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?

    Not true for a number of the examples you listed, lance true, but Pickett started early into his rookie year, Hebert started game 1 of his rookie year and Tua also started middle of his rookie year. None of those teams also had qbs that were on the final deal of a rookie deal (ie where fields is at currently) having an older bridge qb is quite different than what we have rn

      If someone is ready to come in after a year or 8 games. That’s up to the team
