Of all the QBs we might look into, there's one name you should keep on your radar

No. This team has 3 options right now.

1. Draft a QB and hand them the keys

2. Trade for or sign a franchise QB (Rodgers, Wilson, etc.)

3. Trot out PJ Walker or whatever bum we find, and repeat until 1 or 2 is achieved. 

I think there is only one option.  Draft a tackle.   Roll out Sam one more year and in 2022 make your move for a rookie qb in the draft.  It’s the only viable way to build this team.

PJ is too much of a gunslinger to lead your to a #1 pick like Clausen.  You would have weeks where it worked out.  What we need to do is just bring Clausen out of retirement.   I mean if you want to tank for #1 you need to get it.  PJ end up giving you the 5 pick or something we draft McCaffrey again or some poo. 

Two words.

There's very few active, non-retread NFL QBs that I'd be game for acquiring to potentially start.  I fully expect us to draft Willis, Corral, Pickett, Howell, Ridder or Strong.  

Then we target a "starter if the rookie isn't ready" type that's not Darnold (Could still be Darnold)

There's a nice and ugly list of potential guys that are realistic (Rogers and Wilson aren't coming here):

Mariota (2022 FA, Retread, Pass)

Trubiski (2022 FA, Retread, Pass)

Nick Foles (2022 FA, Retread X3, Pass)

Jameis Winston (2022 FA, meh)

CJ Beathard (Contracted 2022, maybe)

Andy Dalton (No, Hard Pass)

Drew Lock (Contracted 2022, maybe, but retread like Darnold)

Kirk Cousins (If they don't land a playoff win, I could see them getting anxious) 

Tua Tag (Unproven, injury prone and a bit bland)

I swear to god half of your must have exes with restraining orders out against you. 

He isn't returning but it isn't any worse than the Sam Darnold homers that still think he's going to magically turn into a franchise qb after being outperformed by Daniel Jones.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
