ZN, given the point you made about Air Raid system QBs being behind, what do you think led the Rams to select Goff instead of Carson Wentz? I've pondered this given Goff's development being behind Wentz's.
IMO? They were traditionally unafraid of that (which led to some misses). They didn't mind taking a guy with high end promise who needed to develop. I suppose that tendency was reinforced by Fisher's experience with McNair, who only started in 6 games total in his first 2 years.
When Fisher talked about why they took Goff over Wentz, he stressed Goff's combination of a quick release and accuracy.
Personally I don't mind that they took the greener guy.
