Talent or performance? Potentially two very different things. Either way your list looks pretty close imo. If you mean performance I’d drop Lawrence down a bit for sure.
Excellent list.AFC only
1 Mahomes
2 Burrow
3 Allen
4 Stroud
5 Lamar
6 Tua
7 Lawrence
8 Herbert
9 Rogers
10 Russ
He throws really hard tight spirals just out of reach of his wide open receivers.In what areas is Herbert better than Tua?
His hair?
What people really mean by talent is usually arm strength and size... Unironically, overrating those 2 aspects is very much at the top of the list of things responsible for 90% of early QB picks bust rate.Lawrence and Herbert have got to be the most overrated QBs ever. They constantly get excused from not meeting the hype while Tua still gets bashed for exceeding expectations. I'm still in between on Tua leaning towards off the bandwagon, but i gotta call it like I see it.
This is true, I agree, but Garrapolo really was not as consistent or good as Purdy has proven to be.While I agree Purdy has been a very effective QB with the 49ers. It should be noted that Garrapolo was a very effective QB when healthy when he was the 49ers starting QB. Yet no one confuses him with being a top tier QB in the NFL.
Purdy was very fortunate to be drafted by the 49ers and not by a team that was not filled with all the talent on the 49ers roster. I believe he is a very good QB in the 49ers offensive system but I have my doubts he would be as effective with a team that wasn’t as loaded on offense as the 49ers are.
Both are tall, have magnificent long flowing hair and sculpted butts. Their win/loss record mightn't be great but that is a grossly overrated misunderstood metric in today's NFL analytics. Tua may have a better win/loss record and statistically be a more accurate passer but hey, Herbert and Lawrence beat him in the key marketing metrics of towering height, flowing hair and sculpted butt.Lawrence and Herbert have got to be the most overrated QBs ever.
