I wish this debate wasn't so toxic with everyone taking a hard line stance. I'm kind of in the middle with a foot in both camps.

The way I see it, if you have the 1st or 2nd pick, you should take one of these qb's. You have the chance to reset with a rookie contract and an elite qb prospect with another top 6 pick & probably another 2nd from trading Fields to surround him with. Set him up w/ a really solid supporting cast from the start as opposed to the usual development in a shit situation. Our roster is really rounding into form and we have some promising young players.

I love Fields and I think you can win with him with the right team and offense. If the pick isnt a top 2 pick, im fine rolling it back with him. But he's been inconsistent and left you with questions and you cant pass up this opportunity without real conviction on the qb, which he hasnt given us. Not to mention you'd have to pay him big money soon and theres no way you can say right now that you would be comfortable giving him that money. You just can't let this opportunity pass with that uncertainty.

But you have to bring in a new coaching staff as well.
