Weird move. I think I would've taken a shot at McCarron before trading for Taylor. 

Pretty much tells me they're taking a QB at #1 or #4. Taylor is the stopgap in case he isn't ready.

They ruined Kizer by playing him too early.

Their first round QB will not start this season

They always have the option of trading the 4th pick back to the Bills

Kizer just plain sucked, period. Don't ever draft QBs who fail to complete 60% of their passes in their final college season. They're virtually guaranteed to bust.

This is good for Cleveland 

1. They drafted Kizer last year.  People forget some had him hyped as a 1st round QB going into last years draft and the highest ceiling out of the drafted QBs.  He was thrown into the fire.  Taylor gives them the option to start until Kizer is ready.

2. A Lot of teams need a QB.  At the #1 spot they have the option to trade out, even the #4 spot.  Teams like the Broncos, Jets, Cardinals need QBs real bad.  Unless they get Cousins they will be fighting to jump each other.

3. Now they have a Huge Arsenal of Weapons in the passing game, a Ton of picks and Cap space to fill the gaps.  This GM almost would almost have to purposely fug this up in order to screw up.

Well there goes the idea of him backing up Kizer.

    • It amuses me how Goff's name the last few years is often used to compare to subpar or underperforming QB's. Now on the surface I get it. But when you look at his numbers he's been the same QB all along. He's improved his completion % but even with the Rams he averaged 63.4. And that Super Bowl he played in they should have won honestly. If we can get a QB as good as Goff I'll be pretty damn pleased.
    • And it remains to be seen if Goff has that ability or not. Plenty of very good QB's like Goff were not able to get over those playoff humps. Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, etc. You can still be an upper tier QB and never get over that hurdle. McVay just thought(and hasn't been wrong yet) Goff was never going to be that guy.
    • You literally simply have to think logically for either of those guys. Smith is locked up on a deal for 2025, so we would have to trade for him or he gets cut. Neither of those scenarios are likely in the first place.  Wilson will be 37 in 2025. Why on earth would he have any interest in a situation that is far worse than he was given in Denver and wasn't able to win there? He's a guy that can drop into any ready to win franchise in the NFL and immediately elevate their chances of winning(provided they already have QB issues).  Frankly, that is either speculation that even David Newton should be embarrassed by or it shows how disconnected with reality some people in our organization are.   I do agree with him on getting a veteran QB, however. That's our best chance to keep developing our talent.
