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.

Yes. It's pretty common to allow QBs to develop and not expect them to play at an All-Pro level their first few years. If it happens (like in CJ Stroud's case), great. But expecting a QB to come into the NFL and immediately light it up is a recipe for disappointment.

Or Justin Hebert or Andrew Luck
