Message: <blockquote data-quote="Deleted member 6794" data-source="post: 876497">The Bears made a terrible decision to select Trubisky in the first place. While quarterbacks only play on their rookie deals for a maximum of four years teams have the opportunity to spend the cap space on other positions to upgrade the roster over that period. Worked out pretty well for the Chiefs and Mahomes last season.It's true that there's a possibility the Packers struck gold by selecting Love. It's unlikely in my opinion though.The Packers would still have $20 million of cap space allocated to the quarterback position in 2022 by moving on from Rodgers and have Love starting. The fifth year option for quarterbacks selected outside of the top 10 was over $15 million this year, that would hardly qualify as a bargain to retain Love for that cap hit in 2024.It seems like Gutekunst is trying to do exactly that by selecting Love in this year's draft.Well, if that's true you agree it was a mistake to select a backup quarterback instead???I consider that quote to be completely off base.It's the way every other quarterback does things as well. Brady even mentioned it after signing with the Buccaneers.</blockquote>
