What is our best QB option for 2021?

What should we do at QB? Specific proposals are appreciated!
They hired Shanahan to develop a great offense, and so far he has failed. Shanahan thinks he can win with a limited guy like Kirk Cousins or CJ Beathard, but that is arrogant and unwise. They need a great QB. Most superbowl winners have great QB's eg. Brady, Manning, Mahomes, Wilson, Rogers, Brees. Which of these QB's can be great?
Ideally I would try to trade for Stafford and draft OL, CB and pass rush.

But Kyle has worked with Jimmy G, so if likes him then keep JG and pick-up Darnold as back-up (or draft a developmental QB)

Roll with Jimmy. Cut Mullens. Sign anyone for 3rd string. Our draft position sucks for QB. Only draft one late as a project. Do not waste a high pick on a project.

Keep Jimmy, draft a rookie early, and add another savvy vet like Fitzpatrick or Mariota.
Anyone but trey lance. Thanks.

I don't see a Josh Rosen option.

1...Draft a rookie
2...Trade for Stafford
3...restructure Jimmy's contract
The option depends on availability.
Fields or Wilson for me and they sit for atleast half the season next year. I really hope we don't ruin it by winning one of our next 2 games.
Fields reminds me of Cam and I remember seeing a video of them training together from a few years ago and Cam hyping Justin up. It would feel so satisfying if Fields can succeed in Carolina.

+1 draft some oline help or a cb and let's see how it goes next year with a healthy team.

Sounds good but you're saying they'll be healthy. Their recent history doesn't bode well for that. JG, Kittle, Deebo and the RBs all seem to get hurt on a regular basis. We can only hope.

If we cant stay healthy it wont matter who is QB. We have to bank on staying healthy.
