Seems like a no brainer to me.
If Q played LT I may think differently. If Q played QB or EDGE or even WR OR CB, I would just pay him.
We have solid OL, solid depth and an all Pro RB. We will be just fine without paying Q 20 million to be a guard.

That may even give us just enough fire power to trade up in the next two drafts! Just because we can afford to pay Q what he is worth doesn't mean it is the best move for this franchise. Sorta like having to let Manning go. Makes sense for everyone involved. Besides, Q is starting to show a few signs of wear in tear.....while his value is at its highest, cash in...since we just pissed a few dollars down the drain with Wentz. We have a bandaid here and we should use it. just my two cents

Q is a damn good player and a respected leader in the locker room. You don’t just get rid of a guy like that for some college kid who may not even be any good. This isn’t Madden. These are real people we’re talking about. People who have relationships among themselves, who have built relationships. As far as I know, Q is one of the most respected guys on the team. You can’t just ship a guy like that out and not realize the effect it will have on the team.

It’s not as simple as you make it seem.
