I tend to agree with this line of thinking. But if I can play devil's advocate, here's a scenario where I can see us drafting a QB:
What if DC4 is injured for an undetermined number of games this season, to the point he can't play? I hesitate to say that out loud, because he's been pretty durable over his career, but we were dangerously close to that scenario 2x in 2023! JW2 is an excellent backup QB and possibly a starter in the right situation (not in NO though, IMO). However, I don't think DA is a JW2 fan even in the slightest, and I think JW2 knows it...which was a strong contributing element to the season-ending "mutiny" with Atlanta...JW2 is out of here, and he knows it. I think Haener was drafted specifically with intention of displacing JW2 as the backup QB. But that was in the CSP/PC offense. We've got a Kubiak now, and I think Haener has elements in his game that Purdy does....but WHAT IF Kubiak doesn't see it that way. We don't KNOW what Kubiak prefers in a QB, because we have no evidence of Kubiak-input on QB draftees. But let's say it is NOT Haener (theoretical argument). Let's say that Kubiak thinks that a Nix, Penix, McCarthy, or a Rattler is just the right lump of clay to mold for that Shanahan/Kubiak system. And let's say that guy is available (certainly in the 1st, possibly in the 2nd, and Rattler perhaps even later) and is CLEARLY the BPA on the board. How do you NOT take that guy?
And it might be prudent to take him as insurance against a DC4 injury?! Let's not forget that's how Mahomes ascended in KC. He sat behind Alex Smith for the first 12-14 games of his rookie season before getting his 1st start, and then never relinquishing the job. Let's not wish for that scenario, because that's just bad karma....but it would be quite short-sighted to purposefully AVOID that selection. Especially if its a guy Kubiak LIKES and WANTS.
So I tend to agree that QB isn't on our short list of draft needs, but we're not going to fill that backup QB role in a meaningful way through FA, and if the right guy falls into our laps as the BPA, it could happen. Kubiak is the wild card that would enable that situation. If PC was still here, I'd say "no way they draft a QB" in 2024. But with Kubiak as the new OC, I can see a scenario where a QB is taken, even if it's not DAs preference. JMO...
