I thought of the possibility that we trade DA for a 3rd round pick. He is a game manager quatetback. He could easily go to Chicago and thrive in that offense. He could also go to another team that has qb needs (I pray he will never go to the jets). He won both games he started for us this year and you won't find a qb with a better win percentage than him. He is on a reasonable contract and if we have the leverage might even get a second rounder. I know he has great chemistry here. The question I'm asking is would you want him to be our back up or trade him for a pick and get a new back up?

Never underestimate the value of a good cheap back up QB. Gotta keep him around.

The thing is though, cam is a huge tank. He rarely gets hurt. Other than this season he hadn't missed a game. We could get a key wide receiver with that pick. We could also draft a a qb on day 3 and develop him. Fit the system of cam better. Like running the ball quarterback. Brett Hundley (I know we won't get him but it's an example so bear with me).

How many other QBs are really considered starters in the 2015 NFL draft outside the top two.  In QB heavier drafts, yeah...you won't get much, but in years where the QB position is weak in the draft and teams desperate for a starter you might find a sucker.

This.

Some of you live in a fairytale world

If the bears gave Jay cutler a 100 million dollar contract. They would definitely be desperate and maybe stupid to get a relatively cheap qb for a 2nd round pick. Personally I think it all depends who the coaches will be for all the new teams before I can make a more accurate prediction of what we could get in return.

    • Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack
    • Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.
    • Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
