Why not keep Andy as a backup?

It's been:
We'll get a 1st or 2nd for Andy
Ok, we can still get a mid-rounder
Well, maybe someone will throw us a late rounder

Then there's been:
Andy will be a malcontent
Then Andy does an interview asserting he'll accept the mentor role
Then Andy is the first to welcome Burrow once we draft him

Now it's
We cannot afford him
We can easily afford him by cutting Hart and Williams
and then comes the best yet....We need Bobby Hart

FA is done but the scraps and the draft is complete. Cutting Andy Dalton makes this team worse. It's really quite simple.

I really don’t know why you’re digging your heels in so much on this. Your prediction about keeping Dalton came before we had our biggest FA in franchise history (and 3rd most in the league this year). We spent like 150m dollars fixing our defense. We literally can’t afford a 17m dollar backup QB. Cutting much more valuable players like Hart or Shawn Williams to make room for a guy to hold a tablet would be insane.
