Maybe a top 10 QB at some point, but I don't think that's true anymore. More QBs are emerging and younger QBs like Stroud coming in the league. I think Lamar is now pushed to somewhere in the top 15. When you get that far down the list, you are just slightly above avg.
No he shouldn't have been, but this award seems to be all about the 1 seed. It shouldn't be but it is.
