In the end I still stand by my point Rosen had a historically bad season and I think he is Christian Ponder, we have seen more Christian Ponder type QB's as of late it seems than good ones. Not sure why it's such a far leap to think the guy could be a bust after 1. Again, everyone clings to Goff but that is the outlier in terms of horrific rookie years into capable starters, and even that many think may be  mirage. 

That's definitely fair. It really comes down to going with what you know vs what you don't know. Dalton will give you solid production, but very likely will never push that elite category. Rosen was (much) more highly touted than Dalton coming out of college, so the belief is that he has a better chance at being elite than Dalton did/does. But you're right, Rosen isn't there yet and may never get there.
