I'd rather have Geno instead of Dalton standing back there. Not great, but Dalton needs to just ride off into the sunset, or be launched into the sun. Whatever works out best.

If that was the only option, 100% yes. Cutting Dalton is move #1 this offseason.

I would not want him. Willis or Howell for younger unproven or Mariota or Trubisky for uninspiring vet. 

dude...my god...the howell homers are HARD on for that guy.  hes a backup, but not someone to improve bryce.  Willis WILL NOT BE on our team next year.  someone is coming with a truck for him and it wont be us. Mariota...ehh maybe but hes old.  Trubisky I 100% could see.  Look for us to sign a wentz or Minshew.

Cutting the backup qb?

that’s what you think is move #1?

QB play is the biggest problem with this team. I'd trade Bryce, but assuming we don't do that, the next best thing we can do is bring in some actual competition for the job. 

Not sure what's surprising about that. Like you think off ball LB is more important?

Geno would be a HUGE upgrade on Dalton and could push Bryce a bit. I’d be all for pursuing him if he’s released. Contract he’s on is too steep though. And I wouldn’t want him to be the only add at QB — Willis is ideal but also would draft a guy with some developmental potential (physical traits) day 3. 
 

I don’t see any chance we move on from Bryce sadly but my ideal overhaul of the QB room is going from Bryce/ghost of Dalton/scrubs to Willis/Geno/rookie.

I see Howell as better than Dalton and if he's able to legit compete for a starting spot, whatever. At this point I'm not to ashamed to go scraping the bottom of other people's barrels. We've got Andy Dalton and Jack Plummer. Who the fug are we to talk poo about anyone else's QBs.

Bro I can't tell if you're serious or not. Yes I'd dump Bryce in a second if it was me. What I'm saying is improving the QB room is the top priority. I'm glad to get in a posting war but like I said, can't tell if that's where you're going.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
