so missing on a draft pick is okay at QB but at any other position the GM should be fired?

or is it that fans give themselves a pass but break out the pitchforks for the GM?

In situation A) the GM is at least giving the team a chance to win. In situation B) the team has no chance to win.

Don't really see why this is so difficult to understand.

No.

If you draft an IMPACTFUL player high, you inherently have higher risk and higher reward.

Fans like tackles because if they bust (and they do, at a higher rate than QBs actually) it doesn't hurt.

Of course, they completely ignore the fact that when those guys play at a high level, it often ALSO goes unnoticed because it has almost no impact on wins and losses.
