Maybe a team like Washington would want Dalton in a trade to team up with Gruden.  You would have the benefit of having Rosen on a rookie deal for 3 more years with a fifth year option. Dalton’s contract is coming up soon and we  need money to resign guys like Green, Boyd and Willam Jackson III in the near future. If we draft an OT at 11 and Price plays like a 1st round pick we would have two 1st round picks on the O-line under Rookie contracts along with a qb and young weapons in Mixon and Boyd and perhaps Ross. I would spend money on a young free agent LB like Barr, Hicks, Mosley or Alexander. It’s time for a youth movement. The secondary has some young good pieces in Jackson and Bates and a young free agent LB  in his prime would help the linebacker group and we have young guys up front like Hubbard and Lawson.

I guess the question in this scenario is how much you are itching to take a step backwards in the new coach's rookie year.
