I promise you that Hill will go down a few games and that leaves us with Teddy and no back up. Winston only has 3 of 5 16 game seasons in Tampa so when he goes down Hill is all we have. Again, go all in and put you next franchise QB in a position to be there when you absolutely need him. Kind of like that 7th rounder.. what was his name... Tom Brady? I know Brady was a seventh rounder but if Payton is doing diligence to move up I trust that he has a very good reason.
And if the QB whisperer, Payton, agrees with me and knows there is no franchise worthy QB in the 2021 draft after Lawrence, and maybe Wilson?

And how many QB's drafted after let's say the 2nd round have turned out to be "franchise" quality in the history of the NFL? Not many. Most drafted in the first round do not end up being "franchise" quality.

You are drifting Guido, that is a lot of ifs and I have been replying under the premise of the OP which is that he is preparing for something that is higher in the first round.

I'll go along with you though just for fun. If he does "agree with you" can you please get t it on video?

I am absolutely hoping he is planning on something higher in the first round. And I hope like hell it isn't a QB. Then again, I would be shocked if it was. I'll record it when he says it, though, if you wish.
