It’s such a crapshoot with most quarterbacks

Did anyone really know that CJ Stroud would be far better than Bryce Young?

There have been some can’t misses as first picks - the Manning brothers, John Elway, Andrew Luck, and I’d say Trevor Lawrence and Joe Burrow to name a few - but I agree, they are few, and Williams is not one of them. He could easily turn out to be Winston, or even worse, Tim Couch or Jamarcus Russell. But this year, he still might be the best option. I will be pleasantly surprised if he turns out to be great. But in reality I’m expecting him to be better than Fields, but that’s a low bar. I’m not optimistic. And it may well be the eventual star QB from this year will turn out to be Daniels, Maye or even Nix and not Williams.

Worst case scenario, I have visions of the Rashaan Salaam and Curtis Enis picks, and the ultimate immature quarterback bust, Cade McNown.
