Hell, they even made fun of the pick on NFL Network (It was a meme, in a commercial)
Sure, it looks like a great pick, NOW
But at the time it was... "Nice pick, Cowher"
I think what people are getting on you about is the fact that you are saying "there was LITERALLY no indicator he would be good".
He was the 11th overall pick brother. I can understand sometimes people use hyperbole and that's cool. However, you are trying to be serious and say that he literally had nothing suggesting that he would be a good QB. Real NFL scouts and coaches reviewed the tape and saw something so there was indication to folks who do their job that he could be a good QB. Hell, popular draft pundits like Mel Kiper and WalterFootball also liked the Ben pick. It wasn't a pick out of left field.
