Possible back up QBs...

now we're arguing severity of "rawness"? How many "pro-ready" high draft picks bust? Most of them. It's a crap shoot either way. Nothing wrong with taking the gamble with a 3rd rounder instead of the 1st, even if statistically it's worse odds.

 

I do to think anyone was suggesting that drafting Willis was a bad move, it’s the calming of the hype train he’s got going so early on without doing anything to justify a hype train. If anything, hes played well enough the train should be slowing down.

 

It is a crap shoot either way lol

At best 40% of first round QBs are successful. Number declines significantly in subsequent rounds.

 

By your criteria, Aaron Rogers would have been cut instead of being a backup. Same for Mahomes. Neither were starters and neither were vets. No place for them on your team?

 

Both Rodgers and Mahomes were first round picks. Neither were "project QBs".

 

So you keep them as a third string qb?

 

second string until ready

 

But second string should only be reserved for a vet… per OP.

or is he just saying he would have started them and not given them the year or so to learn?

 

We change game plan to match Willi’s strengths if we have to rely on him. We’re going to run primarily with RT anyway.

 

As long as he isn’t playing pitch and catch with the other team.
