Josh Freeman?

I'd like to have that developmental QB on this team and hope we draft one next year. Trestman can work his magic and we'll have Cutler's successor ready at some point.

I'd like to get an heir apparent as well. What I'd prefer to do is gauge how long Cutler wants to play and draft a prospect 2 years before his retirement. If you get that guy too soon they end up getting traded or leaves via free agency. That can be good and bad.

 

The good is you get a guy cheaply that may be ready to fill a void when needed. You may get a good trade value. You draft the next Tom Brady and upgrade through attrition.

 

The bad is that he leaves before you can use him. You trade him for less than you have in him. He becomes a star for another team. You use him and he shits down his leg, wasting two years of development.

Freeman would be Cutler's successor? When, 2019?

 

Guys, Cutler and Trestman like each other a lot. Trestman went to Cutler's wedding. Cutler has never talked this glowingly about a coach.

 

And face it, who else will be on the market this offseason? Do you want to draft a guy in the 20's and hope he can keep the team competitive in 2014 and on? Cutler's a very good QB and everyone is just realizing that now, unfortunately. He's never had this much around him since he made the Pro Bowl in Denver.

 

They're going to continue to evolve as an offense, and unless Cutler seriously injures himself/dies/throws 20 INT's the rest of the year, he'll be back for at least the next 3 years.

 

So no, bringing in a bad player and an even worse teammate to this organization is a bad idea. If they want to draft a QB in the 3rd or 4th round, perfect! Maybe they'll strike gold and draft a guy like Ryan Mallett, Matt Flynn, or Kirk Cousins, someone who can impress in limited action and be a guy who can net them a 1st or 2nd round pick some day,

How's that again?
