QB Crisis

J and I discussed this today, but I wanted to post.  All you hear on sports TV and radio is how few good QB's there are in the league, how many teams need a QB, you can't win without a great QB, etc.  But, the system is perpetuating the problem.  After 1 or 2 good college years, QB's are being drafted with high picks and being rushed onto the field without sufficient preparation.  Unlike a fews years back when the trend in college was pro-style offenses, now colleges run variations of the spread, which leaves the QB's groping when they reach the NFL.  And, because of the ridiculous salaries and bonuses, they must play right away to justify the money.  Teams keep drafting QB's, paying them huge sums, and giving up on them quickly in order to draft another.  The rookie wages must be adjusted so teams can draft and develop QB's.  The odds right now are stacked against these guys since they don't have time to learn the NFL before being thrown to the wolves.  In addition, the NFL really could use a development league again like Europe a few years ago.  Playing NFL QB is just too hard to expect them to just "get it" because they're making a lot of money.
