Lamar while good now will go by the way of Michael Vick, IMHO.

Don't spend the $ in FA on Lamar if he's available. We're going to see that come true for D Watson.

The 2023 draft is a QB draft to rival that of other all-time great QB drafts

If you have somebody who can truly spot quarterback Talent, and realize that they can develop them rather than trying to find a finished product, then you've got better odds at finding a starter after the first round. I think the key is finding the right quarterback for your system.

There have been plenty of quarterbacks that have moved to a new system and then flourished. Sometimes it's just seasoning and sometimes it's just the right program to elevate the quarterback. Much like we did with Drew Brees.

Well, Lamar went down with a knee injury today. It can happen to any QB, but is much more likely with the style of game he plays.
