Although the more I think about it, the more I'm leaning toward loading up on O-line and defense and waiting until next year to get a QB.  We really need to surround our new QB with a quality NFL team before we throw him to the wolves.  No rookie QB will make any significant difference next year; hell, we could bring in Rodgers or Brady and he would suck on this team as currently constructed.  In contrast, several backup-level QBs have performed adequately this season on better teams -- Bridgewater, Minshew, Rudolph, Kyle Allen, Brandon Allen, Tannehill -- that suggests we need to build a team before springing on a QB. 

This is how you build for success. Good line on both sides. You ruin the even the best of QB's when you put them behind a line like this. One year behind this line and it can ruin what could have been a great qb by maki g him jumpy.
