If Dallas resigns Dak, they won't take a QB, either. There's no point moving up to 3 when you can pay less to get to 4 or 5 and still get your guy.
It’s not necessarily about who is or isn’t taking a QB around us it’s about who’s willing to move up and how far back teams will go. If someone at say 7 wants a QB and the team at 8 does too, how far does 7 have to move up to make sure 8 can’t get them. 3 ensures that if you love a Wilson/Lance/Jones you get your guy. It may not even be over a QB. Something as simple as a slide from 3 to 5 to ensure the Cowboys get Surtain isn’t a crazy thought.
The draft is wild and it’s a little early still to rule out much other than we know for the most part who pick 1 is. Pick 2 could be interesting as many assume it’s fields but with a new GM and potentially coach coming in maybe they prefer someone else, maybe they have ties to another QB somehow. Lots left still to figure out between now and then.
