Actually that's not true. I was at the New England v Ram game in Anaheim when Robinson inserted Everett in the middle of the game for his first game. And he was lights out. From that moment he was the starter and played really well for years up to near the end of his Ram career. His favorite target was Henry Ellerd who said Everett could throw the deep sideline out better than any qb alive.
He didn't come from a college Air Raid system though.
No matter what anyone says, that is a HUGE factor. You're not going to get a rookie starter in the mold of Everett from a guy like that.
