I'd agree it would be stupid if we could get anything for him, but if we are faced with cutting Dalton and putting Finley, or Dolegala, or a 10 million dollar ho-hum vet behind Burrow I'd just stick with Dalton for a year.

Andy is a team-player (to a fault, it seems) and I think he'd legit help Burrow and developing Burrow is our 15+ year investment.  So Dalton for a year could help Burrow more than a few late free agent guys on a 2-14 team.

It just kinda sucks we're gonna cut Dalton for nothing and he's going to go to the scrapheap when Palmer threw a fit and he got rewarded by getting starting gigs for the next 6 years and we got a 1st and 2nd pick for it.  Nice guys finish last?  Hell, this doesn't even help us....bogus.
