Why not pick up Fields 5th year and draft a QB first also? (alien.top)

is it not possible to pick up Fields fifth year option to keep them around for another year, while you draft the top QB prospect? You could then trade whichever one doesn’t work out. sounds crazy but crazier things have been done. Any thoughts?

What are you hoping for? That Fields becomes your #1 and the guy you drafted becomes your #1 also? You would have to trade Fields in order to recoup your draft capital because the other QB hasn't proved that he can play in the NFL.

you could trade whichever one doesn’t workout. a contingency plan if you will

I agree. There's a vast need for QBs in the league. It's the most valuable asset in all of sports.
