Or Texans could opt for drafting another QB. Getting FA QBs rarely work out, apart from any HOF worthy QBs moving to another team. Ballard made inexplicable move of going after FA QBs one after another, instead of evaluating each draft class heavily with very intent of finding next franchise QB, and Philly did that at the same time. If Stroud retires, most good GMs would look to draft next franchise QB, rather than selling fan base that team is championship Caliber and a FA QB is all they need to get close to winning it all. Just as how Texans GM didn't believe the hype of Young, and evaluated well about Stroud, there's a high chance he could find another successful QB or at least a good pocket passer in the draft. It's not right to say Texans would go after FA QBs one after another if Stroud retires just because Ballard did that.

One of those teams, Philly drafted Jalen Hurts when Ballard was shopping the FAs for QBs (ironically he doesn't like to shop for needs in other positions). It's okay that Ballard wanted to get Wentz and other FA QBs possibly to make it work with Reich's system but at the same time Ballard could've evaluated better about Hurts and drafted him when there's a high potential while still having got FA QB, whereas Philly actually did well there - which is why one of those teams have had better QB than Indy.

That will end the proceedings for the day, everyone. I'll pick for Steelers after a while, and @Mike06181 will pick for Rams and lions during the day. Thanks everyone for fast-tracking draft today, and getting it done quicker than expected. We'll meet tomorrow for Round 4 at same time, 7 PM EDT, thank you. Cheers!
