The gist is McGregor is (unsurprisingly) terrible, Gyllenhall can't carry the movie, the plot is unnecessarily complicated.

So, since a trade is unlikely, it appears the most likely scenario is that the Bears release Fields rather than pick up the option? And, then Fields goes elsewhere as a backup, at a much lower price?
