Let all other un-named FA walk. However, I don't think a total rebuild is necessary. There are a number of "our guys" going into FA who I think should be resigned that will keep this team competitive. I know we cannot keep everyone, but we're gonna have to bring a lot of those guys back if we wanna remain competitive rather than relying on a bunch of cheap vet replacements and rookies that need to be coached up. Otherwise lets just call it a full rebuild and get it over with. But the must-stay's are, in my mind, critical to remaining competitive in 2021, especially with guys like Nick Bosa, Dee Ford, George Kittle, Raheem Mostert, and some rotational pieces all coming back healthy next season. I am praying that we draft a QB with our first pick, and fully expect for Shanny and Lynch to bring in a veteran QB to force an honest QB competition. So I see us carrying 3 QB's.
I'm completely out on Jimmy G. My only worry with that is the the QB's slated to hit the street in 2021 isn't that promising outside of Dak Prescott, even with the injury.

But Dak would be problematic because no team that brings him in is realistically drafting a QB with their first pick, or at all. He's gonna command a big contract. So bringing in Dak means that we likely resign/tender Mullens and cut Jimmy, because Jimmy isn't winning a QB competition with a QB we just gave a bunch of money too. (But he's not better than Dak Prescott, so he wouldn't win it anyway.)
So the way I see it we go get Robert Griffin III or Jameis Winston as one year rentals to compete with Jimmy while the rookie redshirts.
