I would take that but I doubt it would happen.  Howell is the type of QB we should go after in FA in the offseason though.  Someone that fits the system and can play right now while we have a rookie sit.  We don't necessarily have to draft someone in the top 5.  If there's someone in the later rounds that makes sense, take them, and use the earlier pick on WR or Edge.

I agree about getting him in FA, my only concern is Andy making it through the rest of this season. 

Our draft situation is so interesting, and not in a good way. We have holes everywhere with no cornerstone players (maybe Brown and Horn). We need to do some magical drafting where we hit on more than round 1 or round 1 & 2, with everyone after that being dogshit. That being said, fill glaring holes this coming draft with BPA and no overreaching. The following year we target a QB and more BPA. 3 years from now, if all goes right, we’re back.

I hear ya.  If it were up to me, I'd IR Bryce with a mystery injury and acquire another QB to put behind Dalton.

That’s probably the best route. Secretly shop him to see what the market offers. 
 

I’d still make a push for Howell. Anyone on the couch right now isn’t going to come in and perform better than the two other QBs on the roster.

Howell isn’t going anywhere. Same with Stidham (who will probs replace Nix soon) and Lock (Ditto with Jones). And then interesting backups for good QBs aren’t going anywhere either (I.E Browning)

Aidan O’Connell is the one I could think of that could be pried for cheap, but unsure if it’s worth it.

Probably just roll with Andy and reset at QB again in the offseason.

Yeah, but realistically, that’s what we’re looking at haha. He’s not-bad in stretches, very Kyle Allen-esque, who could find a rhythm but also lose it like a bad habit.

If we need to simply backup Andy with not-Bryce, he’s one of the rostered guys we’d be talking about. 

Probably just roll with Plummer behind him at this point.

Ehhhhh I wouldn’t be so sure. There’s always a way.

What would Minnesota want for Darnold ?

it wouldn't happen , but I would like to be a fly on the wall when he is told Carolina is trying to trade for him 

I just can’t get behind this. 

We already had the Darnold experience here and I really don’t want to revisit that. He’s starting out strong there just like he did here, but let’s see what he looks like come week 8.

His value right now is higher than it’s probably been since he was drafted.  Definitely not worth entertaining.  At least wait until he flames out and collapses in a few weeks.

That’s basically Howell. 
 

Send Bryce to Miami or LA for hopefully a 2nd or 3rd (might be wishful thinking), offer Seahawks a 5th for Sam and wash our hands of this. 

It's very sad but your value on young right now is insane. What did the cowboys give for Lance?  I'd imagine Bryces trade value is less than that

I would love to see a move for a QB but I don't think it happens yet. I think everyone wants to see what it all looks like without Bryce. If it's not too bad then he really might not get another shot which would lead to a QB acquisition hopefully.

Stash him, trade him or whatever works. First comes this next game and a chance for everyone else to prove it wasn't them.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.

      Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
