Summary:
33% of time first QB chosen is best in class
On a year to year basis The top QB in the class was found in the top 10 draft picks 56% of time
18 QBs were identified as long term starters. 11 of 18 (61%) top 10 picks, 2 of 18 (11%) picks 11-32, 5 of 18 (28%) rounds 2-4. |
Good data here!
I think Scheme fit is overlooked with QB but other positions it’s more scrutinized. There a more QB friendly places: Andy Reid...rarely do you see a QB “not work”. Alex Smith had his best year of a long career with him. McNabb would have been a bust half the other places he would have landed. Mike Vick got rich again under Andy.
