Found it pretty interesting. [ATTACH=full]4666[/ATTACH] This is a list of the top QB's post 2011 CBA, when practice times, and all that good stuff, changed for the worse. We all remember McCarthy ranting about it because it hurt his QB school so much. As we can see, it seems to have had a league wide effect. There simply aren't that many great QB's. Obviously Mahomes is elite. Russel Wilson is elite, but aging. Lamar Jackson is a blast, and good, but unsure how long he can keep his athleticism? Can he adapt? I mean, out of this group the 5th best QB is arguably Dak or Kirk Cousins. Not great. So we're coming off of a run, of arguably the most impressive QB play we've seen. Rodgers. Brady. The Manning's (yes, even Eli). Big Ben. Rivers. And I'm sure I'm missing some. My point, is that with this glut of elite QB's, the position has become even more important than ever. If you can find, and develop one, you have a huge advantage. Even with a high salary, it's a huge advantage. If Gute and Co truly thought Love could be one of those QB's, it is without a doubt worth the cost. Is it likely? No. But fortune favors the bold. TL;DR: The QB position is even more important than before with the majority of pre CBA QB's reaching retirement age.</blockquote>
