The one thing I've learned about watching the NFL the past 40 years... it's a crap shoot... take for instance Brett favre... how many crappie seasons did he have before he got traded... he just happened to go to Green Bay... actually he didn't do too well at first... now take minshew it could be the same situation... maybe we needed to build around him and our management failed to do that.... who's to say that minshew doesn't go to a new team and gets put in the right fit and management.... turns out to be an elite quarterback like Brett favre... it's crap shoot dude... and that's just one example over the past hundred years of the NFL

I will answer your Brett Favre question:  ZERO.  He had zero crappie seasons before he got traded.  He threw a grand total of 4 passes in Atlanta as a rookie, was traded, and starting winning IMMEDIATELY with a Green Bay team who went 4-12 the year before.  He was young and making mistakes, not playing his best football, but still WINNING. You are actually comparing Minshew to Brett Favre?  Dude.... wow.
