It's not worth it to me, I'd rather have him scramble and make plays but not tuck and run as much as he did this year.

I'm highly optimistic RG can be an elite passer (similar to Rogers), but it's going to take a Vulcan mind-meld between he and the Shanahans. RG was/is still most comfortable when he can keep the defense on its heels with his own running. And Kyle's ability to build a successful offense without RG's legs is still in question IMO. The one game last season where we didn't rely on QB keeps AND still had success was Cousins in Cleveland, and I'm convinced that was Mike's old playbook from Elway/Denver if not Mike actually setting up the play-calls.
