This is the conundrum isn't it ?
and screw the fan base, what is the Right way to develop a QB long term.
I am of the camp to let him watch how AJ handles the blitz. How he handles everyone covered. the mismatches. the blown coverages and the bad play call getting stuffed.
The DT in his face and telling him about his momma each play. how fast these opposing defenses really are. how frustrating it is when your guy runs a poor route or drops a big gain/ or worst of all? when your RT is a turnstile and you know you are going to get killed. what does he say we comes back to the sideline after a failed 3rdand12.
Do not want to hold him back. But preseason and camp are NOT real games. so Coaches are guessing ( educatedly so ) about what happens against guys who want each and everyone, want it as bad as your guys do. The Win .
If they can afford to let him learn, i am all for it.
