W/Wentz, you still aren't getting the point. Did they let him walk? Or was he traded?

That is what Caleb's dad & I are talking about. The player is under a 7 year contract @ the behest of the franchise no matter what w/o having a say on where he goes. He is drafted by Chicago. No choice. Given a 4 year contract. No choice. Can have a 5th year added @ the Bears discretion. No choice. Given a franchise tender. No choice. Given a 2nd franchise tender. NO CHOICE. He is almost 30 before he gets a chance to dictate his future. While at the mercy of a franchise that has proven for 105 years they cannot produce a top notch passing game.

I repeat. Your denials mean nothing to me. No NFL team lets a starting franchise QB walk on their own.
