I can see $20 million for a low-end starter, but is Willis even that at this point? He has done pretty much nothing in the league. I guess you could put him ahead of Howard, but they should be competing in the preseason for QB1. It should not be handed to Willis, as he just isn't that good or experienced at this point in his career. Honestly, I'd be happy going with Howard, and maybe another draft pick this year or, preferably, next year.
Agreed, I'd be fine with Howard and a draft pick and a cheaper option than Willis. If they did sign Willis at least it would only be 2 seasons and wouldn't stop them from looking/drafting another option this season or next.
Everyone is connecting Willis to Miami....I'm not sure about that. They've dumped some talented players and may be focusing on struggling this season to get a QB in 2027. Then again, all the "studs" in next year's draft weren't good enough to be a first-rounder this year. Once again banking on huge growth from a lot of QBs. I'm certain Manning would've gone first overall this year then Moore would've been top-5 this year, but not sure how good he'll actually be. He looked bad in his last game against NFL talent.
