I'm not sure what sort of "QB in the 2nd round" glasses that you are wearing, but Jake Fromm is essentially Andy Dalton in both stature and game. I thought that the objective of having the top pick was to get the player who will transform your franchise the most? A DE won't win you titles, but a QB might.
Now slow down a second on that. Jake Fromm is a 3 year starter with 40 games under his belt (including as a true freshman) and boasts a 34-6 (85% winning) record in those games. Joe has 25 games under his belt and is 21-4 (84% winning) with his first start not coming until he was a red shirt JR. Also, Joe Burrow is throwing to two sure fire NFL WR's right now where as Fromm is breaking in new receivers this year for the first time in his career. The Jake Fromm is Dalton comparisons probably need to die, as the more I watch the less and less similar they are. With that said I think Fromm ends up in the 20's as an heir to one of the aging QB's hanging around. I could actually see him going to LAC and taking over immediately as I think they part ways with Rivers after the season.
Don't want to hijack whatever this is, but I am going to be battling back the Jake Fromm is Andy Dalton narrative for the next few months so figured I'd start now.
