Do we really need a veteran QB?
#10
I think the term "mentor" is far over rated. It's not as if Burrow or any QB has little to no knowledge of how to play the position. I wish someone could come up with a definitive answer to exactly what this "mentor" is supposed to do. I think the only requirement is having a viable backup in case of injury. Burrow or any other rookie starter either gets "it" or they don't. With several former QB's on the coaching staff alone I don't really see the need for a backup "mentor".. On the other hand we can toss this mythical mentor word around all day and pretend he'll be some kind of sage advisor with knowledge nobody else could ever possibly impart to Joe.. I get it..mentor sounds like a great idea, but in reality it's just another term we toss around to make it appear they have all the answers nobody else is even remotely capable of having.
