This is exactly how I feel about Caleb Williams. Everyone just looks at his wow plays which are spectacular. But that is not going to cut in in the NFL. He reminds me a lot of Zach Wilson and to a lesser extent Sam- except Sam is way more mentally tough and better cut out for the NFL.

The Pats will 100% take a QB unless they can get Kirk cousins or something.

Bears are a ?

Cards won’t take a QB.

So we will have Maye or Williams at 4 for sure and that’s not to say we don’t trade up to number 2 with NE.

I disagree . . . i think he is QB #5 in this draft, ahead of Penix, behind Williams, Maye, Daniels and McCarthy.

He's been really bad for 4 straight weeks now.

Yesterday Terry goes off when JB comes in. Maybe Sam is just a QB2, he was a 5th rd pick for a reason. I was all in on him after 6 weeks but hes been bad here lately

A first round QB is relatively inexpensive when you compare it to some of the recent free agent and second QB contracts. If that's the direction that the team wants to go.

Granted that could change with the next coaching regime because I don’t think we’ve hit Sam’s ceiling yet and he can be developed more but letting the dude go is wild to me.

If the new GM decides to draft a QB I think we could get a day 2 pick for Sam. There are plenty of QB hungry teams out there and Sam has displayed enough that some one would gamble on him. I would prefer that over keeping Sam and having a QB competition. If they have doubt who the actual starter is then we don't have an actual starter. But who knows at this point.

Are there rumblings about that? Haven't heard any of them associated with Washington but haven't really looked at those individuals.

Or you can keep him as a reliable/cheap backup, since Brissett won't be around (I think he had a 1-year deal).

I think if any player gets moved, it will likely be Jon Allen.
