So if we go that route forget about filling other needs like drafting high a stud running back this year. And I don't see any promising options at QB in free agency this year ?

If you draft the right QB, then the mortgage is worth it. How high the team theoretically moves up depends on how comfortable they are with the top 5 (Goff, Lynch, Cook, Wentz, Hack in some order) QB prospects. If they really love just one, then they should consider moving up. If at least 3 or 4 would work, then probably sit and watch most of the first 20 picks.

Unlike stud QBs, stud RBs are found all over. I'd be more concerned about not having the round 2-3 pick available for a TE, but even still, there's bound to be prospects in the mid rounds far better than what is already on the roster.

Can't let pick value dictate your QB needs. This is how the Texans got XSF over a QB.
