I understand that approach, and it's generally how I feel about QBs. But I think that approach makes the most sense for QB needy teams. When you don't have time to sit and develop a QB, you need to find a guy who can grow on the field. We're in a fortunate situation. We have a veteran, Super Bowl winning QB. We can take a shot on upside, if we want.
The Ravens did that with Lamar Jackson, and he's a NFL MVP. The Chiefs did it with Patrick Mahomes, and he's a NFL MVP and Super Bowl champion. The Packers did it with Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers, and it worked well for them. Hell, the Bills did it with Josh Allen, and he's the reigning MVP. I thought for sure Allen would bust.
Now, it's a risky decision. There are a lot more busts than Josh Allens or Lamar Jacksons. But we can afford to swing for the fences.
