Trent Dilfer had one great year, three winning years out of 13. Those winning years he was carried by his defense. His career 113 TD to 129 INT ratio doesn't scream good QB.Doug Williams, Steve Young and Trent Dilfer.
Who are those guys?
Those guys were all first round picks of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.. and they all went on to win the Super Bowl with other teams. One of them is even in the Hall of Fame. People really need to get over this notion that players can't get better or just play better in a different system and a different situation. Lance may continue to suck rocks in the NFL.. but this is far from a given at this point. The move gives the Cowboys a developmental QB that they have been searching for since like 2018. If they drafted the same guy with that 4th round pick next year nobody would bat an eye. This way the Cowboys get a full season and offseason with the kid before he ever sees the field. That 4th round rookie next year would have had what 12-15 practices before training camp where he would get table scraps behind the vets?
Doug Williams has a career comp% of around 50% and a losing record as a starting QB. He pulled a Nick Foles and had the game of his life in the Super Bowl.
Steve Young was the fall guy for a very, very bad Tampa Bay team. They screwed up.
Tampa Bay was hoping for a lot more than what they got with Dilfer and Williams. They didn't realize what they had in Young, but given how bad that team was, it was probably hard to see.
