Anyone that would suggest that either of these teams should move on from these guys and just let them walk versus paying them market value might have a good conversation until you let your quarterback walk and replace him with someone not as good and needing development.

But you aren't paying them for what they've done, it's what they will do int he future. If they aren't good enough to carry a potential lesser team because of their contract, are they worth it?

Or could you take a slightly lesser qb, Alana young draft pick etc, build your team around him while not breaking the bank on him and try and win that way?

With the new passing rules, it's making it easier and easier for lesser qbs to be adequate.

So if that's the case, why pay big money for guys who rely on the talent around them when you can get the same thig for cheaper?
