They want a mobile QB and think that’s a sure fire thing you get with an early first round draft pick, like Johnny Manziel, Trey Lance, Justin Fields, Zach Wilson, Marcus Mariota, Robert Griffin III, etc
Sure, every once in a while you find a bust later in the first round like Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson or Patrick Mahomes, but mostly it’s guaranteed winners when you’re picking a QB in the Top 5.
There are at least two players and some would say four in this upcoming draft that are better prospects than everyone in your first list.
Everyone acts like every draft class is equal and it’s not true. For example, this last QB class was weak and everyone knew it. Bryce Young had huge red flags but went first because virtually every QB did.
Acting like there was the same probability of Young and Manning being stars because they both went first overall is dumb. You have to do the actual scouting.
