I am wondering what people think is the best way to fix the QB spot in 2020 so that we do not totally waste this defenses window.
*Trubisky must be kept because his money is guaranteed, so he will be on the team no matter what.
Option 1: The Veteran Starter
Sign Teddy Bridgewater 4 years 80 million/42 guaranteed [Foles Light]
Draft a QB in the 5th round
Bridgewater
Trubisky
5th Round Pick
You sign Bridgewater to start. He is smart, accurate and has spent 2 years with one of the best play callers in the league and a HOF QB. Trubisky can compete, but he is starting behind Bridgewater who can run an offense and compliment the defense.
Option 2: The Veteran Competition
Sign Marcus Mariota 2 years 36 million/18 guaranteed, really is a one year deal for 18 million but 2 years gives you some cap wiggle room and allows you to keep him if he takes off.
Draft a QB in round 5.
Mariota/Trubisky
5th round pick
This plan leaves the QB spot exposed and the Bears would need Mariota or Trubisky to be the guy. That is not as guaranteed for 2 guys who have been benched or could be benched this season.
Option 3: The High Draft Pick
Re-sign Chase Daniel
Draft a QB in round 2 or trade up a little to get to the end of round 1 for the option
Trubisky/2nd Round PIck
Daniel
This would be the cheapest financially and would allow more money to be saved for the defense. This would also put the rookie into a situation where they could not sit for very long if 10 continues to crap down his leg.
