played in?? wtf is that.. im talking champions...

you dont want a loser.. you play to win the game... you play to win the game...

does this change the fact that there has only been 7 qbs drafted in the first rd in the last 30 years that have won a sb..

skew the data all you want to say what you want... but it doesnt change the fact...

that there has only been 7 champion qbs taken in the first rd in the last 30 years..

FIFY


Earl Morrell (1st rd pick) was the winning QB of Super Bowl V

Steve Young was the 1st pick in the first and only supplemental draft for USFL players. That does not deny the fact he was a 1st rd pick in an NFL draft

maybe morrell was or wasnt... unitas had the only td pass though... debatable..

steve young as you said was the 1st pick in the first and only supplemental draft for USFL players. thanks.. a supplemental draft as stated...

-^-
//\\


so as i stated in the title

1st RD QB does not = SB Ring ------- TRUTH

and as i was saying in the thread

there has only been 7 champion qbs taken in the first rd in the last 30 years -- TRUTH

so basically during the lifetime of most ccs members.. theyve only seen 7 qbs drafted in the first that actually became a champion.. while at the same time 8 non first rd qbs become one as well... -- TRUTH

sure, historically 1sts are favoured over non firsts.. by a tad... but over the last 30 years it hasnt been so... -- TRUTH

you ppl like trends...

I don't think its debatable when Morrell played more minutes and when he came in the Colts were losing.


"so basically during the lifetime of most ccs members.. only 7 qbs drafted in the first became a champion.. while at the same time 8 non first rd qbs become one as well... -- TRUTH"

False - In the last 30 Super Bowls there has only been 5 non 1st rd QBS to win. (drafted in the same time period)

"sure, historically 1sts are favoured over non firsts.. by a tad... but over the last 30 years it hasnt been so... -- TRUTH"

False - see above

Again I see you observation but your looking into a vacuum.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Cubs
  1. Chicago Bulls
  1. Chicago Bears
  1. Chicago Blackhawks
OP is correct but the cause and effect inference is not. Most important position in sports is worth trying to find the best person to play it... which means an earlier pick. Unfortunately it's also the most difficult position to play or project but that doesn't mean you stop trying. Of that list only 7 were taken beyond 3 and Young was taken with the 1st pick in the supplemental draft. If your guy is there in 1, you take him. If he isn't, you pass. Pretty simple.

Concept of team game is completely lost here as well. A few of those QBs had good seasons but were along for the ride. There is also a Brady effect. He's an exception that tips scales.

Now it's the last "30ish" years? Nice try Lol You consistently stated 30 years.

How is the the last 30 Super Bowls any different then the last 30 years of the draft?

And it's (edit) 6 not 8 (Jeff Hostetler 1984 Mark Rypien 1986 are outside the last 30 drafts or SB) if you are going to include players drafted in that same time period as you are with the winners. You can't have it one ways. If so then 10 of the last 30 SB (drafts) are first rd picks not 7.

You are so far into the vacuum you're forgetting your own argument.

A true comparison would be to compare, round 1 vs round n. Not round 1 vs the field, of course with the field there are more QBs. However if you compare each round individually against rnd 1. You will see that round 1 is by far the best round to find a SB winning QB.

it started with roughly 30 years if you go back n reads..

also went back further than 30 mentioning elway and jimmy mac in other replies...

point is still the same... only 7 qbs drafted in the 1st rd have become champions in the last 30 years.. if you include 84, 85, 86 like hoss and ryp... still 7.. you have to go back to 83 to hit elway...

someone kind of gets it... you mention TEAM... it is a team game... qb is just a part of the whole... sb winning qbs can be had in the first or not... its not the end all be all.. build a team..

you can get a sb champion via trade/fa... whether they are a 1st rder or not... that works too.. sure...you dont have to draft one..

lots of ways to aquire a sb champion QB... though lots of ppl swear you have to draft a qb high in the first... its juss not true

Since 1985 the Bears have played in 4 NFC Championship games and 2 Super Bowls. All games were started by a first round qb.

This. LOL how he conveniently skipped your post. Round one versus non round one is a fatal flaw.

There is no QB in this draft that is close to the talent of these QB's

I completely agree.. this draft is weak at QB.. just the Bears luck.. we finally in a position to grab a QB early.. and they all have BUST written all over them..

thats why im on the JG bandwagon
