Pick the outlier (different from the rest) in the string of numbers:

80.4
87.4
83.5
88.8
106.2
86.6
91.8

Only one of those numbers would fall more than 2 standard deviations outside of the bell curve.  

Agree that 2015 is an outlier.  But it destroys the argument that Dalton has a "low ceiling". 

Now look at Bortles career numbers

69.5
88.2
78.8
84.7

In half of his seasons Bortles posted a passer rating worse than Dalton's career low from his rookie year, and Bortles career high season is lower than almost half of Dalton's seasons (3 of 7).

So why is this even a discussion?
