90% of QB's drafted never become regular starters regardless of what round they are selected. Even a smaller percent of those will become elite. It may take several years worth of picks to find our next long time starter. I believe you, and many others, are too fixated on a single pick from next year. There is a far better chance that Olave and Penning will be contributing to the Saints success years into the future than any QB would be drafted with the traded 2023 pick. |
