Not if you’re Aaron Rodgers. And yes, I know, there was Brett Favre. But if he’s not ready, you get a 1-2 year bridge vet and let the kid grow. If the kid isn’t NFL ready, but has the requisite tools to excel, you got to look at it that way. I would honestly prefer it, bc it would give us another year or two to build a better line and skill position weapons so when the kid comes in you aren’t putting as much pressure on him to do more with less.
