I think we will be okay at QB. Another top 5 pick next year is extremely likely so we should eventually get one.

okay with Darnold/Walker or do you think we make a move this year?

If we are smart as a franchise, roll with Darnold/Walker. Don't waste resources on a mediocre QB in free agency/trade or a bad QB in the draft. 

We lose Rhule, we get a QB next draft and the battle is partially won. Assuming we don't hire another blithering idiot as head coach.

Makes sense, but a lot of these signings are one year deals.  By the time we draft a QB next year and he is ready these players are going to be gone if they play well.

Yeah, I mean in reality we are about to try and trade for a QB. I see that coming.

Yep.  Baker or Jimmy G and if we miss again we will draft the most "Pro Ready" as in Pickett.

Or shoot for the moon with someone like Willis and watch him be a fuging disaster.

I suspect we are gonna see an even worse run defense this season. The roster is very much shaping up that way.

I'd say Wilson and Ioannidis run counter to that idea.

I remember people saying the same about Jones and Fox.

We still had Carter at MLB and not much at safety.
