The truth is that more teams have been burnt investing first round picks on their dream QB than those who have won a championship with their guy.

I'm not saying it doesn't happen. I said the majority of Superbowl winners are won by team drafted and developed QB's, at least in the last 20 seasons.
I'm not going to get sucked into this debate, but you know that there is a difference between the caliber of player Brees and Young are/were, and Alex Smith/Grbac/Green/Cassel, etc...
If the Chiefs were bringing in QB's of that caliber we'd probably have a championship by now, but I'd still much prefer a guy the Chiefs draft and develop and have around for 10+ seasons, a guy we can really get behind, than this constant band-aid QB crap.
