instead of trying to compare his career to a specific player to determine his value, I’d say if hes a top 10 QB for majority of his career and can crack the top 5 for a couple of seasons in his prime, id be content.
mighty high bar. damn. a lot of #1 overall picks don't even get there
High bar but that’s the reality. If you aren’t scratching the surface of the top 10 your team is likely looking to replace you or shuffle you out for someone who has the potential to be that. Look up the top 10 list and check out the guys who fall outside of that list. If they have more than 4 years of experience we’ve likely heard those teams looking to move those players or they’ve been traded within the last two seasons already. At some point you better been recognized as a top 10 QB for multiple seasons to be considered a success. The bar is high but that’s why their contracts are high. And why damn near every new QB contract is setting the record for the “highest paid QB” until Mahomes came on the scene
carson palmer was never that, but that's why i brought up his name. he was pretty darn good for a long time. if you're not satisfied with that as a bears fan from a non-top draft pick...
