Re: Atrocious QB performances
Woodson does develop into a good QB, and if you play it right, he can be effective at first while he develops.
treat him like a rookie. Run the ball and use few passing plays at first. Rely more on play action than traditional drop back passes. You have to kinda bring him along slowly, you can't just draft him and have the whole offense open up at once. In other words, use your safest plays with him while he's developing.
One thing that works well when developing QB's like this is if you have an older, decent QB on your roster. Start him most of the games, bring Woodson in on goaline situations for a quick TD from a play action or a QB run. Bring him in also if you got a good lead in the 4th quarter so he can get some experience. Ratings will go up faster if your QB has sucess, so you have to kind of limit the chances of putting him in a position where he makes mistakes as best you can. If you plan on unloading Woodson for picks now, this is a good way to get his ratings higher so you get more in return when you do trade him.
As Tom said, a really good pre-season while jump his rating as well.
