No. Tedford's offense is very complex and Glennon is pretty smart and is likely to grasp it pretty fast. Whether you keep Glennon as your 1st option or draft another quarterback you need to make sure that you have at least someone you can figure out the offense. Glennon has enough good things that I like that I wouldn't trade him for ALMOST any draft choice this year.
Why would the Patriots get rid of Mallett? He has been learning from arguably the best QB in the game for years now and he's cheap... with Brady getting older, why would they move him????
As someone said earlier no one is untradeable. The Patriots have tried to move him the past 2 drafts. Mallett rookie contract is up after this season and Brady isn't retiring anytime soon. This is prime time to move him if they are going to. Also Houston is reportedly interested in Trading for him. http://www.sportsworldreport.com/articles/26084/20140102/houston-texans-rumors-ryan-mallett-trade-target-bill-obrien-named-head-coach-cleveland-browns-patriots-qb-josh-mcdaniels-hired.htm
Teams do not trade away their starting QBs.Right now, Glennon is the 2014 starter, he is a NFL QB, something the 2014 draft picks still have to prove.Pass happy league, QB being the most important position in football etc...and we are trying to gamble at QB, dealing our starter?
We are gambling on Glennon also. There is no harm in bringing in a little competition IMO. If Glennon develops into the next Steve Young, Great. He he doesn't the Bucs need a fallback.
Only if we're trading up for Teddy.
Probably not.Nothing wrong with having a quality backup. Not like he is being paid that much.

So trading Glennon brings competition? Glennon gone, no other QB on the roster, just draft picks, and you call this competition or plan B?
I think Glennon can be a qb who can win big games. He's not going to be the reason a team wins big games but can contribute to it. I wouldn't be opposed to getting a qb round one or any time to compete with Glennon but I think Glennon can win at this level. We just need to block better and need some more speed on offense at WR and for guys to hold onto the ball.
