Unless Chicago or the Raiders offer something that can't be turned round I doubt anyone will. The dead cap hit is massive. I think it will be a next year deal if he leaves.

He's fantastic and honestly I'd be more than happy with Dak if something isn't sorted there. But for me if the front office thinks soneone like Mac Jones is a franchise I would be very aggressive moving up if they are there in the 15/20 range. The scope a rookie QB deal gives you for future cap years is unreal.

If not I'd be looking at a one year deal for a QB now and looking again next year as it looks like either Dak or Wilson could hit the market. See how wants what out of the likes of Winston, Fitzmagic, Trubisky or even a trade for Minshew. Someone that either has huge upside or a steady hand. Worst thing would be to give a player a deal that might tie money next year if a top QB hits the market.

Not to be a doom merchant but my fear this year is the Defense taking a massive step back if Brown, Rankins and T Rex go from the front 4, that alot of depth/rotation and snaps lost, add that to Williams and it could be ugly.
