It's not a $$ thing, and it's not an 'all busts are the same' thing.
It's a 'trust us, he's showing great things in practice, great strides are just around the corner' PR QBOTF sells tickets thing.
But please, tell us a story about a highly drafted QB who 1) busted, 2) didn't get a career ending injury to shorten his stay, 3) was named the team's starter, and 4) the realization of bust-ness took less than years.
