I don't think anyone disagrees, but it's a win-now league. Even when teams have a plan to let the young guy sit, that usually goes out the window if they're losing. It supports the idea of drafting a guy 2 years before your franchise guy is set to retire, but most places don't think like GB.honestly, I think he went to a stable organizion and then got developed. Brady recently spoke out on it, and I think his logic on the whole thing makes sense. It's why I hoped we'd just be patient w/ Rattler and let him sit as long as possible. In a nutshell, QB's enter the NFL under developed, and then are forced to be starters, and then finally the team gives up on them if they don't win quickly enough.
Look at the Green Bay roster. Basically 3 QB’s since 1992ish…. How does that happen?honestly, I think he went to a stable organizion and then got developed.

Draft a QB 3-5 years prior to your Franchise guy getting old and Groom him. Saints had multiple opportunities to do this, but we went the "one player away" route for several years and because that one player away was never "backup or developmental QB" we didn't have a plan.
Invest premium assets in a premium position, allow some time for NFL-level skills to develop rather than put them in a position to develop bad habits (see Darnold, Sam in last night's game), and then reap the rewards.
