If Bennett was worth what you're willing to give up for him, he wouldn't be a #4.Im talking for next year bc someone will offer him osweiler money so i wanna get something for him and personally i dont think lafell is any better than a tate so i dont think he will be reupped listen i love mccarron but were not gonna be able to keep him to sit on the bench as a backup nust like marvin jones we offered him the same contract but in detroit hes number 1 reciever and im sorry but if we let laffell go were bankin on core to be our 2 hope he proves me wrong
We know that if Dalton goes down for an extended period of time, McCarron can keep the team competitive. If you're trading him this year, you need to get dividends this year, because you're creating a hole this year to fill one next year.
Next year, LaFell could be reupped, Boyd and/or Core could have proven themselves as the #2, or we get another in FA or the draft.
Quality backup QB's are a lot harder to come by than quality #2 WR's. Proven quality backup QB's are much higher value than unproven #2 WR prospects with less than 45 minutes of game film against backups.
Highly drafted rookies are almost never traded in year 1 unless they can't agree to contract terms.
Scouting reports mean zip. Brian Robiskie was another Buckeye who was supposed to be the most pro ready WR in his draft class. How did that turn out?
