At this point, it doesn't even matter because the Chiefs have chosen their QB for 2013, so a QB at #1 overall won't be the selection.

Ohh you found one year where there was an exception? Well I guess that's that. LOL...
I don't find your example to be convincing. Joe Thomas hasn't made much of a difference to his team obviously. Because the QBs he's been protecting have been dog shit, they haven't won anything. And Joe Staley hasn't either, until his team finally got some elite QB play. Imagine that......
