I'm confused at those who are ticked off, what is the alternative solution? Heineke again? We know he isn't winning anything

You nailed it IMO.
I don't actually
love the move, but I voted loved it because I actually really like it (and there was no in between voting option).
They were
running out of options, they had to
guarantee an upgrade, they gave away a couple of 3rd round picks... This is a
low risk potentially high reward move, I know we're not getting 2017/2018 Wentz, but can you remember the narrative about him back then ?
We were talking MVP.
Then injuries and mental struggles came in, but if he can become 75% of that player again, that's a QB you can win with... And if he doesn't, are we really gonna blame this FO for losing 2 3rd round picks in trying to upgrade the position?
