Why not keep Andy as a backup?

And here I always heard backup QB was the best job on the team, but apparently it’s also the most important. Who knew.

And that’s where I agree with you. I would rather see AJ and Mixon secured for the next 3-4 years while we develop their replacements. We can get a cheap vet QB that will be a solid backup. You can argue about the potential for injuries to your star players, but thats just the risk you take for having good players. That’s why depth is important. Hang onto Geo. Draft a running back in a couple years.

We can afford to surround Burrow with talent, so get it done. Then we’ll likely have to let Aj and Mixon walk when we go to resign Burrow.

Im not against hanging on to Dalton. It just has to be at the right price. Id rather not sacrifice depth to keep him.
