The 23 year old #1 overall pick needs time. Fantastic.
Rodgers was 25 when he started.

I don't love this either, but he just turned 23 two weeks ago, and Wentz was 23 as a rookie too. That has been ok for the Eagles.

As much as people like to over use that one example, I doubt one of the best in the game needed to wait.Rodgers was 25 when he started.

Gave it a D
I’m willing to give Mayfield a chance but it doesn’t change the fact that there’s so much that’s polarizing about the pick
It was definitely a smartest man in the room pick and you can see that by the reaction of the NFL. The one tweet where they quoted an AFC coach saying he’ll believe it when he sees it. Basically none of us thought this was a real possibility a week ago. Whether you liked the pick or not, I think everyone will agree it was surprising. And we don’t tend to have a great track record with guys who come in and try to be the smartest man in the room
On top of that this is the smallest QB drafted #1 overall ever, right? Ok Brees and Wilson, yeah, we get it. But those guys went way later in part because of that. Again, we did something that literally never happens.
And you guys can talk about fiery competitor and he is, but he’s also a cunt. A hard working cunt but a cunt nonetheless. The oldest QB amongst the guys in the top 10 and also the least mature one. And obviously we get that one. Again, QBs that are faces of franchises generally don’t act like Baker does. But why do things the way other teams do it
It seems like no matter what we always come away with the most polarizing QB. No matter who’s calling the shots. Weeden was by far the most polarizing in his draft, Manziel in his. Now Allen gives Baker a run for his money but Baker is also wildly polarizing
For once I’d just like a higher floor option
Like I’ve said time and time again though, I think Baker can be a top 10 QB, but I could also very easily see him busting right out of the league in 5 years. He is another high variance QB
I liked the Ward pick, but the QB decision is literally franchise altering whether it turns out right or wrong so it received the entirety of my grade.
Sometimes it turns out you actually are the smartest man in the room. I just don’t know why we always have to be the team to find out
