....a ton of younger QB's are struggling.
Jared Goff
Carson Wentz
Marcus Mariota
Jameis Winston
Daniel Jones
Mitchell Trubisky
Also, guys who really have not been highly touted (the CIN, DEN, CAR, DET back-ups/young guys)
Also, guys like Kyler Murray and Sam Darnold have been up a bit after struggling.
The difference is only Wentz and Goff have been paid second contracts...
I made this argument several years ago and not in relation to Goff because at the time I felt he would be elite.
The argument is this: average QBs - on the level of say Derick Carr - should not be paid large 2nd contracts. Their cap killers, not because of the amount of the contract but because the QB is not good enough to produce a consistently playoff / SB caliber winning offense.
I'm very skeptical that any of the players on your list are deserving of 2nd contracts including the two who have already gotten them.
