You make some good points. I think we should absolutely try to upgrade the QB2 position this offseason: 1) There are options mentioned in the comments above that would probably be an upgrade over Dalton, maybe significantly given his age. Regardless of how they feel about Andy as a mentor, the NFL season is 17 games, and many if not most QBs miss time due to injury. There is a very good chance your QB is going to have to play at some point. For that reason alone, we should and need to find the very best QB2 we can within the constraints of the rest of the cap. Bryce has been very physically resilient when he has been starter, but just like any player he's one play away from being out for the season. 2) Over the last 5 games, Bryce showed why he was drafted #1 overall. I think the plan should be to continue to build around Bryce with the idea he is going to be your franchise QB going forward. But beyond my first point and back to yours above, part of a championship culture is to have consistent competition at every single position. I don't think Canales would have a quick hook for Bryce going forward, but you need to continue to constantly develop and having a QB ready to lead should disaster happen. Whether that's injury or a guy just not being able to lead effectively like Bryce wasn't able to do for most of his rookie season (mostly not his fault), to the Bryce of the first 2 games this season where it was mostly his fault, poo can happen at any position and you need a backup plan. The Cleveland Browns are case in point. I don't think it will ever be possible for another franchise to top their current streak of QB dysfunction. Andy Dalton reminds me of how Derek Anderson was here. DA went from a great backup who could have probably competed for a starting job somewhere else into a statue who couldn't hit open guys in a couple short years. Not saying Daltons drop-off has been that dramatic, but it's also hard to see him leading this team should Bryce go down. -

Trust me, if Evero has anything to say about it we will spend 20% of our cap and picks on Safeties. -
