You know what this team has not had since Joe Gibbs' second stint as coach? A GM and HC having the ability to pick their own QB without Snyder meddling in the decision.

And again, I'm not saying we HAVE to draft a QB with the first round pick. But I don't get this strong opposition from fans to the notion of this happening.

I think both of these posts are on point. We make way too much of draft position in assessing how to slot needs. The need to find good QB’ing is never satisfied, and if they really like a guy, pick him wherever he’s available, high or low.

At the same time, this organization has been terrible at developing players into a cohesive and successful system. Howell is smart and has good skills and toughness. If the new bosses like him and they don’t like who’s available when they are picking, fine. Just have a plan and keep extraneous bullshit out of it.
