I didn't want him to go and believe at one time we could convince him to stay for something fair to both sides but after those comments he will be gone in off-season and might as well get something for him.

You think they will offer us that much compensation?

My guess if I had to put money on your questions would be No No No Wish I felt differently but I have zero confidence in Bryce to really do much of anything at all as far as what a real QB does or looks like in the NFL

Well I mean, maybe it won't be fresh in their minds...? You're probably right, he can't look any worse. Fug it, throw him out there so I can have something to laugh at a little more

But he has no future and I worry if we play him more, we won't even be able to get a 7th rounder for him at seasons end. Thoughts...?

I just learned that from @Mage unfortunately. But there is the offseason to take anything at all for him which will probably be next to nothing.

Seriously...? Sanders is a rookie and shows signs that he can develop into a regular contributor and you want to cut him now not even half way through the season in his rookie year?

I was wondering the same thing actually. I heard he was a blocker but Ive seen some pretty bad attempts at blocking from him so far.

You make complete sense and thinking about it from your standpoint is the best way to move forward as you said. Having him the rest of the season just because Bryce isnt an NFL QB and Dalton is struggling really does nobody any good in this wasted season anyhow. Any we are definitely not the Packers or anywhere even close thats for sure!

Totally agree on playing him as little as possible for sure! Nobody needs any more of that play!

Can't deny that. The players seemed to respond to Wlks during that time. Would it have continued? Who knows but we didnt even give it a shot the next season and instead hired someone that was fired half way through the following. Could have been advantageous to have Wilks back for one solid audition seasons as head coach to see what he does or give him a few year deal that Tepp would have fired him from immediately if he stunk it up anyhow. Nothing really to lose there since we hired a head coach next that didnt even seem to care to be here coaching or have any personality or energy what so ever.

Makes sense and I see what you mean. I realize he is no savior as of today but potentially Fields could be fixable to some degree even to be a reliable quality backup IF he did not want a monster payday. Not many other alternatives unless of course they do draft a new QB as you said

If I had to choose between Fields and Bryce, I would take Fields all day. He at very minimum does not play scared out of his mind and will throw a ball downfield further than 3 yards even if he is not the most accurate. He is at least a backup QB in this league that you could have. Bryce on the other hand is not a capable backup from what I have seen last season and this season.

If that's the case then we cant even trade him this season I guess unfortunately. Off season, Bryce should be traded for something but I can't imagine we are going to be getting anything at all for him potentially other than some player everyone writes off as a disappointment or bust themselves in an even swap.

Hey, at least Fields can do SOMETHING and offer the team SOMETHING at all other than cheerleader/clip board holder you dont want to EVER come in because you know he can do nothing more than throw a three yard pass.

Yeah wtf an attempt or trying to get something at all even marginally better for Bryce. Holy poo what a concept and the audacity to even have that thought

I think they call that "drug" an offer don't they? You never know unless you try and who knows, they may feel Bryce could be fixed. Fields is seen as a let down and Bryce is younger so potentially some team may view him as fixable. Or I guess we can just let Bryce stand there and hold a clip board doing nothing?

So is Bryce so who gives a poo and why not?

I figured they would since they got Russel Wilson back and Fields is a free agent after this year.

Wasnt he nearly available in a trade a couple years ago when the Ravens were trying to work out his contract?

Oh okay I gotcha!

A whole thread on a trade of Bryce for Fields? I missed it i guess.....? I saw the free agent thread but didnt see the Bryce for Fields thread..? My bad

Am I being stupid and ridiculous or are we not getting a damn thing for Bryce as far as draft picks go anyhow and does Fields have enough in him to do a Sam Darnold turnaround with enough help from a head coach dedicating time to him to work with him? We dont have anything to lose really, why not? Disagree? Then post away and tell me how stupid I am but lets debate it for fun anyhow.

Oh yeah I forgot about Winston. That dude can definitely sling the leather. Its either going in his guy's hands or the other teams but he is always fun to watch and plays fearless. Also has a potential to give some good pregame speeches and eat some W's which anybody has to enjoy seeing.

Interesting, thank you for taking the time to give me some insight and teaching me a little bit!
