My Take
Quarterback is the loneliest, most pressurized job in team sport, and Jim Everett carried it for twelve NFL seasons, mostly with the Los Angeles Rams. Going third overall in the 1986 draft loads a young player with enormous expectation, and merely surviving a dozen years at that position takes serious resilience. I tend to favor the steady, durable pro over the flashy meteor, and Everett reads to me as that kind of dependable workhorse, a tall Kansas kid who shouldered the franchise during glamorous Rams years. Longevity at quarterback is its own quiet form of greatness, and he had it.
