The fans give up on them (as we've seen here), the players just collect their paychecks and ownership was probably already fugged up anyways and will continue to do so.

Go add up the number of Super Bowls won by QBs taken #1 overall.
Then, compare it to the number of Super Bowls won by any other draft pick.
If any other draft pick has a number of SBs > #1 overall, let me know.
Eli Manning, John Elway, Peyton Manning, Troy Aikman, Terry Bradshaw.
Eleven Super Bowls right there.
