Like it or not, Dak is going to be our QB for the foreseeable future, so I can’t see the team looking to go QB in R1.

OT is the right position to target early because I would not be holding my breath on another year for Tyron. Steele has also regressed to the point you just need some actual talent at the position.
Yep. One of the first two picks has to be an OL, preferably an OT. I wonder if a great OG is there would they take him and then consider moving Tyler outside? Or are they now locked in on him as our LG forever?

I think they could take an OG and plan to play him at C or long-term at RG after ZM's contract is up. I just don't see them moving Tyler outside, but I don't think that precludes them from drafting an interior lineman either.

Assuming they don't re-sign Biadasz, you could be trying to replace Tyron, Biadasz and ZM in the next two years. So there's room for both positions.

I'd go OT first, probably, but wouldn't be surprised or mad about an interior propsect.

The goal is to try to take advantage of 4 to 5 years of cheap QB play.

They got Lance with two years left and his cap # for next year is $5.3M. It does not appear like he will play at all this year, so they got one year in 2024 of not-so-cheap QB play.

In a QB-rich draft next year, that same 4th round pick could have gotten you 2024 through 2027 of cheap salary and time to develop the next QB.

Some potential names are Shedeur Sanders, Jayden Daniels, Spencer Rattler, Riley Leonard, Cameron Ward, DJ Uiagaleli, Joe MIlton, KJ Jefferson, Carson Beck, Kyle McCord, Jaxson Dart. This sin't counting the 4 to 5 elite QB prospects who will go before these guys.
You really think 4-5 guys are gonna come off the board before Daniel’s? Really?? :huh:
