Not saying we should draft a DT when we already have two good players on big money deals, but I'm not gonna question Peters. You draft the guy you think has the best chance to succeed in the NFL, not the position you need the most. Look at the 2021 qb class - that class has mostly turned out to be ass and even Trevor Lawrence isn't a stud and he's the only one left with his original team.
You learn by playing. Never bought into the sit and learn stuff. Kirk is on borrowed time.

Two recent examples of sitting and learning panning out: Patrick Mahomes and Jordan Love.

Both likely would have been just fine if they played right away, especially PM

That argument is all hearsay because it's not solvable. Playing the what if game doesn't help.

You don't know that though. That's the entire point. THey were successful after sitting. Most of the QBs successful sat first for the most part. Either that or the ones that "succeed" are done once their running ability wanes around 31 years of age.

For us in the Snyder era, whether you played right away (Forbes) or didn’t play right away (Howell) made no difference in the end due to lousy team management and coaching
