I'm done with inaccurate QBs. Yates, Mallett, Osweiler,... all have tools but scattershot. This offense, like just about all NFL offenses these days, benefit from the more accurate passers even if that means not taking the guy who fits the prototype. As said in Moneyball, we're not selling jeans here.

Pocket poise and decision making.

We've had this same thread for like 4 years going now. It's depressing.

This post (from 3 yrs ago!) was from a video of O'Brien even before he was the HC about what he looks for in a QB. Accuracy tops the list, yet O'Brien (and Rick Smith) haven't brought in QBs matching this profile to date.

Quote:
1. They have to be able to throw the ball accurately. They don't have to be the greatest athletes in the world.
2. They have to be able to make good decisions. You can judge that off the field.
3. They have to be intelligent, with a great football IQ.
