With due respect, I think it is you that's missing the point.Kurt Warner was cut and out of the league playing arena football before he even went to NFL Europe. But yeah I’m sure he was showing his elite ability when he was CUT.
And again you are missing the point. Aikman was not performing at an elite level his first couple years in the league. He wasn’t. Period. Of course he had the potential and showed the ability. He was a first overall pick after all.
But again, we are talking overall performance. Overall performance. I don’t know how else to explain it to you.
All the QB's mentioned had legit reputations for being able to throw the ball. They could throw at an elite level right out of the gate. Of course they needed to acclimate to the pro game and most started out on bad teams.
It is possible to show elite level of play with poor results due to learning curve and circumstances.
