In a nutshell it ain't pretty for successful qbs past 2nd

Yep, people say that plenty of 1st round QBs have been bust, but first rounders have overwhelmingly been the ones under center for Super Bowl Champions.  Take Brady out of the equation and the list non-first round SB winning QBs gets really thin.

I'm surprised people are not calling them out on it or even mention that this could be a possibility. 

Yeah, I imagine this will be Carson's last year there.  Penny is a 1-year deal so they have the Spartan in waiting to run with whoever they pick next year. Two brand new tackles will have rookie speedbumps. 

Lock is just going to be launching jump ball bombs to Metcalf and Lockett half the time lol.

if my quick math is right (might not be).  Last 20 years.  24 different QBs have played in the Super Bowl. 

13 first round products.  11 that weren't.

Well sure, but Brady has won 7 of the things, so that's taking a lot of them out of the equation.

Now take Brady out

he was only counted once.  24 different QBs.   Brady only counted once, just like Peyton and Big Ben only were counted once too. 

13 first round, 11 non-first round.

So, I see why they passed in round 2 given the talent pool and knowing others weren't really going to draft a one. 

I think this part of the reasoning has been underrated. This was an abnormally deep draft class. If you don't like a QB enough to take them in the 1st you probably don't like them enough to skip drafting another starting caliber player in the 2nd.

Other reasons:

  • Better QB class projected for 2023
  • Not many teams that "need" a QB
  • Baker + Jimmy being available means you have a semi-known cost for a viable QB option

It is amazing how virtually every early 22' mock was some sort of combination of Rattler, Howell, Willis, Ridder, Slovis, Strong in the TOP 10-15 OVERALL.  And then some random 5th-year senior from Pittsburgh ends up the only QB in the top-70 lol.

Funny enough, they nailed a lot of the high picks elsewhere with the bulk consistently having Kayvon, Stingley, & Neal in the top-10.

Yeah, but next year's predictions will be accurate for sure 😕

Exactly. A lot of times the mocks aren’t even close to being right. Injuries happen, people end up sucking some end up coming out of nowhere.

    • The league would protect him.  The amount of poo Jerry Jones has had exposed and got away with?  The amount of poo Stephen Ross has got away with?  How long Dan Snyder got away with essentially fuging sex trafficking employees and poo???????  Taking down JR was a hit job.  You think the other 31 owners, especially the older ones aren’t blathering, blatant, ignorant ass, bigoted rich racists who have committed far worse things than Blue Jean Fridays?  The ones I named above have DEFINITELY did worse than what JR was accused of.  And do you think guys like Steve Smith would’ve been viewing him as a father figure if they felt that’s who he was?  JR pissed the league off with that last lockout situation and they made him pay.  They lined a new guy up to join their billionaire boys club in Tepper, and they prolly slid a pretty penny to Jonathan Jones to write the “expose,” to get JR out of here.  Again, all the owners I’ve listed above have been verified on record for doing worse poo, yet they’re still running their organizations, unquestioned.  They hand-picked Tepper long before JR was forced out, so he isn’t going anywhere.  Sadly.  fug the NFL.  (Also, to be clear, it’s always fug racism, bigotry, and sexual exploitation - not ever excusing it.  Just making the point that the NFL isn’t operating under this clear standard of justice applied to each and every case)
    • I was still in the throes of a contentious divorce and my job at the time had me work on Sundays.  At the beginning of the season I tried to still work around Sundays so I could see our games.  I think after Bryce came back from the benching, I said fug it.  First time in my life I intentionally didn’t watch our games, even through the Atlanta finale.  In the past, even if we didn’t live up to expectations, I would watch to still support and at least analyze player development, strengths and weaknesses, coaching, etc., but Bryce makes all of that a moot point, so I stopped watching. Again, this is asinine,  it if he is retained (still can’t believe this is even a possibility of a conversation due to how shitty our organization has become under Tepper), I will NOT watch next season until he is gone.
