“We’re constantly communicating with [GM Rick Spielman] and coach Zimmer,” Wilf said. “There’s going to be a process, we’re going to get the coordinator in, need to review where we’re at. We’re in a situation, thankfully, where we had three – really four – solid quarterbacks on our roster. I know we need to improve our team to get where we want to get. So as good as we had of a team, we can’t rest on our laurels. Great franchises continue to improve and don’t stay stagnant.”
The quarterback market isn’t a friendly one to front offices and owners. Teams are forced to either buy into a QB long term at a crazy-high price (see Smith, Alex and his $71 million guaranteed) or try to play the year-to-year game until they can truly lock onto a franchise QB.
Wilf points to Keenum as an example of a quality quarterback that can be found on the market.
“We still have to trust the process, look at last year, we went through a process in free agency and we picked up Case Keenum as a backup quarterback,” Wilf said. “Many people say it might be the second most important position on a football team. It’s about getting to a process and trusting it.”
