Are you worried about Fields succeeding elsewhere? (alien.top)

I was not at all worried about Mitch Trubisky playing well in Pittsburgh. But for some reason I kinda am worried about Fields going somewhere else and being like a top 10 QB in the league. Does anyone else feel this way? The guy has a crazy amount of talent and also is very mentally tough. IDK what is holding him back, it just doesn't seem to make sense.

How many QBs have failed all 3 years starting on the team that drafted them, then succeeded long term elsewhere? The only QB I can think of in the past 10+ years is Tannehill and he just got replaced, and of course he outplayed Feilds on his original team. Maybe Geno Smith, but he's just looking passable rather than good.

If he does become a franchise QB somewhere else, then it was the right move (because it never happens), and we accept that football is crazy.
