There is a scenario we're the ones without a chair when the music stops, but still lots of things would have to fall into place for that to happen. Brady is the key.
Assume Bridgewater signs with the Bears. New England would be Dalton's next best suitor. If Brady leaves, I don't think they go to Mariota or Winston, as those guys aren't Belichik's kind of QB. Assuming Rivers to the Colts, I bet he pivots to Dalton. They have tons of draft picks after all.
Now, assume Brady back to NE for the sake of argument. That means maybe TB goes for Dalton. And then for the sake of argument let's say they re-up Winston instead. There is still a chance that Carolina trades Newton and acquires Dalton. Despite LAC's and Denver's rhetoric about sticking with the guys they have, don't rule them out.
I agree we shouldn't overplay our hand here, and the leak about how we're "willing to listen to offers" from J. Anderson worries me a bit, a lot would still have to go wrong to end up holding the bag on Dalton.
Word is Bridgewater is Plan B for TB. As he can only be in one place, TB to TB would put Chicago back in play for Dalton.
I do have a strange feeling NE is his most likely destination if Brady leaves.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.
