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

[2020 Our Year For Sure]

We could probably trade a 5th or 6th in another trade and pick up a passable backup QB somewhere

Super Bowl or bust. It’s go time. Go get Scherff and Fuller.

We send them Mitch. They take on all of Brandon Scherffs contract and we have an all pro guard.  Make it so. 

 

This would (nervously) work for me.  They don't even have to take on all of Brandon Scherff's $18M contract, just $4M or so

Trade trubisky, would the bills sign cam Newton?

If the guy who coached him in the Super Bowl doesnt want him, I would assume its pretty well over for ole Cam.

Why on gods green earth would they sign Cam?

I agree but id rather go with cam over Webb/fromm/Barkley. I don't believe any of those guys could win a playoff game

 

If trubisky is traded, I hope we have a new back up ready to go

He's on a one year deal and he's not seeing the field unless something bad happens.  I say trade him for any mid-round pick you can get.  The biggest issue is if Josh gets concussed or something in a playoff game, but I think you take that risk.  If Mitch were on a 3 year deal, this would be a different conversation.

But I’m pretty sure we get a decent comp pick if Mitch signs a nice deal somewhere

else after the season, so why trade him for a 3d or 4th round pick now?

Sure Mitch would have input on a trade.  I would guess New Orleans has more appeal then WFT.

If you have to look at it holistically.   Is Cam more naturally gifted than those guys, yes.   But his arm is gone, he doesnt know the system, and he has a box of rocks between his ears.   If Josh goes down its over regardless.   Better to let the guys who have spent time here play, than bring in a 6'6 distraction.

Trading him now would be to move out salary for another player coming in

But Trubisky’s salary is only $2 million this year…

Is that all they save on the cap by trading him? Thought he was like an 8-10 mil cap hit

Not my first choice either but if I had to pick a qb between Webb/fromm/newton to win a playoff game playing 3.5 quarters because your starting QB is out for the rest of the game, I don't have much faith in scoring any points with a webb or fromm led offense

Maybe we can get Fitz (and a 2nd) in return.

Once he recovery he can be te new back up QB.

 

Yikes.

You do know the Fitz cycle....that scares the crap out me we need JA17 healthy

I would prefer Heineken as part of the trade  

 

At least he doesn't have a curse attached to him

I'd rather have a rehabbing Fitz.  After watching Newton play us twice last season, he's done like dinner.
