You have basically every turd that starts around 16 games going to throw for 4000 plus yards....that's a problem.

But I agree with the second part of your statement; the rules have been favoring offense for nearly two decades now, which can only be beneficial to a young QB's growth. |

The fact is that very few QBs throw for 4,000 yards/season. Less than half will even approach 4,000 yds this season. Right now it looks like maybe 5-7 QBs will probably get in the neighborhood. Only 4 QBs are likely to throw for more than 4,000 yds as of today, according to ESPN's leader board, anyway. But Lamar Jackson is currently 27th among starting QBs in terms of total yardage, and averaging less than 190 yds/game passing, so yeah, he ain't gonna make it. Heck, he might not surpass 3,000 yds. |

NFL teams have also, finally, wised up to the fact that you don't need a prototypical NFL body to be a great NFL QB. It's not that long ago that Russel Wilson falls to the third round due to his size. It's not that much further back and guys like Wilson aren't given a chance whatsoever to play QB in the league, regardless of their talent. How many potentially great QBs were never given a shot at all?
The fact that Murray could go #1 overall shows how far the league has come in a relatively small (no pun intended) amount of time.

Hell, we're not that far removed from Grbac returning to start over a less-prototypical Gannon who had been moving the offense efficiently. Hell, Warren Moon couldn't hear his name called in a 12-round (or something like that) draft. It makes no sense whatsoever.

If NFL offenses back then were as flexible with college concepts as they are today, a lot of those high draft picks might have had more success. |

This isn't in the years following the invention of the forward pass. This isn't the 1960s when Joe Namath doing 2500 yards and a negative TD:INT ratio was viewed as not that bad of a season and actually pretty good. This is 2020. When dudes who play 16 games in a season if they're not piles of crap will usually throw for 4000 yards. The league MVP did not crack 4000 passing yards. Sure, he accounted for a lot of points and TDs. That's fine. But then don't come at me (not you, just random bozos who think Jackson is amazing) and try to claim that Jackson is an above average passer |

It was more than I realized before looking it up, but 11 last season and 12 the seasons before... about the top 3rd of teams, give or take a QB or two. |
