If Carolina and Atlanta take QBs, then they are likely offloading Bridgewater and Ryan (or, at least Atlanta is likely to get rid of Ryan). Who's to say Jacksonville doesn't make a play for Ryan, or New York?

Because they're both rebuilding so absolutely no reason for either to bring in a vet. I would unfortunately put Chicago above both of them if i was saying which of the 3 would sign a vet QB in the offseason.

You asked where in the history of the NFL has it happened so I answered and they made the right call. Franchises who follow this will be in a bettor position in the long run.
Miami is setting up to see if they should do it with Tua as well.

If that's the case: Sign Matty Ice and draft only OL.

Of course this is all fiction, the reality is no team is looking to lose on purpose. Of course you will see teams that are mathematically eliminated look to see what they got with some of the younger players. But this whole tanking thing is a fan created phenomena.

If Tua is available, I’ll give up 2022 1st rounder and go O-line in 2021 draft
Id rather have Wilson than Tua. Tua has durability concerns and hasn't really shown the arm strength to push the ball downfield. Id take a chance on him if he is the only option, but I definitely don't love tua

Yeah, I think he might suck. His ball has no velocity. I haven't been impressed with anything he's done so far in the NFL yet. We'll see how he develops.

The Dolphins situation reminds me of the Bears early on with Trubisky. They get a false sense of hope with their rookie QB, despite some signs that show the rookie QB may not be very good.

We really could've used an Atlanta win today.

Also, the Giants winning doesn't help our need to of the Redskins to win that division.

I don't see the point here on NYG and Wash.
