Would trading Matt Moore and a 2018 3rd round pick to the Broncos for Paxton Lynch be a good move for both teams. Lynch recently lost his battle with Trevor Seimian for the Bronco's starting qb job, but he's still young. The Dolphins would get a young qb for Gase to groom behind Cutler this year and Tannehill next year. The Broncos would get a decent draft pick and a veteran to play behind their young starter. Seems like a win/win.

Wasn't a fan of Lynch in the draft, definitely am not a fan of him today. Would prefer to ride out this year and then draft a QB next year than trade for one.
 
I'm not saying Lynch is ready now, but he has more down the line potential than Cutler, Moore, Fales or Doughty. You're likely not going to get a qb in the 3rd round next year that isn't raw either. Maybe working with Gase would help Lynch take the next step in his growth.

So give up a 3rd to pay more for a backup QB. Shoot, why don't we throw in Landry and a 2nd and ask for Von Miller too.

How are you playing more for a backup, Lynch makes much less than Matt Moore?

I would just rather have a young qb grooming behind Cutler this year and Tannehill next year and in Denver's case I would rather have an experienced qb backing up my young starter.
 
I see where you're headed with this. It wouldn't make sense if Cutler got hurt early and we had to rely on the new kid.

After the season is over maybe, but we may need Moore this season.

You draft talent, you coach talent and you freaking keep the talent.

The Broncos are not as stupid as we are.

So you're saying he's a talent worth the Broncos to keep and continue to groom but at the same time you would rather have Tebow? Seems ton contradict or you really like Tebow.

From a Broncos' stance I thinking if you've selected Seimian two years in a row as you starter that it's time to commit to grooming him and you can't groom two you qb's at the same time. It makes sense for Denver to have veteran backing up Seimian and to me I would rather see if Gase could get anything out of Lynch than waste my time playing Moore, Fales or Doughty this year if Cutler goes down. I see a number of people disagree, but that's ok.
