Brock Purdy - Mr. Irrelevant - takes team to NFCC in his first season.
Ryan Leaf (and others) - high draft picks - didn't do sh!t.
I wouldn't call it a crapshoot, no. There's inherent risk, yes, but there are teams who are consistently better at drafting than others. That takes skill. Pittsburgh always seems to find productive receivers, for example. The Chiefs. Baltimore. These teams are able to find productive players at a more consistent rate than others.
