But if the idea is to bring in more the mentor type role to help get AR back on track then I say you go w/ Mariota. Or just throwing this out there - bring Minshew back. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Vegas releases him, which would be a ~$6M cap savings, or willing to trade him for a low round draft pick which would be ~$9M savings.

I’m torn between legit competition and a mentor. How much would Fields need to outplay AR before you give him the starting job? If you think Fields is playing well enough to be the possible long term answer then that’s one thing. But if he’s just a little better than AR who do you start? May be hard to lure Fields here if it’s not a true competition. But if Fields comes in and just barely beats out AR, then Ballard and Stechein are likely done in Indy. AR too.
