Step back for a moment and consider the scouting playbook on drafting QBs, e.g. the Bill Parcells rules for drafting a QB.
Jordan Love is a college graduate, a three year starter, has started 32 games and won 21 of them, has a 2:1 ratio of touchdowns to interceptions, and a career completion north of 60 percent. He's got a perfect, over-top, professional stroke. He's got ideal arm strength/arm talent. He's 6'4" & 225 lbs.
I realize full and well that the Bill Parcells rules were always more conceptual than an actual formula, and that many will argue them outdated, for good reason. The point I'm making is that the scouting community are still largely operating off the same handbook they were when Parcells developed those rules. When the evaluation gets kicked up to the General Manager/Executive level, that is when you see more innovation and outside-the-box thinking applied to the reports provided by the plug-n-play folks doing the standardized groundwork. But it won't be necessary for a GM to think outside the box with Jordan Love. He checks all the boxes already.
Jordan Love will be appreciated by the NFL more than the folks in the media and fan bases who saw him play one or two games in 2019, after having lost virtually every receiver, runner, blocker, and coach that helped him have a top notch 2018. Virtually. Every. One of them.
The gaps in Jordan Love's quarterback education showed up in 2019. That was the main takeaway. You saw stronger glimpses of what he doesn't know, and what he doesn't know that he doesn't know.
But this is a guy who has been through more personal and professional adversity than most, is an unquestioned leader on the team (whereas people validly question Justin Herbert in this regard), has every tool you could ask for, a fully professional stroke, has shown you that he can put together consistency in the right circumstances, and has exposure to NFL route concepts.
I would absolutely take Tua Tagovailoa above Jordan Love, even to the point of trading assets, for the luxury of sleeping warm and cozy at night, fearing injury a lot more than the inability to catch on. Injury fears are a fact of life in the NFL, ever-present. Jake Long was a guy that Jeff Ireland once said he drafted in part because, "you can't hurt him with an axe". His career fizzled quickly...because of injuries.
But if I can't make Tua happen, I would be lucky to take a shot on Jordan Love.
