He was in the playoffs one year with Buffalo but that was about the defense and the running game and the playoff game he played against Jax was absolutely winnable but he pooed the bed. 

The Chargers won't trade for Dalton.  They also will not stay with Tyrod for a whole season.  History says that is a virtual guarantee.

He's not a top-tier QB or drafted in the 1st round. There's obvious room for improvement.
The only other places he's been after BUF were CLE and LAC.
He got hurt in CLE, which allowed Baker to debut. The Browns were then having success with Baker (who they just drafted 1st overall), so they wanted to keep rolling with him.
With the Chargers, he had to compete with future HOF Philip Rivers. While Rivers isn't in his prime anymore, he still threw for 66% completion for 4600 yards, which is better than Tyrod (and Dalton) would have done.

Look, I don't think he's going to go win a championship or anything, but if my options are Dalton at nearly $18 mill and Tyrod Taylor at $7.5 mill, I'd for sure go Taylor at that price. Neither is winning anything without elite talent around them, so may as well go with the one who is half the cost.
