The answer is burrow. But... I don't think burrow will ever be valued as a top 3-4 QB. If you don't mind taking the risk, I think Caleb could be more valuable than burrow as early as next year.

This reminds me of a classic family guy episode....

Ho-ho-hold on! You have a choice. You can take the boat... or the mystery box!

We'll take the boat.

Hold on. Not so fast, Lois! A boat is a boat. But the mystery box can be anything... it can even be a boat! You know how much we've wanted one of those.

Then lets just

We'll take the box!

We'll take the box... you traded a boat for two free tickets to the comedy club!

Come on, Lois... you act like this is the first time I did anything stupid.

I think back to last year and if pre season I asked Stroud vs. Burrow, it would have been Burrow easily. I don't think it is crazy to project Caleb to be valued higher a year from now. So if they are being drafted so closely, isn't it just risk tolerance to take Caleb and the 5 additional years of youth? I also don't think it is crazy to think Caleb could run more and have a higher ceiling than Burrow.

Maybe my take here means I actually prefer Caleb haha.

But in this case, the boat has had trouble lately landing when the waves are rough, thereby being stuck in the marina. The boat used to run pretty darn well, but is that always what you’ll get with an older boat that’s been repaired a few times. Good as new?

I think the problem is he could be valued higher than Burrow next year but probably not significantly higher. If he for some reason is a bust he could be valued significantly lower

Give me Burrow. Caleb may have a higher FF ceiling, but carries significant bust risk compared to Burrow..Burrows value may not get higher but it’s not gonna get lower whereas Caleb’s could go higher or much lower in a year…
