I would say the
Chiefs being willing to draft a QB in round 1 is some evidence that they might not want to pay Alex. And given what QBs have gone for recently ($100M+ contracts with $55M+ guaranteed), I'd say that's more evidence. Sure, they'll give him a raise, but not what the recent market for starting QBs has indicated.
Cool. Another scout has him rated as a 1st rounder and there are reports all over the place about him getting drafted in round 1.
The media sucks when it comes to QBs. They called Brian Brohm better than Aaron Rodgers after Rodgers got drafted. They pushed Gabbert down everyone's throats. They said Nassib would go in the 1st round. E.J. Manuel was rarely talked about until a week before the draft last year. Brady Quinn was invited to the green room b/c of media hype. Colt McCoy. Tim Tebow. I'll keep going...
