People were scared of drafting him for the same reasons you are, but I think they took it a little too far letting him drop like that.

It's been making more a difference the past few years, as a few teams have gone to offenses that consistently throw the ball 40-45 times a game. For those QBs, you're looking at an extra 2-3 points per game, which has been the margin of victory many, many times each year in our league.

But maybe the league isn't quite as QB heavy as I've though, given that standard scoring is 25 yards. I thought it was 40, for some reason.
