It's either  those two or they get the Fantastic Four for free.

Look they want the Inhumans to be an awnser to the X-MEN so they are going to but the X-MEN on the back burner to engrain the Inhumans in kids heads, they want to expose them to the Inhumans so much and bury the X-MEN Fox becomes irrelevant, they don't want to create competition for themselves in exchange for a damaged brand when they have all  the leverage to grab Fox by the balls, and say you work for me now like Sony in the Spider-Man deal where Sony has the rights, but  they are sharing them with Marvel allowing Marvel to be able to use him in any Marvel movie, and from now on all of Sony's Spider-Man movies have to take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I don't think Marvel will let the X-Men TV show happen at all, unless they decided to make it themselves (within the MCU). However, Marvel is concentrating more on the Inhumans, so I find that very unlikely. Plus, Marvel's main motivation fro greenlighting a Fox X-Men TV show would be to get the F4 rights. However, after the colossal flop of the most recent F4 reboot, I think Marvel will be content with waiting 7 or so years and letting the rights relapse, as there's no way Fox will tr to make another F4 movie. Kevin Feige confirmed that they are not trying to replace the X-Men with the Inhumans in the MCU, not to mention if they wait for the rights to elapse Silver Surfer and Galactus would not be able to appear in Infinity Wars or Guardians. I know Marvel isn't going to replace the X-MEN with Inhumans I'm just saying they are going to use them to fulfill the role the X-MEN have left just like Tony is in the role of Hank Pyrm when it comes to creating Ultron.

Look I want Galactus and Silver Surfer in the MCU as much as the next guy but you gotta look at it like this.

Is two characters worth using in one of the biggest MCU movie events in history but at the price of one of your biggest franchises which as of right now Marvel has a chance to get the X-MEN in the MCU through the TV Series, or would it be better for Marvel to get the rights back in 7 years and use Galactus and Silver Surfer in Guardians 3 leading up to  Avengers 5, what I'm saying is that there are more pros than cons for trading the X-MEN TV rights for the fantastic four.

Pro for the trade: You get the Fantastic Four faster, you can use them in Infinity War Part 2

Cons: They lost all hope of ever getting the X-MEN in the MCU, The Fantastic Four is a dying franchise, there is no guarntee you will use these characters immediately, or need to use them immediately.

I think Silver Surfer and Galactus should be saved for when Thanos gets the heart of the universe, or have Silver Surfer, and Galactus be the Thanos type Character and use him for Guardians of the Galaxy 3, and Silver Surfer should be an enemy first for the Guardians then a friend, then have Galactus be the final boss like Thanos is the final boss for Avengers 3 have Galactus be in Avengers 4, in that Marvel gets to keep the rights to an X-MEN TV Series, and Fox will be continuously asking them until they cave and say ok the X-MEN TV Series and any future X-MEN movies will from now on be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe a mutually beneficial deal where Marvel to use Fox characters, and Fox can use Marvel characters like Iron Man, Captain America, maybe Spider-Man
