Fact is, Sage only has one year left on his contract, so if you can get a draft pick for him, you take a draft pick for him. You could replace him with Nall or a veteran like Losman or Boller. But, it's just not economical to hang onto a back-up just in case your starter gets hurt.
It's plenty economical if he's not getting paid much.

If we got offered the 3rd rounder we turned down last year, I'd do it since he is in the last year of his contract. I doubt it happens, but that is what it would take for me to agree to getting worse next year.
