Trey starts 2.5 games do you take the over or under?

Under, I'm banking on Brock staying healthy.

i just can't tell myself "the starter will get hurt". This ridiculous injury thing will eventually stop. I don't think people realize how unlucky we are with qb health the last 6 years. It's historic lol

teams lose a qb for a few games or so, but rarely do you lose your shatter for 5/6 years. Lol its like unheard of

Under. I think Brock makes it back in time for week 1. Lance starts week 1 at most. I think Brock heals fast since he got over his busted ribs fairly quickly.

I wonder if this is record territory for top 3 overall picks and fewest starts / games played.

I think his career would have to be over before declaring anything like that.

Today I learned about Jay Berwanger. A RB drafted by the Eagles number 1 overall. He never played a single game in the NFL. Can't get bustier than that so let's eliminate Lance from the title of the BOAT (Bustiest Of All Time).

Any talk of Lance being a bust at this point in his career is beyond ridiculous. At this point last year there was talk about his potential to win league MVP and the only thing that changed was Purdy's phenomenal play. Had Trey played enough to show that he likely won't work out it would be one thing, but to call him a bust just because Purdy lit it up is perplexing.

Who called him a bust?

Please

No one called him a bust. It's just that Faithful6's question about "is this a record for fewest games played ever for a top3 pick?" inferred bust. He could have very simply looked it up, but instead he asked what he asked. I'm the one that brought up the word bust.

We are talking volume of starts to begin his career. THL was thinking 1 start in 2023. My reply was that's not a lot of starts, that's 5 starts in 3 years. Has that been done before, as a top 3 pick QB? I would like to know.

It's been inferred plenty in here, whether directly stated or not. I'm not the "dig through posts for dirt" guy, but my post was in direct response to 6's post.

No I wasn't. I was answering your question, "I wonder if this is record territory for top 3 overall picks and fewest starts / games played."
The answer is, 'no', it is not a record for fewest games played for top 3 over all picks. A quick google search would have provided you the answer.

Ah yes the Berwanger of 1936, if you gotta go pre WWII to find a guy, that may constitute being in the territory or ballpark, tho what do i know
I'd probably say TL gives us more than 2 games this year, which would be a career high

Not top 3, but Art Schlichter was drafted #4 overall by the Colts in 1982. Had 6 starts in 4 years, 5 starts in 3 years; then out of the league.

Most likely record territory for top 3 overall in which two additional 1st and 3rd were used.

You may well be correct. It's just a weird situation.

What's weird about it is believing the kid will never start another game in the league for any team and then trying to make up a statistic about it. That's weird.

I could be wrong, but I though he meant for the team that drafted him.

Are you not reading the posts

I'm on record he starts a career high number of games this season.

How many times does it have to be clarified that he was asking about number of starts after 3 seasons (this will be Trey's 3rd)? How about this - can you find any player of any position taken in the top 5 who has started less than 4 games after their first 2 seasons? Other than Jay Berwanger lol.

No you can't. Because it isn't a stat. Especially since his starts this year, which is still completely hypothetical, are being counted into this imaginary stat. Like saying Garoppolo had a shorter Subway career than any other athlete they hired. Funny as hell, but not an actual stat.
