I like Justin Fields the person and the leader but I don’t know if he can ever be a great QB. My question is, is he good enough?

Yes, we can draft another QB with pick 1 or 4 (or whatever) but we can get a boatload of picks by trading down from #1. Most highly drafted QBs don’t turn into great NFL QBs and our franchise sucks at developing them.

As the defense is playing well, the OLine looks solid, can we go forward and compete with JF1?

Personally, I think if we boot Getsy and get an OC who actually builds a plan around Fields, we may be able to compete by investing in OL, DL and WR.

And if we win 2-3 more games, we might be stuck with the entire front office for next year anyway.

    Fields is not a terrible QB like Zach Wilson, he’s a below average NFL starter - probably around the 20th or 21st ranked QB.

    He’s probably a tier below guys like Mayfield and Carr as a passer.

    ​

    He seems like a great dude and he can be really exciting to watch… .but unfortunately he’s just fatally flawed. His pocket presence is terrible, he takes sacks at a historically bad rate and he simply can’t read defenses consistently and throw with anticipation.
