I understand that the quarterback is incredibly import. All you have to do is look at where New England finished without Brady and where Tampa finished with him. Then look at Dallas without Bryant. But I am against giving up the future for a back up quarterback who will get injured or benched half way through the season. Watson or Wilson would be on my radar but not the collection of backup quarterbacks that are being offered.

I'm not sure I would call him a failure. Maybe he has yet to live up to the high expectations, being the #2 overall selection. He's had success though. He has been a probowler and he has won a playoff game. Like Skinzwin said, maybe he just needs to be in a system that more suits his style.

When you are drafted #2 overall and the team that drafted you moves on and you are a backup on a team without a top-flight franchise QB, that is failure.

If he were a FA, take a flier. But he isn't.
