Washington Football team looking to trade for Trubisky per Chris Trapasso tweet - tweet later deleted

Obviously if they are even entertaining trading Mitch than our 3rd or 4th sting QB must be showing improvement in practice or on the PS.

If you get Heineke back, I would do it.  Heineke is a better than average back up.

 

I just don't understand the rumor though, Washington is done.

They get Trubisky in for a half of the season to see if he can be their #1 next year.  The draft is incredibly weak at QB, and RIvera's 3rd year is coming up.

Trubisky is a FA and can take any offer out there.

You think if he goes to Washington, plays half a season for them and gets an offer to stay on as the starter, he leaves?

I know we need help on the oline, and while Trubisky may never even play significant time with us I have a weird feeling about potentially trading him away. I feel like (God forbid) he can play well enough to win some games short term if we should need him to. I hope he never has to, but I feel much better about him being here than not

1st and and 3rd and he’s all yours. You get him at a great deal $$$.

If Josh is hurt, we are done.  I’d rather have an all pro Guard protecting him than a backup QB 

[Call_Of_Ktulu]

I wonder if it’s Webb or Fromm who will be elevated from the PS to be Allen’s backup

[Estro]

He's valuable insurance, but if the offer is a 4th round pick it starts to become enticing.  For a 5th, I'm not sure Beane would do it.

 

A 4th rounder with. Condition to buy up to a 3rd rounder becomes all the more enticing. 

 

Great asset management, if Beane is able to turn a great, low cost FA signing into a valuable mid round pick.

If Allen goes down season is scrapped anyways, so go for it. Don't want to see a trade for futures, need immediate help on the O-line or RB.

Not with this d and a Mitch type qb. 

[Hebert19]

I said at beginning of year he would go for a 2nd at deadline so this would not surprise me.

Ya, if he has a better option out there.

I think you make this move if it involves OL help.

 

Your choice is between is a stronger OL with Allen and a weak backup QB, or a questionable OL with Allen and Trubisky.  Even if Allen gets injured, in that later scenario, Mitch is stuck behind a couple turnstiles masquerading as guards.  I think our chances of advancing in the playoffs take a sharper dropoff with Trubisky/weak OL versus Webb/better OL.

[WideNine]

Mitch has not had to do a lot for Chicago and Nagy to look like a clown org this year.

 

Plenty of teams would be willing to kick the tires.... but really nice to have the Mitch security blanket - especially with Allen taking the hits he is on designed runs.

I'm fine with trading Trubisky, I honestly don't think he's all that good. Better than anyone else we have though. It's worth it if we can get Scherff!

Gotta disagree with you here.   If you spend a half a year in an offense, are already in the building and they want to pay you to be the starter I think you re-up immediately.   Good options usually already have starting Quarterbacks.

I definitely wouldn’t.  The Bills have a great chance to contend this season.  You only get so many chances and can’t expect to be in a better position next season.  Who knows what could happen.

 

A conditional 3rd round pick doesn’t help the team this season…it only hurts it

But if Josh has a stinger and is only out a few weeks we are not done- that’s the contingency I am referring to. It may jeopardize #1 seed but Mitch is talented enough to win. Can he pull a “Foles” and win it all? Who knows… I hope we never have to find out but i would rather have the best option available in an emergency.

 

if we can get an absolutely key piece that is lock down for a few years then we do what we have to, but Mitch gives us the best chance to win vs any other backup in the NFL

You don't trade Trubisky for anything other than an impact player this year or a 1st or 2nd rounder.  Period.
