OK. 22 QBs chosen in the top half of the first round from 2011-19. First year of rookie deals that changed everything. 
 

  7 are(were) worthy of that status. Cam, Luck, Watson, Mahomes, Allen, Mayfield, Murray. Tannehill and Goff could go either way. 

13 were busts. Locker, Gabbert, Ponder, Manuel, RG111, Bortles, Winston, Mariota, Darnold, Haskins, Rosen, Trubisky, Jones. 
 

  So of 20, there is a 35% a team gets a franchise QB. Of all those busts, who “turned” it around? Tannehill was on his 2nd contract, with a major injury, on the team that drafted him.

Can you do the same exercise for 1st round CBs?

If a Franchise didn't do jackshit to develop a young QB, how in the hell can that fall at the feet of said QB and not the Franchise(Jets)? 

Hell...The Jets didn't even have a goddamn QB Coach to help him.    The closest he had to one was McCown, a Backup QB who was with him his rookie season(and then was gone the next two).

These are the QBs to make it to the SB last 15 years. 10 are first rounders. 7 aren't.  

You really can't glean much from it.  Teams win SB's.

   WTF? Who said anything about any of that. I posted names and numbers. What’s the issue and what does it have to do with what I posted?

Darnold is on the list of "Bust" which I don't agree with.

So I replied to that part. 🤨

If you got that from a list on a website somewhere and it's not your opinion, then my bad.  

But if it is, then there you go.

If it works out that PJ is better than Sam Darnold, it wont be because PJ is some wunderkind.  It will be because Darnold is truly damaged and a bust.  Sam will have to butt-fumble his way out of Charlotte.

Yep.  That would be a true nightmare, imo.

Not just because it would all but end Sam's chances at being a starter wherever he ends up but we will never hear the end of it from CP and his shaking-of-the-poms-poms for PJ.   lol.

  The team that drafted him, chose to go with a rookie QB Instead of keeping him and getting 3 #1 picks. And he not even done being cheap yet. He is a Jets draft bust. 3 years of average, to below average play. And a 2nd round pick. What team would be satisfied with those results. Until he shows otherwise, he is a subpar starting QB.

Will you relax about Darnold. He just gave you data because you were wanting it. At this point Darnold would be considered a bust since he was drafted number 3 overall and just was traded away for pocket change. A lot of busts are products of their environment. Hopefully he is still young enough and coachable enough to where our staff can resurrect his career. He definitely had some flashes at NYJ and very little support.

Technically, I never specifically asked for his "data". 

He gave it as a response to @OldhamA*shrugs*

His list is just subjective conjecture. 

Mahommes is the only one to win a SB and Cam & Goff are the only other ones to make it there.    

The odds are so small to find a Mahommes, Brady, Manning,  and Wilson who can take you there year after year and even then, its still a team effort.

5% or 8% chance the odds are still overwhelmingly against you.

The safe bet, is to always bet against your team going to the SB in a given year.   Which is what gives the critics fuel because odds are, no matter who we choose, they're right.

I think the strategy of focusing on building the team, being frugal with draft capital, and trying to find the diamond in the rough QB is a good strategy.

 It’s pretty straightforward. Busts didn’t get 2nd contracts. Pretty simple. Wentz(who I forgot) is like Tannehill and Goff. All played well enough for the team that drafted them to invest a franchise QB deal in them. And I still didn’t include them in either list. 
 

   As opposed to whatever jumble of reasoning you just put out there. My parameters are very clear. You have a better measurement. Please share with us all. Not a single data point. A large sample size.

    • I am blown away at how bad we have been with the picks we've made. For all the hand wringing about "getting worked" in trade ups, etc. is small fries in comparison to the absolute trash picks we've made. Hit on even half of the picks and this team is 8-8 or better. Just like in most industries the "fun" parts of the job are always overrun with incompetents (due to favortism and politics) when you have a bad leader. Look at Dallas. Jerry wants so bad to be involved in talent acquisitions that the team eternally sucks. Same for us. 
    • I honestly think the huddle would run this organization better. We would draft better for sure. How is that possible when these guys devote their careers to it?
    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.
