A team still depleted of talent should give up two first picks for the opportunity to sign a dual threat QB with injury history to a record contract that will consume 20%+ of the annual salary cap on a single player? So the games when Lamar could play he has shit for talent, and the other 30% of time he isn’t on the field and they really get their ass kicked? And they can’t make up for it in free agency because they have no cap space. If it was Mahomes, no question. Or if it was someone who can consistently get you to the playoffs for the next 4-5 years without relying on their legs when you’d expect a QB to start slowing down (or breaking down) after age 30, it is worth debating.
I’ve never been high on this QB class, but I’m at the point of just saying all these picks are just lottery tickets and you have to take one and hope for the best. Hopefully it’s Stroud or Young and they don’t reach on Richardson who is far too risky. A month ago you could make an argument for taking Levis at 12, but he’ll be gone by 9 if not earlier. They definitely shouldn’t give up a 1st or 2nd to move up to #1, because nobody knows with certainty who will turn out better between Young and Stroud.
