People and especially sports pundits are always too quick to anoint "the next big thing".
Remember how Tebow was Denver's next great QB? Paxton? Remember how the Browns would head back to the playoffs with Manziel (Mayfield)? Remember the contract HOU gave Osweiler?
It doesn't matter where some player go, they're just not NFL quality players. Now, with the current stock of NFL QBs, you could make the argument that even an avg QB can get paid superstar money. That's just how the league is right now. Teams are fielding a corps of avg receivers, a committee approach to the RB position but still only 1 QB. Identity wise, teams are mimicking the Patriot's approach to building a team. It's quantity over quality atm. Good luck to the Gurley's and Gordon's and even Elliot's (see Tony Pallard's stat line from yesterday) of the World.
