The pricetag is unavoidable.  So, I wouldn't assume because of the money they'd have interest in him for a long term solution.

 

I'd think they'd probably use him a year while they continue to develop Mettenberger.

 

It's just that QBs like him (no matter how you feel about him) usually still don't become available.  He fits their system.

 

In their favor, the pricetag may also limit competition for him.
