Here are the all the QBs taken in the first round since 2010
I bolded the ones that really have just not done anything to help their team improve. Giving the benefit of the doubt to a few guys like Tannehil since he has shown life in Tennessee, and Bridgewater looks good when healthy. The new class is on a yet to be decided slate.
Andrew Luck - Overall #1
Sam Bradford - Overall #1
Jameis Winston - Overall #1 (Yeah...great stats but all the INTs and Tampa sucks still)
Cam Newton - Overall #1
Jared Goff - Overall #1
Baker Mayfield - Overall #1 (Another year another sub .500 finish)
Kyler Murray - Overall #1
Carson Wentz - Overall #2
RG3 - Overall #2
Marcus Mariota - Overall #2
Mitchell Trubisky - Overall #2
Blake Bortles - Overall #3
Sam Darnold - Overall #3
Daniel Jones - Overall #6
Josh Allen - Overall #7
Jake Locker - Overall #8
Ryan Tannehill - Overall #8 (And a great example of what happens to a good QB on a disaster of a team, look at him now with Tenn)
Blaine Gabbert - Overall #10
Josh Rosen - Overall #10
Patrick Mahomes - Overall #10
Deshaun Watson - Overall #12
Christian Ponder - Overall #12
Dwayne Haskins - Overall #15
E.J. Manuel - Overall #16
Johnny Manziel - Overall #22
Brandon Weeden - Overall #22
Tim TeBow - Overall #25
Paxton Lynch - Overall #26
Lamar Jackson - Overall ##32
Teddy Bridgewater - Overall #32
I just feel like as bad as this team has been recently with first round picks, (Jonah (hurt), Price (not good), John Ross (crap), Jackson III (kinda regressing but I still have hope), Cedric...just no,) that gamble on a one year wonder really is just too big of a gamble.
They miss on this pick and it screws them for years.
All the current best QB’s outside of Wilson and Rodgers are on that list though.
Jackson, Mahomes, Watson...
Seems to me it’s a point FOR taking a QB in the 1st.
