I don't want to invest heavily in a guy planning to hold a clipboard. Got it. So you are content just with the backup situation this year and see how Mariota pans out and hope he doesn't get injured, no shame in saying that... Either way "finding a better starter" involves some very very large investment this year in a guy holding a clipboard. I'm in a different boat and think we should invest a high mid-round pick in the position just because and then if Mariota gets injured again we see what he has OR Mariota stays healthy and a 3rd round pick is the least of our worries OR mariota fails and we draft a QB very high and we have a hopeful RGIII/Cousins situation in 2 years where there's 2 potential good guys. big2033 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOAT9 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 The division is too competitive. Cant afford to have 4-6 games a year with a backup QB that isn't capable. Finding a backup QB is a must for at least this season. Mariota cant be relied on to play a full season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
