    • By no means am I sold on Dave and Dan but Morgan played NFL football at a high level and knows what he is looking at. I firmly believe Tepper anchored these guys with Bryce and told them they had to try to fix him before moving on. Dan has made enough decent moves to convince me he understands how to build a team.
    • The Purdy contract was incredibly dumb but at the same time he was being an effective game manager and they were winning games. I understand the fear of moving on from that. I think it was dumb and incredibly limited their future potential but it's a far cry from the Bryce situation where it's pretty obvious we have one of the worst starters in the league.
    • I think the ideal situation for both parties would be for the team to let Bryce know that they will not be picking up the 5th year option. Then you tell him that a viable QB (via the draft, trade, or FA) will be brought in with the intent of him becoming the starter next season...unless Bryce clearly outperforms them in in camp and in the exhibition season. Then Bryce, as you said in your post, would feel insulted and asked to be traded. Hopefully, we'd have an interested party and who'd be willing to give us a day 3 pick that we can turn into a depth piece or a viable O-lineman (most starting centers and guards in the NFL are Day 3 selections).  Problem solved. He'd no longer be on the roster to cause any tension and be able to get  fresh start elsewhere.  If you can't find a trade partner, and he's ok with the back up role that would be fine. if he isn't willing to remain on the roster as a backup then you release him.
