If they decide to look for an affordable bridge qb and draft a qb, who would the bridge qb be?
Ideally Cousins, otherwise it's the usual assortment of Winston's, Minshew's, and Sam Darnolds.
Will be worth monitoring what goes on with guys like Mac Jones and Zac Wilson
Going to be interesting to see what happens with Mayfield, or even Flacco. Regardless, we're going to be paying market starting money for a starter's role. Why not stick with what we know unless KC's achilles is really concerning?

Because Kirk won't go with a one year deal and he won't offer a discount. So commit to an immobile 36 year old QB with a $30-40M per year contact to do what? Make the wild card.
Use the money for the defense, draft a QB and start a new

They way its fallen all of the top 3 QBs will be gone before the cardinals pick and theyre the only team that might be willing to move.

I will take Penix as the 4th QB or move down a couple of spots and take McCarthy at 12-14

So it goes back to the original question of who or what is a bridge QB, in '24. Sounds like you're willing to go with someone with the potential of winning 6-7 games or gamble on starting a rookie QBOTF from the get go. Nobody who isn't on life support is going to sign a 1 yr. deal....and be worth a crap to the team or to the QBOTF.

Agreed, and you got JJ/Addison/TJH as weapons. You can't skimp @ QB.

Forgot about Minshew I like him actually
I don't think a bridge is going to sit well with Justin Jefferson, or anyone else for that matter.
And bridge QBs aren't cheap either. Wilson, Mayfield, Tannehill? ...every one of those guys is going to cost you $30M+. This year's bridges were Geno, Jimmy G. They were $25M.
Would you rather have one of the above bridges for $25-$30M or Cousins for $35-$40? That answer should be obvious.
