5 quarterbacks the Chicago Bears could get during the offseason

3. Josh Rosen

Rosen is almost sure to be one-and-done in Miami, and on his way to a third team in as many NFL seasons in 2020. It’s not entirely fair to him as an assessment of his ability two years in, as he was drafted into a bad situation in Arizona, bumped by Kyler Murray when the Cardinals earned the No. 1 pick and dealt him into the not-so-veiled tanking that’s going on in Miami.

Not beating out Ryan Fitzpatrick for the starting job during the preseaon, then being supplanted by him again as Dolphins’ head coach Brian Flores plays a game of quarterback musical chairs, is also not a great look for Rosen. But if he was in a better situation, perhaps he could get on a better path and succeed as an NFL quarterback.

Obviously still on his rookie contract for two more years, with a fifth-year option in play too, Rosen’s total cap hit for 2020 and 2021 is around $5 million. That makes him a nice trade chip for the Dolphins, assuming they decide they have no place for him in their future, based on low cost and any lingering potential he carries.

If the Bears add someone to legitimately compete with Trubisky, or perhaps outright replace him if that’s the path they take, young and cheap would seem to be two easy considerations. Rosen fits both criteria, and he’ll be available to all trade bidders unless something surprising happens.
