What's the foundation for choosing those three players? Number one overall picks?
Peyton Manning was drafted 20 years ago — is that example really that informative? Even then,
Peyton Manning had a rookie DVOA of 7.7%. Those stats look bad based on today's game; but within the era, he was fine.
Is Jared Goff good? Mediocre?
Josh Rosen has better weapons around him than Goff did as a rookie, and he's slightly outperforming him. He's a little better than literally the worst rookie season in modern memory. Congratulations.
I would say they are pretty close to the same. Definitely better TE's.
