That's easy to say, but they are working their way towards a pick between 19-32. Obviously there will be QBs available there, but are any of them going to be worthy of that pick? Maybe RR isn't interested in any QBs after the top 4-5 are gone. Maybe Haskins gets another shot? We'll all just have to see how this thing shakes out, but as a fan base we need to be prepared to see Smith at the helm for another year, and if he manages to take this team to the playoffs and is healthy next year, why not?

Mac Jones. I don't know how it is possible to be under-rated as the QB of the number 1 team in the nation, with the historic kind of season he is having, but that's what is happening. Getting him at #19 would be striking gold, IMO.

It would serve Jones well to watch Alex Smith for a season, just as it did Mahomes.

Why not? Because this year everything has fallen into place... easy schedule, injuries to starting QB's. May not be the case next year if we are to win the division. You just can not count on a QB playing on half a leg in his late 30's.

As hard as it would be I would ask Alex to retire so a tough decision isn't made for him. No way in hell is Haskins coming back. I bring back Allen, I draft someone and I bring in a vet.
