This is Whaley management 101...
Don't pay the fair market value for a QB. Instead cut them loose without a viable backup plan, and waste a first round draft pick on the next EJ Manuel, pay him peanuts because he's a rookie, and pray he turns into a franchise quarterback. When he doesn't... hold an open tryout with a bunch of journeyman guys, get a viable starter out of them, then balk about he's not worth the money you ignorantly offered him in his new contract deal.
