Why not keep Andy as a backup?

Dalton gets a ton of undeserved hate and constantly called below average, sucks, worst in the League, etc, but lets have him "mentor" our shiny #1 pick because he's good enough to teach him how to be a good NFL QB. If Dalton is so bad and undeserving of starting (or even playing in the League according to some) why in the **** do we want him coaching up a prospect that everyone already claims is light years better? It just makes zero sense to me.

Trade or cut him. Use those resources to improve the OLine (not just re-sign Jerry and Redmond). Improve the LBs (don't re-sign Nickerson or Brown). Make the overall team better. That's the best thing Dalton could do for the 2020 Bengals. Either cap space + a draft pick or just cap space.

Completely agree again Muskies. Free up the dough no matter how you have to.

I don't think Dalton would be teaching Burrow much anyways. 

If we want a vet QB we can get one for much cheaper than Dalton.
