The First Round QB

OK, everyone knows it is beyond ridiculous that the Chiefs haven't drafted a QB in round 1 since Todd Blackledge in 1983. As much as I love Derrick Johnson, I can't look at him without thinking of Aaron Rodgers. That got me thinking, how many first round QB's have the other teams taken in that time span? Has every other team taken multiple first round QBs since 1983? Well, here is the breakdown:

Patriots: Drew Bledsoe (93)
Bills: JP Losman (04), EJ Manuel (13)
Jets: Chad Pennington (00), Mark Sanchez (09)
Dolphins: Ryan Tannehill (12)

Steelers: Ben Roethlisberger (04)
Bengals: David Klingler (92), Akili Smith (99), Carson Palmer (03)
Old Browns/Ravens: Kyle Boller (03), Joe Flacco (08)
New Browns: Tim Couch (99), Brady Quinn (07), Branden Weeden (12), Johnny Manziel (14)

Texans: David Carr (02)
Oilers/Titans: Jim Everett (86), Steve McNair (94), Vince Young (06), Jake Locker (11), Marcus Mariota (15)
Jaguars: Byron Leftwich (03), Blaine Gabbert (11), Blake Bortles (14)
Colts: Jeff George (90), Peyton Manning (98), Andrew Luck (12)

Broncos: Tommy Maddox (92), Jay Cutler (06), Tim Tebow (10), Paxton Lynch (16)
Raiders: Todd Marinovich (91), Jamarcus Russell (07)
Chargers: Ryan Leaf (98), Philip Rivers (04)

Cowboys: Troy Aikman (89)
Eagles: Donovan McNabb (99), Carson Wentz (16)
Giants: Eli Manning (04)
Redskins: Heath Shuler (94), Patrick Ramsey (02), Jason Campbell (05), Robert Griffin III (12)

Packers: Aaron Rodgers (05)
Bears: Jim Harbaugh (87), Cade McNown (99), Rex Grossman (03)
Vikings: Daunte Culpepper (99), Christian Ponder (11), Teddy Bridgewater (14)
Lions: Chuck Long (86), Andre Ware (90), Joey Harrington (02), Matt Stafford (09)

Panthers: Kerry Collins (94), Cam Newton (11)
Bucs: Vinny Testaverde (87), Trent Dilfer (94), Josh Freeman (09), Jameis Winston (15)
Saints: None
Falcons: Chris Miller (87), Michael Vick (01), Matt Ryan (08)

49ers: Jim Druckenmiller (97), Alex Smith (05)
Seahawks: Dan McGwire (91), Rick Mirer (93)
Rams: Sam Bradford (10), Jared Goff (16)
Cardinals: Kelly Stouffer (87), Matt Leinart (06)

Notes:
The Saints are the only other team to not draft a first round QB in that time (although they have had a franchise QB for a decade plus so they haven't really needed one)

The teams that have only drafted one QB in that time frame have all had a franchise QB for an extended period (except the Texans and they are a new team)

Embarassing

The Akili era would've been challenging, but I wouldn't mind having Joe Flacco, I guess.

We need to start asking the question. "Where is our Flacco?"
The Chiefs have decided signing a Flacid is a better way to go than drafting a Flacco.

And said team has never, in its history, ever drafted and developed their own starting QB. And said team has a consistent history of being one and done in the playoffs.

Correlation & Causation?

Three teams playing this weekend have drafted first-round quarterbacks since 2004. However, 21 of the teams that have been eliminated have drafted first-round quarterbacks since 2004. Obviously from these figures, drafting a first-round quarterback hurts your chances.

The Chiefs have four playoff wins since 1970.

Since 1970, there have been 19 quarterbacks taken in the first round with either more playoff wins than the Chiefs, or a Super Bowl.

Those 19 quarterbacks have accounted for 25 of the last 46 Super Bowl wins.

Please, Chiefs. Please.

It isn't about drafting a 1st Round QB, it is about drafting the RIGHT QB for your team. Whatever round that is in. You shouldn't draft a QB just because it is the 1st round. Let's not forget in 2014 Johnny Manziel was drafted in the 1st and Derek Carr was drafted in the 2nd. This fixation on the 1st round is ridiculous.

We have teams that are bad at quarterback. We have teams that are good at quarterback. Two conclusions are abundantly obvious:

1) The Chiefs are really bad at quarterback.
2) Don't be bad at quarterback.

I'm talking to you, Clarke.

Chiefs suck.

What an incompetent franchise. I don't think they understand the positive correlational relationship between a great quarterback and a championship.

Please, Chiefs. Please.
Hard to argue against this.
KC needs some ballers & game changers at the receiver position. Along with a Q/B with a big arm.

I wonder what this list would look like if it included QBs taken in the first 2 rounds.

Then again, maybe it's best we don't look and see. Grown men logged on to a website about football should not be weeping.
