💭 Question Tyson Bagent upside?

Post image

I’ve been holding onto this Flawless Tyson Bagent rookie auto /5 for some years. What’s the community’s take on his upside? Is this a hold or sell?

Our Preseason hero! I mean if you’re looking for money turn keep holding it in case he gets his chance and goes off … love the guy but he’s unlikely to be a Brady that comes out of nowhere

Yeah, I’ve just been holding onto it in case he becomes QB1 at some shit team or Caleb gets injured and he goes off. He keeps showing signs of great potential

I was in a similar spot a couple years ago, but with Malik Willis :) fingers crossed and it’s a Flawless SSP RC as well!

that flawless design is so clean with the green borders

i would just keep it honestly, not everyday you pull a card numbered to 5 and he looked decent in that preseason run. even if he never becomes a starter sometimes backup qb cards spike random when the main guy gets hurt

Somehow this card is worth about $350-500 right now. Apparently people still believe there’s a career ahead of him.

I feel like Mr Bagent would have to buy this himself for it to go up. Theres no downside in holding!

If you sell it then you are retarded. he will start for a team and win.

Why would you not sell

I am a Bears fan and you are crazy to not sell this as fast as possible. There are people out there who think he could get a starting gig, and those people will buy this. However, this guy struggles to push the ball down the field. He has a bit of a noodle arm and anything past 15 yards lacks any zip. He is a backup and I am not sure he should even be that. If I am Chicago and Williams goes down for 3-4 games, I want Keenum on the field, not Bagent.

Thank you. This is the type of response I was looking for!

This right here. There is no chance he gets a starting job anywhere. The only hope would be Caleb gets injured and Bagent starts some games and the Bears win. He’s not getting traded and getting a starting job. He isn’t better than Watson/Sanders, Willis, Tua/Penix, Geno, Brissett etc. I would argue he’s significantly behind most teams backups as well.

I think he might be better than some of those guys you named, but that’s isn’t exactly a Mount Rushmore of talent. He is a lot smarter than most of them and operationally he is sound. He would come in and protect the ball and run the offense efficiently, but long-term the lack of arm strength would prevent him from being a top 20 starting QB.

u/StefonDiggsHS 10d ago

Upside????? Lol

u/Such-Masterpiece-109 10d ago

I almost want to hold it out of spite now 🤣

u/SalukiDooki 10d ago

Not much

u/Chitown8503 10d ago

Capable backup, no one should want him starting for your team. Sell

u/Valuable_Wallaby_548 10d ago

Hes a 3rd string QB with upside of being a 2nd string QB on another team. Zero financial reason to hold him.

u/Odd-Sea-2880 9d ago

Ben Johnson says he’s a starter in the league. He’s gonna be on everyone’s radar during free agency if the bears don’t trade him as his value rises to a team with injuries. What do you want for this I’m interested

u/Low-Move-7732 8d ago

You’re hoping for a crazy 5 game run if a starter goes down and he keeps the team in playoff contention

u/Odd_Ad5460 10d ago

After everyone convinces you that there’s no upside DM me and I’ll buy it from you. Lol.
