There's all this talk about other guys being the better OT because of recency bias and because these guys are paid to write/talk/debate football, not just be like "yup, he's the best" and then sit there in silence. That's why you see bad takes like Chris Simms for NBCS saying Zach Wilson is the #1 QB over Trevor Lawrence. They want to be noticed.
When you win an Outland Trophy, it becomes your position if you want it. You've made it your B.
100% more talented?? Or 10% or 20%. Twice as good?? You really are drinking the Kool-aid.
Too many to count of star college LT’s have come into the NFL at another position only to move over (of course, some never do) eventually. It’s not a slight.
Chris Simms isn’t about getting noticed or click baiting . He is opinionated as heck but he stands his ground even when he is wrong (Daniel Jones for one). But he is far more accurate about QB’s than just about anybody (Mahomes , Watson, Herbert). If he says Wilson is QB1 you would be foolish to discount that - even if you disagree.
The Outland Trophy?? Surely you jest (I know, don’t call me Shirley). That’s a popularity contest and has little semblance to the NFL. Remember Joshua Garnett, 2016 winner? Neither does anybody else. He was a draft bust. Or how about our own Andre Smith. LT for the Tide. He made his stay in Cincinnati at RT. How can this be? He made LT his B.
