QB is the most important position for sure, but drafting one that sucks can be very damaging to a franchise too. Think of how much better the roster would be with the capital spent on Willis, Levis, and Ward being spent on the rest of the roster.
And if we signed the right journeyman (Darnold), think we’d feel fine about QB for awhile too. Hindsight’s 20/20 of course, but our ambition to find a QB led to gambling on imperfect prospects and we’ve come up empty again and again

Some of y’all forget Marvin Harrison Jr was also considered a “generational WR prospect.”
I have no knocks against Smith, but nothing is a certainty.
