Well, plenty of HOFers got drafted in the 3rd. Likely? Maybe not.  But the 2 GOATs came in the 3rd and 6th at the position.  All picks are lotto tickets to a degree. 

People don't get this.

40 SBs have been won by a QB who was drafted by that championship team. Four of those QBs led their teams to a dynasty. Brady with 6 trophies (pick 199), Montana (pick 82) with 4 trophies, Bradshaw (pick 1) with 4 trophies, and Aikman (pick 1) with 3 trophies.

In the last 9 seasons, only 1 first round QB has won the SB for the team that drafted them. 3 QBs outside the first round have led their team that drafted them to 5 of those 9 SB championships.

5 of the 9 SB losers drafted their QBs in the 1st round. Goff, Newton, Ryan, Burrow, and Mahomes.

Brady, Wilson, and Mahomes have been the only 3 QBs drafted by their team to show up in multiple SBs over the past decade.

What can we learn from this? Drafting a QB to be your franchise QB gives you the best shot to win a SB, and not drafting that QB in the 1st round increases your chances at going to multiple SBs and cementing your franchise as an NFL dynasty. Facts.

The reason we've sat here all night with no picks while all this value goes off the board that could greatly help us is why Matt Rhule got his keys taken away.  

fuging idiot.

Luckily I was working til now so haven't witnessed the real life pain of watching all these teams pick potential starters all night long. Really deep day 2

You are right, but in fairness, Brady does skew the results a little.

    • He has attempted 8 shootout goals in his NHL career and made 1. He is among our worst SO guys on the entire roster in terms of career stats.
    • Against Miami, the Panthers were behind by 17 in the 2nd quarter facing a 4th - 5. Young completed a 21 yard pass and they went on to score 7 on that drive. Then in the 4th, down by 4, they faced a 4th - 5 and again, he completed a 17 yard pass and they went onto score a TD for the win. He also accounted for 2 of the 3 TD's.  As I said, he got them in that mess and no doubt, Rico gets credit as well, but missing on either of those 4th down conversions hands the ball over and results in 1 or 2 less TD's giving them a loss. As you said though, that's just a small quibble. The real question is how does the FO see it?  I am guessing they see it as something to build on. I think most peope here see it as a total loss and fully expect the FO to see it that way as well. Time will tell.  
    • Kochetkov is just too streaky. TBD if Freddie is doing that too. Freddie is the more reliable goalie over his career. The Bussi kid looks like he could be a solid #2 eventually.  Just need to figure out the #1 guy. Same as almost every year. It's not talent, it's consistency and being able to step up in the playoffs.
