Guys like Mahomes, Brees, Brady are simply exceptions to all rules.
It’s insane and dumb to compare any rookie to those guys by finding some random similarity. Mahomes’s college system didn’t end up mattering. Brees’s height/tools didn’t end up mattering. Brady’s draft slot didn’t end up mattering.
But guess what. For most guys, all those things do matter. The great all time QBs are a very very select group.
It’s always more likely that a rookie will be a bust than an all time great. The comparisons to any great are always stupid.
