Andy Reid already starting his tenure out in KC as a colossal failure. One of the worst trades I've seen in quite some time.

The alternative is waiting until he gets cut, then have someone else pick him up and you are left with the bottom of the barrel in FA or the draft since no one in the draft this year is projected as a Luck or Griffen III.
HOWEVER, look what the Skins did, skipped over QB in the draft when they didn't like what they saw and waited a year. Even with Beck/Rexy suckiness. And it has paid off hasn't it???
