You'd think that Bomber fans would be the last people this needs to be explained to....
No kidding. Joey Elliot, Alex Brink, Max Hall....that's just the last few years and I'm probably forgetting a couple. All very effective arguments against rushing a QB into playing time.
Max Hall would be an example of the problem with signing an "older" QB... Max was already 28 (maybe 27?) when he got here so his window of peak time was closing.... ideally you want to sign a developmental QB at 25 or younger...
Max Hall simply had no arm , nothing to do with peak times.
