I wish Ross was either a better quarterback evaluator or an owner who opened his mouth less. But what are you gonna do?
I agree up to a point. If your QB is a Dak, Tannehill, Jimmy G, Cousins type you're definitely better off replacing them rather than spend the $30-40 mil/yr.
If your QB is a truly elite guy like a Rodgers, Mahomes, Brady, or Mannning, you gladly pay them because they're easily worth it.
Yeah, I listed to it a few times, to see if that's what he said, but it's clear he meant one or the other, and not both. Obviously, many of these people will choose to hear it the other way.That's what I heard too, I'm thinking he misspoke on one end ...maybe meant to say "I wish I was a better Quarterback, maybe I'd be playing today" because the question was about more jewish players in the NFL
Right... but if you are constantly developing you aren’t forced to overpay a Tannehill or Dak!
I really think the smart will start doing this... which really is the Ron Wolfe philosophy he used very well!
One more qualification . . . warning: I'm going to beat a dead horse. There are not enough 'average' QBs for 32 teams. More like 25. Someone HAS to and WILL overpay for 'average.' I agree with your point, but "developing" doesn't mean the guy being devloped is going to be average, or even a starter. And, often, that won't be known til he IS a starter.

I watched Wolfe today say how he whiffed on Marino but yes that guy was one Hell of an evaluator.Go back and look at the QB’s Ron Wolfe drafted, developed and traded for great value!
"I wish he was a better QB. Maybe I'd be playing today."
What does that mean?
It's an interview before the superbowl and before one of the questions was "why aren't you in the superbowl?"
