You don't know who IS a franchise QB until he's already established himself. As Reaper16 mentioned, all but Brady were drafted with that potential in mind.
When you have a franchise QB you know it. He is your QB and you don't think about anyone else under center for the next 10 years. Fans from other teams don't make jokes about him. They fear him and don't want the ball in his hands with the game on the line. He has the ability to make plays that most QBs wouldn't. He can bring a team back by himself. He makes John Madden say all kinds of stupid stuff. Everyone wants to see him play, because he is one of the best players in the league. It is like no other feeling in the world, because if the rest of your team is average you are an automatic contender year in and year out.
The Chiefs haven't had one in 35 years.
