Not 100% sure what would qualify as "developing into a starter".  

But out of the 8 teams in the division round of the playoffs, I count..5? that weren't starting day 1.  4 I think that weren't the starter year 1.

 

I mean guys who were drafted outside of the first round (weren’t expected to be good coming out) and developed into starters after being benched for a year or two.

Cousins and Aaron yes. Who else?

Just wondering what the odds are.

I mean even Rogers was drafted first round after it being a toss up pre draft whether it would be him or Alex Smith at number one overall. He sat only because of that Brett Favre guy.

I think his life is so dull that he says this stuff to have someone to talk to on Twitter.

 

For real though. Outside of back up QBs, when was the last time a QB “developed” into a starter?

Kirk Cousins?

      Panthers OLB Pat Jones II makes bold claim about team's defense

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.

      We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.

      I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
