This goes for the two first games.
Unless you are Lamar, Burrow, Allen, Mahomes type of player. These really big, guaranteed qb contracts don’t make sense.
It’s not so big differences between the next few tiers of QBs over time. Just like it is with receivers, pass rushers, cornerbacks etc.
Instead they should pay the 2-3 best RBs, rushers etc. since they are even bigger difference makers. We don’t like to lend them the same supports we give to QBs in terms of how good coaching and O-Line is. For a QB we’ll say “not even Mahomes would excel in this team”. But for a RB we would never say that, but look at Giants now. Can’t rush in designed plays for shyt. Whereas Barkley is flying.
