Having watched Ballard for a number of years now, I think they trade down and amass the stock capital to trade up in 2024 rather than take the best defender in the draft.
At that point, Minshew and Foles battle it out for who is starting in 2023 with Sam as the 3rd QB.

Good point. Although under that scenario I can't imagine Foles being any higher than QB3 with how awful he was in his 2 starts last year.
Looks like he wasn't due any sort of offseason roster bonus, at least per OTC. So guessing he hasn't been released since there's no reason to now unless we needed the cap space, which is only $2.1M.
