I was literally surprised your GM did not draft Teddy Bridgewater rather than Dee Ford.
I thought, you sit Bridgewater behind Alex for 2 years and Bridgewater would be out of the gate like a shot in year 3. Alex would have been an awesome mentor, you still have a decent QB for 2 years for the bridge nibbling around the playoffs, then you have a chance at a franchise QB with Bridgewater.
Could have tagged Alex his 2nd year, made him play on the cheap contract this year.
Bridgewater might flop, but it was a great risk and Dorsey let it slip right through his fingers. Great linebackers are rare but far less rare than franchise QBs with top 10 potential. I'm not even saying Bridgewater had top 10 potential, but it was worth the risk.
