Why not keep Andy as a backup?

Give Burrow the reps. Let him lead the team. Peyton Manning played through a terrible rookie season, he learned from it. It didn't hamper his development. The next year he killed it. Give Burrow the keys. 

Dalton's a great guy, but he isn't worth the money. Spend that money extending Mixon and AJ. Leave some space in case of injuries.

Radio guys were drawing the Manning conparison to Manning and rookie QBs. I guess to me the thing is the team around them. Manning that second season had a good team (if I'm remembering right) whereas a lot of QBs walk into a dumpster fire on both sides.

If the team ends up being as good as it looks on paper, send burrow out and let him get his lumps. If it's last seasons team, for all that's good in the world, keep him on the bench a year and let the team improve.
