I missed this earlier.
We have a pretty good idea of how he'll perform with a better setup, because he had it last year - it's likely his peak, statistically.
Solid stats on the surface, that when analyzed further, see that he can't complete passes over 10 yards regularly, even when given the benefit of the best deep threat in the game, and the best possession WR in the game. His entire game revolves on dumping the ball off, and hoping the WR/RB can break it.
And regarding leadership, I disagree. That stunt he pulled with Albert wasn't something a leader does on the field.
