I like Pederson. I really hope he ends up being like Andy Reid or Mike Tomlin for us and this team is primed to be in the play-off hunt yearly from here on out.

His overall approach and philosophy to the game on offense seems to also be very QB friendly, and, to an extent? Salary Cap friendly. He seems to spread the football around evenly between the RB, WR and TE position.

He'll favor the TE position in most scenarios because that's the benefit of a good RPO system with a RB by committee approach. This will potentially favor the team in the long run decision making wise in the personnel department. You'll be able to lock down Lawrence and then just sprinkle in a free agent or two here and there or draft the right player at the right time to give you a solid three year window.

You don't have to worry about shelling out DeAndre Hopkins money at WR, George Kittle money at TE or Derrick Henry money at RB because his offense calls for a good balance across the board. I actually like this approach. When you start to favor one player offensively and you end up losing said player? It shows on the football field because your fundamentals and philosophy begins to falter heavily.

Hopkins missing in that play-off game exposed Murray heavily. Henry missing most of the year and playing in that play-off game against the Bengals showed he had a lot of rust to shake off still and it exposed Tannehill. I think Pederson will ultimately overcome Baalke.
