Why Getting the Right GM Matters More Than Trevor Lawrence

So only 2 out of 5 QBs taken 1st overall you could consider elite for at least a good portion of their career (Luck and Newton). Meanwhile outside the 1st overall pick, 2 became elite, 3 started in the Superbowl, 2 won rings, and at least 6 made the prowbowl as many times or more than Stafford.

So over the time you picked to show you need a 1st overall pick to get an elite QB, you were as likely to pick a bust as you were to pick an elite QB with that pick.

Yes, every other pick combined is more likely to produce a franchise QB than the first overall pick...good job showing that math. However, the first overall pick is far more likely than any other single pick.
