Congratulations, you have fulfilled your mandated and filled your depth chart:
1) Kirk Cousins
2) Christian Ponder
3) Chad Kelly
FA money spent: $41 million
Draft picks spent: R1 (#2 overall), 2018 R1, R2
There's no doubt that you invested HEAVILY in Kirk Cousins, which will hurt your ability to build up the rest of the roster. However, coach Kyle Shanahan feels confident that he can patch together the rest of an offense with spare parts and get this team moving the ball again. Between Cousins, Carlos Hyde and Joe Staley, you'll have a solid offense here. If you inch closer to .500 or so, giving up that 2018 1st rounder won't sting so badly.
Analysts and local media also like what you've done with the rest of the depth chart. Christian Ponder may not be an exciting name, but he's a competent backup who can fill in if Cousins gets hurt. And Chad Kelly is in an ideal situation here to develop. He has two smart veterans in front of him who won't need much coaching; your staff can put in extra time getting him up to speed. And who knows -- if Kelly keeps his nose clean and thrives -- maybe you can parlay him into a high pick in the future. Well done.
grade: A-
Cousins is kinda the can't miss. I like Jimmy but not enough upside. Dragon penis was a tempting option tho

Congratulations, you have fulfilled your mandated and filled your depth chart:
1) Brian Hoyer
2) Mitch Trubisky
3) Christian Ponder
FA money spent: $15 million
Draft picks spent: R1 (#2 overall)
Your mandate was to fill out a depth chart at QB and you tackled that challenge aggressively on both fronts -- luring over an expensive (future backup) like Brian Hoyer, and drafting Mitch Trubisky at #2.
That combination makes a lot of sense. As a one-year starter, Trubisky will need some time to develop (or at least, need some veterans in the locker room helping him learn the playbook.) He couldn't ask for a better mentor than Brian Hoyer, who has starting experience, and knowledge of the Shanahan system. Hoyer can start for a year, if necessary, until he hands over the reins to Trubisky.
Having Christian Ponder as your 3rd stringer represents extra protection on that front. If Hoyer gets hurt (as he's prone to do), Ponder can replace him as your stopgap/bridge QB.
Overall, your fate will be determined by Trubisky's success, but you've set him up well here. Nice work!
