Here's something interesting to ponder today. Here's a list of the pro bowlers drafted by the Chiefs and the Broncos since Elway started drafting. (Pro bowls can be for the their team or some other team just to keep it easy.)
One can argue that the only successful draft pick in Elway's nine years was Von Miller, and it's hard to screw up the #2 pick in the draft.
Chiefs:
13 pro bowlers with 31 selections.
3-63 - Travis Kelce - 5 Pro Bowls
5-165 - Tyreek Hill - 4 Pro Bowls
3-70 - Justin Houston - 4 Pro Bowls
1-18 - Marcus Peters - 3 Pro Bowls
2-55 - Rodney Hudson - 3 Pro Bowls
1-10 - Patrick Mahomes - 2 Pro Bowls
1-11 - Dontari Poe - 2 Pro Bowls
2-56 - Mecole Hardman - 1 Pro Bowls
3-86 - Kareem Hunt - 1 Pro Bowls
2-37 - Chris Jones - 1 Pro Bowls
5-172 - D.J. Alexander - 1 Pro Bowls
1-23 - Dee Ford - 1 Pro Bowls
1-1 - Eric Fisher - 1 Pro Bowls
broncos:
4 pro bowlers with 12 selections
1-2 - Von Miller - 8 Pro Bowls
4-129 - Julius Thomas - 2 Pro Bowls
2-40 - Courtland Sutton - 1 Pro Bowls
5-137 - Malik Jackson - 1 Pro Bowls
