sample size is too small.  he was playing for a somewhat disfunctional Jacksonville team and still produced reasonably well.   remember his last year as starter he injured his hand, tried to play through it and ended up having to sit a bit to get healthy.

I think if I was the GM of a QB needy team and I didnt have a top draft pick to get one or the cash to sign a top guy..... I'd see if he is willing to accept a team friendly deal to start for me.

I think if I'm the Saints, or Tampa, I'd strongly consider an option like him.  They dont have high draft picks or cap space, so this is an option for them.

 

If your purpose is to tank, this would be sound strategy…

If Minshew is a starter he's a low end starter on a crap team, that's it. He's a RaRa cheerleader type, ala Baker Mayfield or Carr type but nowhere near as good as Carr. 

If we're being honest outside of a few good games he's got some really bad film

This is probably where hes at.

if the pieces in the offense are decent, he can probably produce decently.  but he maxes out as a mid range starter.

for now, i'd treat him as a bridge QB and see where that goes.   for me the best fit is Tampa.   They have cap problems, not a lot of draft capital so hed be a guy I would target if I'm the Tampa GM.

That team just needs to tough it out for a year or two.   they are upside down right now in terms of the talent funnel and they need to right the ship.   Fournette may be a buyout.  turns out he was playing with a lis franc injury much of the season (which explains his poor production).  Terrible injury for a RB.

I would rather have Wentz over Minshew, i thought Minshew was awful filling the in for Hurts.

yes, if Wentz has his head screwed on straight.

some rumours that he didnt have the dedication to his craft.   if thats where hes at, you dont want a guy like that even as a bridge QB.   That kind of attitude spreads like wildfire then nobody cares and the team tanks.

 

if he doesnt have his head screwed on straight hes a backup at best.

If he doesn’t retire I would rather have him over Minshew.

He's getting signed, they made room for it.
