A refresher course on Round 2 QBs
 

Here is the list of QBs picked in the 2nd round from the beginning of time.


The breakdown out of 69 QBs


Winning records + at least 40 wins: 8 or 11.5%

Playoff winners: 11 or 15.9%

Playoff winners for the team that drafted them: 7 or 10.1%

Super Bowl qualifiers: 6 or 8.69%

Super Bowl winners: 3 or 4.34%

Super Bowl winners for the team that drafted them: 1 or 1.4%

The odds are not good.

Also I looked at 1st round QBs, and the odds basically double. If you pick a QB in the 1st round you basically have a 25% chance of him turning out to be at least Trent Green, i.e. several years of success (40+ wins) and/or a playoff win or two.

Every situation is different.

And every sperm is NOT sacred.

They get significantly LESS sacred after the 1st round.

But you can get one there.

I'd rather draft a player at #1 overall who has a 30% chance of becoming Aaron Rodgers than wait until the 2nd round and take a player who has a 50% chance of becoming Andy ****ing Dalton.

I really don't see any Colin Kaepernicks who will be available in the 2nd round of the boom/bust variety. I see a lot of flaccid, soft-dicked guys who might be Andy Dalton one of these days.

Continuing the 2011 metaphor, we should take the Cam Newton at #1 rather than assume Christian Ponder and Andy Dalton will be good enough to put this team over the top in a few seasons.

The most mathetically way to win a Super Bowl is draft one yourself at number one. I don't see why its that ****ing hard to get that through idiot skulls.

Some of you are going to have a nervous break down by the time the draft happens or worse.
