I go back and forth on paying Geno, but in my mind, it's either pay Geno or use the #5 on a QB. QBs taken in mid rounds have an extremely low hit rate, unless you want a backup. Russ was the last franchise QB taken in the third round and that was an unusual situation 11 years ago. Before that, you have to go all the way back to Matt Schaub in 2004. Letting Geno go and expecting to find our next guy later in the draft would be foolish. Maybe we could trade up from #20 if someone surprising drops, ala Justin Fields a few years ago.
The FA market is pretty bad, which sucks because it gives Geno more leverage. Tom Brady ain't coming here, zero chance Lamar goes anywhere, and I don't trust Baker, Jimmy G, or Daniel Jones, the latter of whom has an outside shot at the franchise tag, despite his performance against the Eagles. If we re-sign Lock, he better have some damn good competition.
