Look at the difference between what people like AJ McCarron or Braxton Miller do in a specific system with elite talent vs what Burrow did. His ability to throw people open was amazing last year and all professionals (not named Fred) who watched probably every throw he has had said the same exact thing.
People still try to say Brady is a system QB with an average arm. What happened when he got an elite WR like Moss? Only put up record numbers and should have won the superbowl. If we're going to hold playing with elite players against people then literally no one from OSU, LSU, or Alabama should be top picks ever.
