Yeah, their drafting has been iffy for awhile. Were able to cover it up with good trades/FA signings/Tom Brady. Not going to hop on the Fields hype train until I see it already with a head of steam. Who was the last OSU QB to actually be good in the NFL? Seems like every few years there's a new big name QB out of OSU who flops. Troy Smith, JT Barrett, Braxton Miller, Dwayne Haskins, Terrell Pryor, Cardale Jones.
The Pats finished 15th in total yards allowed, though, and only beat two teams all season that had a record above .500. I get your point about OSU QBs, but Alabama hasn't turned out ANY QBs that succeeded in the NFL since, who...Joe Namath? And of that list of QBs from Ohio State, I think only haskins went in the first round?
