that said, i would trade a 7th rounder for him. 7th round picks are meaningless. 

That is sort of my thoughts. His contract is up after next season, so there is pretty minimal risk. I would be willing to take a small gamble on a guy that might be able to develop into a useable backup(and I realize this is a long shot) than two guys who have an established track record of not being NFL caliber players.

Now, this is not to say there are not better options available but it makes very little sense to trade for guys like Bridgewater or Brissett at the price most teams would want. At best, we could use a player who has at least a halfway decent shot at being able to play in the NFL. 

Considering the state of our OL currently, I doubt we see much movement on a QB.

Lynch has to be a better option than anything we have currently 

I don't know if that's guaranteed.

Having Norv Turner would certainly improve our chances, but I'm definitely not sold on Lynch.

Elway probably wouldn't give him up for anything less than a pretty stiff price anyway.

Oh I am not implying it is a guarantee he is better. I would just rather gamble on someone who is still young and might have some salvageable talent. I think it is pretty clear our current options don't have what it takes. 

Considering his fall, I think it wouldn't be that hard to get Lynch away from Denver. I don't think Elway is very high on him anymore.

Elway may not be as high on him as it used to be, but that wouldn't stop him from setting a high asking price.

I am not sure if he was open to moving him that it would make sense to have an inflated value. I couldn't imagine him getting anything more than a 6th or 7th round pick and 6 seems pretty high. Plus there do seem to be some very good options as far as backup QB's to trade for if the price is high. 

But, we will never know until or if it happens.
