That would definitely be ideal.
Same with the NFL now. You end up paying a 1st round drafted QB so much money, if the veteran he's supposed to be learning from and watching has the team at 1-3 after four weeks, HC's feel the immediate pressure to start the rookie next game.
Guys like Mahomes and Rodgers had it perfect for their situations. Guess like Alex Smith and Trevor Lawrence barely stand (stood) a chance.
