I would have to imagine that if more lower-round QBs were given the time and patience that QBs like Harrington and Leftwich got, you would see a far higher success rate. But they don't. That's just the nature of the game. It's an understandable decision, but realize that it's an unfair statement to make that lower round QBs fail at such a high rate because they aren't any good. Most of them fail because they were never given a chance to prove one way or the other.

I understand what you're trying to say. Really, I do.
But my point is that there's a reason why these guys aren't given as many opportunities; teams don't like slamming their dicks up against a wall.
Every once in a great while, some team's dick punctures the dry wall on a miraculous wet spot, known as Tom Brady, and unbelievable jizzing ensues, which causes all teams (and fans) to think, "If we'd only been slamming our dicks against the wall. We, too, could be pumping gallons of jizz."
But this is flawed logic. 9.9 times out of 10, you're just going to get a sore dick.
