Ryan Fitzpatrick's arrival won't keep Washington from drafting a QB early

ASHBURN, Va. -- The Washington Football Team knows exactly what it's getting in quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick: a guy who can move the ball, will be fun and at times maddening, and can serve as a mentor. Fitzpatrick will also turn 39 during the season, which is why his arrival doesn't signal the end of Washington's quarterback search.
Fitzpatrick is what everyone thinks he is: a stopgap quarterback who can help a team win now while waiting for someone else to help later. And that player could still come through the draft.
Had Washington pursued a different quarterback -- whether it be former first-round picks such as Mitchell Trubisky (Bears), Marcus Mariota (Raiders) or Sam Darnold (Jets) -- it would possibly have been more tempted to see if that guy could still develop into a quality starter.

Will New York Giants keep Colt McCoy or seek an upgrade at backup QB?

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Daniel Jones is the guy. He is the New York Giants' starting quarterback for what they hope is now and many years to come.
That much is indisputable, despite the quarterback carousel this offseason. What is uncertain is everything behind the Giants' QB1 right now, with NFL free agency opening March 17 and the 2021 NFL draft on April 29.
Colt McCoy, the Giants' backup this past season, is a free agent. Clayton Thorson and Joe Webb are the only other quarterbacks under contract. Thorson spent most of 2020 on the practice squad and Webb was brought in as a multi-positional option during a season impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.

How the Denver Broncos can win their offseason

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- When new Denver Broncos general manager George Paton pulls into his parking space each day, it's for a team that has missed the playoffs in each of the past five seasons.
But the Broncos have enough salary cap room to dive into free agency -- currently north of $40 million with room to make more. They also have the No. 9 pick in the 2021 NFL draft and four picks among the first 109 with nine selections overall.
In short, they can get some things done -- even in a year when the salary cap has gone down in the wake of the pandemic. The cap is expected to be somewhere between $185 million and $189 million per team.

Dolphins' critical offseason centers on QB room, who to draft at No. 3

While the Dolphins are committed to Tua Tagovailoa, there's still opportunity to draft a QB or perhaps go after Deshaun Watson if he becomes available.
