Who would want him at this point and he's going to be a UFA next season anyway... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topwop1 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Rumor or not they should try to deal Mitch for at least something if they know he's not their future and won;t be back next season. At least recoup some asset. Tho I doubt any team would give up anything for him at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate that I'm thinking about this now... but... 49ers wouldn't be crazy. Their QB is banged up, and I've always thought Mitch could be OK in NE because they'd fit the system to his skills, but the 49ers kind of already fit him. Still be stunned if for no other reason than the Foles' history with ouchies, and well, Tyler Bray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G08 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Yeah we have to remember Foles has never started in more than 11 games in his career. I hope that trend changes here, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at what point is the risk of having to start Bray worth the 5th or 6th Tru warrants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless, for some psychotic reason, some GM thinks Mitch is the real deal, and Chicago just done him wrong. I'd imagine my odds of winning the lottery are higher than that. That being said, it wouldn't surprise me at all if Mitch HAS actually demanded a trade. QBs are almost as brain dead as WRs when it comes to accepting the realities of the league... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on the hook even if he gets traded to another team I believe. Essentially he would be a free reserve for 2020 for any team that takes him.

I know we gain practically nothing cap-wise from cutting him so I assumed we were stuck with his guarantees as well. Just tried the Spotrac Roster Manager tool though and traded for Bejour Wilson from AZ (just because he's super cheap) and it says we saved $4.5 mil. So I don't understand the breakdown but it seems you were correct. So until next time Doofenshmirtz, the baseball is on the other foot! - or... however that saying goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, just about every single quarterback that comes out and sucks gets people clamoring for him on a trade around the league... I distinctly remember multiple people talking about kicking the tires on Rosen and even within the last few days Darnold....who like mitch, has shown flashes of talent, followed by the bad getting dismissed because of how inept the rest of his offense and coaching are. I wouldn't be shocked if at least one other team wasn't willing to kick the tires on Mitch... They'll just go into it knowing his limitations better than Pace apparently did. Personally I could still see mitch potentially being a top half of the league qb, but he's going to have to do it in a college style offense that dramatically limits his reads and makes liberal usage of his skills as a running threat. And there's just not a whole bunch of teams that fit that mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
