Don't get me wrong, I hope Robert can stay healthy; but the odds are against him simply due to his style of play and competitiveness. Hopefully this year he is able to find a way to make it through the season healthy and on the field - having lots of weapons to give the ball to will help.

and how many of the games where he started did he provide great quality play that another backup QB couldn't have? he wasn't awful, and he still has potential, but he didn't light things up either.

so far he's been pretty much the definition of an average backup QB. I have no issue keeping him, but I also don't have any issue taking a 2nd or 3rd round pick for him either. and honestly, the more he plays, the more likely his trade stock drops.
