Either way , with a vet like Fitz here for a at least a year gimme the guy with a higher ceiling and a bigger learning curve every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

I understand what you are saying. But you could also say that if Fields or Lance started as many games as Mond, they might show the same inconsistencies, or display some other weaknesses. You just don't know.
I just have a hard time giving up what it would take to get Lance or Fields, and then have him sit for a year. That's just me.
