A non-injured Morris wasn’t nearly as bad as KS as a rookie and he was seen as an inferior prospect. Commanders had Brandon Coleman start 12 games as a rookie 3rd rd pick and he never looked close to as bad as Suamataia.
KS was barely a 2nd rd pick at pick 63, an OT seen as a mid to late 1st rounder should in theory be a superior prospect to Suamataia and should have a quicker learning curve, in theory.
I don’t think the process here has to be all that complicated. Free agency starts a month from now, the draft starts 6 weeks after that. Free agency goal day 1 should be to acquire Stanley, Jackson, or Robinson if any are available. If you get one then OT isn’t a dire need in rd 1 but you probably still take one at some point in the draft to keep churning the talent.
If you strike out there then the team is kind of backed into a corner and OT becomes an absolute necessity in rd 1 or 2. You probably sign someone like Humphries or maybe Jedrick Wills as a veteran option and then you get to work scouting and acquiring your guys in the draft, probably Conerly or Ersery. Humphries (or whatever veteran they sign) is slated as the starter from day 1 and you have the rookie, Suamataia, and Morris all compete through TC and into the season.
Looks like a pretty fair, reasonable, and realistic plan A and plan B.

Brandon Coleman ****ing sucks and the only reason he even looked passable was bc his QB is as mobile as Lamar Jackson so teams had to control their rush instead of pure pass rushing.
Here is this kid getting owned by Nolan Smith in the NFCCG. First play on the video and then again at 10:39. He ****ing sucks
