatrick, I’d rather just roll with Jimmy and sign a better backup.
As of right now it’s looking like they would have the 12th or 13th pick in the draft. If they feel their franchise qb of the future can be had in this draft either with wherever their pick ends up being or by moving up, this is the time to make that move. It’s looking like Miami, the Chargers and Bengals are all going to be set at qb off this draft, Arizona got their guy last year, KC traded up for Mahomes etc. Stability at the qb position would be huge.
Aside from Alex Smith in 2005. The only qb they’ve drafted in the first or second round since that time was Kap in 2011 as an early second rounder. He came into a good situation starting on a very good team when he took over in 2012 unlike Alex who had offensive coordinator after offensive coordinator and crappy coach after crappy coach until Harbaugh took over. Any qb they draft would be coming into a solid stable situation on a good team and that’s half the battle, being in a position for your young qb to develop and grow in a functional organization.
