I would take Fields honestly if we could get him for a 4th.

 

Again it will never happen because we are set on making Bryce work.

Yup, they are going to force it even though Bryce doesn't fit.

Kirk Cousins might be taking his talents to ATL...

Fields is destined for Vegas or a sleeper team. ATL and PIT aren’t happening.

I think the actual interest in Fields is going to be very low until after free agency and maybe the draft. That is when you will see teams that didn't position themselves as well as they had hoped start to get desperate.

Fields is definitely one amazing runner and could be a great threat if he would just improve his passing skills. After this much time I doubt it happens but I do think he is better than Ridder and would definitely be an upgrade. Not for any break the bank deal though as I just dont think Fields has proven to be some top QB worthy of top QB money.

I don't know if we're set on making Bryce work, but we're definitely set on giving him a fair shot this season with a new staff and (hopefully) upgraded roster.

Why rule out Pitt?  I think they could make it work if Tomlin wanted to.  Slash 2.0

Ben Solak from The Ringer made the case for the Browns to trade for him, cutting bait from Deshaun.

I wouldn't rule him out, but the Steelers don't historically give up draft capital, much less before the draft has even started. The franchise is very conservative. That being said, I've heard that Fields is likely not going to have the market that he would like, and that the Bears are not going to get the compensation that they would like. If Chicago doesn't make a move before free agency, Fields may lose out in that QB game of musical chairs.

Watson is a far better player than Fields. That makes little sense. If you want to bench Watson, just keep Flacco until Watson becomes cheap enough to cut.

Combination of their historical MO, Tomlin, Arthur Smith's preferences, and the rumors they want to give Pickett one more shot.  

I think that's who signs Tannehill as in-season insurance to Pickett and they'll end up in the QB hunt (maybe with us) come 2025.

All my homies hate Deshaun Watson.

Why don't you think PIT?  I saw where Tomlin was high on him and that Arthur Smith offense would work with him as QB.  

-never mind you answered this already.
