Mcvay did choose Goff twice. First when he decided to take the head coach gig with the rams and then again when they extended him. He didn't have to do either.
But let's say for the sake of argument they did trade him. Who is your qb? We don't have a first round pick and not enough cap space to a sign or trade for a veteran that you would be excited about.
I think you need to hope Jared gets back on track either Saturday or next year. Plus draft a guy in the middle rounds to compete with Jared and Wolford.
Well, technically, McVay inherited Goff if he wanted the Ram job. So yeah, he DID have to.
As to trading Goff, I don’t know if it’s doable for ‘21 season. Cap experts have said it becomes more doable as years go by. However, if they can find the right trading partner... Anything might be possible in a give and take. It’s all about finding the right trading partner.
I think drafting a QB in 2nd or 3rd is more likely IF Snead/McVay see someone they like. Or maybe a FA that McVay sees with potential for his system? I don’t think McVay needs a 1st overall type QB to run his system. He does need accuracy, mobility, and football smarts, with ability to process quickly. He does not need 6’6” guy with a cannon arm. Heck, I suspect that McVay might see potential in Wolford for the short term. Look around the league. We are seeing some good looking QB’s around the league that were not drafted in the 1st round. I think McVay can really develop a young QB with potential to run his system. Look what he did with the floundering Goff in his first year. A Fisher-type HC couldn’t do it, but McVay? It’s just a matter of identifying some kid that’s a FA or in the draft.
Question. Is there a more important thing than a good QB on a football team? Nobody knows this better than Sean McVay. He might be willing to move mountains to get something done at QB. I sure wouldn’t bet against him taking some kind of action. I also wouldn’t be buying a Goff jersey right about now.
