Why NFL teams are willing to pay their Franchise QB’s

Yep, and thats why guys like Dak are rare. Regardless, QB's dont win anything without quality teams around them.

Starting caliber QBs in this league are indeed rare.
So rare that many are gifted the position.
Its a desperate situation league wide, and always will be.

top 10 QB's are rare. If there was a redraft of all the players in the NFL, Dak would be a top 10 pick. The first 10 picks would all be QB's.

QB's dont take teams anywhere buddy. Another myth. Football is the ultimate team game. QB's play 1/3 of what gets put out there and then all they do is pass on offense. QB play is dependent on many different things.

And there is 10 other players on Offense. The five up front don’t block and the RB goes no where and the QB runs for his life. He throws it and a receiver has to catch it. He calls the play and says hike. Then uses his skills to hand it off or read the defense and find the open man and throw a accurate pass. Some are better than others. Looking at the qbs taken in front of Dak in the draft I wonder how many if they knew would have taken Dak instead. Or if the teams that these qbs are on now how many would take Dak over them today.
