He's definitely better than the back-up QBs we had but I'm not sure if this was the best use of cap space this year. I would've rather had Ertz. I wonder how people are going to feel when the cap details come out. I can't imagine he signed for less than Dalton or Tyrod. I'm guessing 1 yr 8-10mil? Although we've already established Beane is a Wizard... so I guess we'll see. No way they are paying him that much guaranteed. Probably 5ish with incentives Edit: Came in at 2.5......great deal Edited March 18, 2021 by BillsCuse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have expected Trubisky to land somewhere with a murky QB situation. Beane described it as a “reset” year and he’d get a big starter type contract next year. I guess nobody was even willing to give him that shot at a “maybe” situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmao Barkley was probably going to cost about the same fcol. Terrific piece of business under the whole set of circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its really a Catch-22, isn't it? There's just no good answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 We should have seen this coming. Trubisky went to the University of North CAROLINA Beane keeps the Carolina pipeline alive! 1 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 1 hour ago, Jauronimo said: Signing Mitchell Trubitzky after using a high draft pick on Jake Fromm is a clear sign that every one on the team has to earn their starting role every year, week, and day. This has serious shades of Rob Johnson and Doug Flutie. I think the locker room is strong at this point but I really hope this isn't the start of another QB controversy. Lets not forget, Trubixy was the SECOND OVERALL PICK in the draft not long ago. The guy was considered a serious talent. The NFL is a what have you done for me lately league. One or two bad games from Allen, or god forbid an injury, and I think its very realistic we could have a debate about the starting QB and a locker room divided. I hope I'm wrong fellas.... This might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever read on here. Ever 3 3 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a year with reduced cap space you have to make room sonewhere and backup QB would be my first choice to make that room. But we'll see what his cap hit looks like. Ok so now we know it's a $2.5 million salary I love this move. I thought for sure he would get closer to $10 million. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochesterLifer Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 There is also the potential for trading Mitch for a reasonably high draft pick to a QB needy team during the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Daboll is better in booth so Barkley can talk with Allen on sideline. Barkley a good guy but very limited.
