Just curious with the Fields debate. Has there ever been a QB mid-way through their 3rd year or later with so much uncertainty develop into a reliable starting QB? Alex Smith comes to mind but obviously wasn’t good enough to keep his position.

Ryan Tannehill was a top 10 pick and turned his career around after a rough start.

His first 2 seasons had a 59.4% completion percentage, 3.4% TD rate, 2.7% INT rate, and a 79.1 QB rating.

The rest of his career has been 65.6% completion, 4.9% TD, 2.3% INT, and 94.8 QB rating.
