Do we sign a Vet QB now?

With JJM gone, here are the “best” available..

Jimmy G - seems like he would be a good fit for KOCs offense given his experience with Niners/Shanahan

Nick Mullins - can operate KOCs offense and get the ball to Jefferson. Currently on the Jaguars practice squad, so would have to sign him to the 53.

Jake Browning - former Vike, Bengal, now a FA.

Josh Johnson - 40 years old, on the Bengals practice squad. I think he has played for just about every team in the league except us!

Or do we roll with Brosmer as QB3? (gulp)

I think only Mullins and Cousins make any sense at all.

No one picks up KOC's offense and looks good right away.

Completely agree re: the playbook.

Kirko may make some sense next year if K1 doesnt play his way into another season here.

No way I see the Raiduhs moving him now or the Vikings making that kinda move now.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Cant wait to get fleeced by Cousins again so we spend a fortune to lose in the 1st round of the PO's again.

I'd rather sell the farm and trade up for a good QB in next years draft while we have talent on this team.

yep, stick with what we have now, draft what we can, have him learn behind Wentz or who ever else we can get on the cheap, and the be ready to roll in 28. we arent going to pick up a stop gap QB that can deliver a lombardi year 1 in KOCs O, so why waste the picks?

Me too but just look at the year we drafted McCarthy. We tried to sell the farm but our farm couldn't cover it. Same exact thing could happen again this year. In fact if we keep winning I'd say it's very likely. Knowing this, I'd actually be open to making a move NOW on a QB like Herbert (gulp) or Stroud (GULP) if they were available for a team that's suddenly and unexpectedly staring at a rebuild.

Give Murray a few more starts and hope he improves (he should) but if the defense is still balling out and the offense is still stalling out, the stars could possibly align for a blockbuster trade. These very seldom work out for the team giving up the picks but depending on the who and the how, I could be on board.

Raiders aren't trading Cousins when they are 3-0.

Stroud would be most likely considering he doesn't have a new deal, the Texans are 0-3, and they could be looking at cleaning house if things don't turn around quickly.

Herbert is likely untradable with the dead money on his new deal.

We know it'll be retreads, that's apparently all KOC can deal with.

WOW, KOC really must prefer retread QBs.
