is it not possible to pick up Fields fifth year option to keep them around for another year, while you draft the top QB prospect? You could then trade whichever one doesn’t work out. sounds crazy but crazier things have been done. Any thoughts?

Good question - I guess you’d need to determine how drafting Williams would improve the roster if you’re keeping Fields as the starter and Bagent as the backup.
Drafting MHJ, an EDGE, DT, or OL would immediately improve the roster and that position.
Also if you were to trade Williams later on the value is likely lower in what you receive in return then the aforementioned other position that you would’ve drafted.
