If someone is willing to overpay for backup QBs (a lot of people seem to be) why not take advantage of that?
For instance, the 10th overall pick this year could have gotten you Todd Gurley, or the 42nd overall pick could have gotten you Eric Kendricks. I would make that trade for a backup QB every time.
So you would give a potential franchise QB to a division rival? There would need to be a premium price for that to happen in my opinion.
Besides I think Cleveland is destined to hire Gase, roll Manning as their starter next year and draft a Qb at 1 to sit behind manning for the year and redshirt.
