A strong defense buoyed Washington through multiple quarterback in 2020. Smith takes care of the ball so well (five interceptions over 203 attempts in his six starts last season) that he has drawn criticism for not letting it loose downfield. But a proverbial caretaker is all the Bears need under center next season, in order to reverse a -4 turnover margin from 2020 and get the most out of their weapons (with or without Allen Robinson).

This is to say that Knox will not have a role with the office next season. It just means that they could upgrade the position to create a two-man approach. Knox finished 2020 with 24 catches for 288 yards and three touchdowns.NFL Design Face Masks | NFL Design Face Coverings

If the price is more reasonable -- a third or fourth-round pick, the kinds of selections involved in recent Teddy Bridgewater and Joe Flacco trades -- then the Patriots should have no issues with that. 

The Jaguars have run a Cover 3 scheme out of a base 4-3 since former head coach Gus Bradley was hired in 2013: Three deep zones and four underneath zones and pressuring the quarterback with almost exclusively just the front four. It worked really well in 2017, when the Jaguars made a run to the AFC Championship game with a defense that led the NFL in pass defense and finished second in total defense, scoring defense, turnovers forced and sacks.Detroit Lions Face masks

Cross was a former seventh-round selection by the Eagles out of Northwestern in the 1961 NFL Draft. In his first initial stint with the Eagles, Cross made the Pro Bowl in two consecutive seasons (1964-65). After the 1965 campaign, Cross was traded to the Rams, where he spent a total of three seasons with the team. In 1969, Cross returned to Philadelphia as a player and defensive backs coach and remained in the later role in 1970 before announcing his retirement.Philadelphia Eagles Face masks

The fact they skip on a signal caller is intriguing. That means they’d either be happy with Josh Rosen and a veteran they sign, or that there’s a player later on Day 3 that they’d be comfortable with going into the future with. Their QB issue isn’t big enough to warrant a massive trade up just to get a player, but it’s significant enough that they can’t just forego the position entirely barring the acquisition of a high-quality signal caller via trade.
