Andy Dalton signs with Cowboys, Bears decline Mitchell Trubisky's 5th-year option (Football 5/4)

"Andy Dalton makes a lot of sense for the Cowboys" - John Breech on Thursday's episode. Well, Saturday night Dallas decided they agreed and signed the veteran quarterback to a one-year deal (4:35). The Pick Six Superfriends dissect Dalton's new home and how the move affects Dak Prescott, who is still without a long-term contract. The guys highlight the importance of backup QBs and toss out some mildly wild trade scenarios (20:30). Will Brinson, Ryan Wilson, John Breech and Sean Wagner-McGough briefly comment on the Patriots quarterback situation (28:30), before taking a look at the 5th-year option deadline. Mitch Trubisky (31:45) as well of 4 of the Top 5 picks from 2017 had their options declined. Why did that year have such a miss rate at the top? Can we really blame other teams for passing on Patrick Mahomes (44:45)?
