Dalton's trade value was at a peak level 4 years ago. We could have got a first rounder for Dalton back then, now we'd be lucky to get a third rounder for him. That's assuming he can even be traded.
He's only got two more years on his contract and teams won't want to give up a high draft pick for a player that they will only get for a couple years.
I said because they, meaning guys like Glennon and Bradford, keep getting signed people will value him. This was a nod to the fact that good QB's are needed in the league. I told you Smith had a larger contract when he got traded and you ignored it. I told you he is better than Case Keenum, who by the way is making more than Dalton, and you ignore it. $16 Million a year for a starting QB is NOTHING.
He can be traded and it really hasn't made much of a difference in that realm. I'd expect a similar take as to what Chiefs got for Alex Smith. 3rd and a player would be the starting point and the player better be young and high upside.
Alex Smith only had a year left when he was traded and they immediately extended him to a much larger deal.
