Which teams outside of Brees/Brady/ Maybe Rodgers have good enough QB situations to pass on a guy like Mahomes?
The obvious answer is NONE. Further, a team with Brees/Brady STILL should be drafting talent like Mahomes aka "in your face" with their aging QBs.
Just stop it man...stop it!
Stop what?
You are essentially proving my point. The reason why teams pass on Mahomes/Watson is because they believe they have QBs on the roster that can be franchise QBs and rather utilize those assets elsewhere instead of continuing to improve most i portant position on the field.
In Miami’s case they felt Ryan Tannehill, heading into year 6, having accomplished nothing, coming off a major knee injury, was a better option than making a move for an attainable QB in the draft.
Its not an easy sell for an entrenched regime to invest in a QB but Miami, and other teams, should be more vigilant in improving that position, within reason, when they have the chance to.
Who cares if nobody knew how great those guys are/were gonna be, when you don’t have a definitive QB, and are heading into a 6th year with the same guy, eyes need to be open.
Same when you have a career backup in Fieldler an pass on Brees
Same when you literally have no QB and pass on Rodgers
Same when come off 1-15, no QB, pass on Ryan
Same when you stick with Tannehill for too long and miss out on attainable guys like Mahomes/Watson and even Allen/Rosen the following year
