the O isn't set up for a pro-style QB like Barnett to easily just get plugged in.
Not to say that Barnett is as mobile as Hurts (because he isnt), but if i recall correctly he was the #1 dual threat QB coming out of high school. He was never billed as a pure pocket-passing QB.
This one stings... if he had stayed and something happened to Jalen, i think we would have been able to slot him in well. But now with Bateman as the backup, the scheme would definitely have to change to accommodate his lack of mobility.

Bateman is faster than Hurts, and got practice time at WR a couple of years ago. He's not as good of a runner as Hurts, but he's certainly not immobile.
