Because in a backup QB you want a guy who can come in a game late and win you a game or can start a game or 2 and win for you too. I think Fitz fits the mold, Andy Dalton too.
We get $2.5 million back if understand things correctly. Hopefully it's to bring Bates back as hate seeing him visit teams like the Vikings and Patriots.
Then I trade back and get him. Maybe a team like the Giants move up from the 2nd to get a QB in late Round 1. To me Dotson short area quickness/seperation makes him a deadly slot option toss in extra gear to take it to the house.
