I think? Zims head would have exploded if slick had drafted Lamar. Both Mahomes & Lamar were not draft & play qb's that fit any existing schemes. Their success came bc the HC's involved designed schemes that fit the running QB they picked.
Ya think Norv Turners replacement( Pat Shurmer) & Zim would have redone the entire offense to fit a rook qb's non traditional skill set?
Note- Shurmer did 1 year in MN, went on to be giants hc in 2018 & 2019. Was given Daniel Jones, a Lamar clone. And failed miserably trying to force DJ to become a pocket QB.
I love Lamar Jackson. But as a Viking?
I think it would a been a disaster.
