do several things better than Goff too... like recognize defenses better and process better
you might lose some arm talent but you get the mobility and off schedule stuff as well as down the field attempts McVay clearly wants
I think some people are still operating as if Goff is a top 15 QB rather than the bottom 1/3 QB we have seen the last two and quarter years

We already have 2 young back-ups on the roster. Minshew is a career clipboard holder - how is he better than Wolford? Or are you saying he's better than Goff? Which he is most certainly not.
I skeptical that the Rams are going to be able to get someone BETTER than Goff this year. The only path I see to an upgrade is trading for Watson which is remote at best.
But they may be able to get someone who is a much better value than Goff. A Minshew or several other options may be able to provide 95% of what Goff does for about 20% of the cost. The additional savings can be used to build up the team in other areas.
As usual, people typically underestimate the head/mental aspect of being a QB and overestimate the arm talent. And you definitely get more mobility with Minshew.
I think he would thrive in McVay's offense.
