Brady fucks your bell curve hard dude.

He's the great outlier.

David Carr, Alex Smith, Sam Bradford, Jameis Winston, Baker Mayfield, Bryce Young all busts..that's quite a few

I think Carr and Couch are the only legit busts. Winston is still better than some starters today despite being a backup.

There's a wide range of bust in there.

JaMarcus is only a bust by the complete idiocy of the Raiders, but he has to be the worst. He should’ve never even been drafted. Rohan Davey and Matt Mauck were better prospects.

Baker Mayfield just took his team team to the playoffs and advanced.

But the pick is a bust because he was awful for the Browns. Anybody could have signed Baker Mayfield this offseason

He wasn't awful for the Browns. He was a productive version of Zach Wilson. MANY of his teammates hated him and the Browns stupidly traded for Watson.

He wasn't great. His numbers were Fields like in Cleveland

There are tiers to those 1/1 QBs.

Sometimes a QB goes first because they’re considered the best player at the position (e.g., Goff). Other times they’re taken 1/1 because they’re no doubters (e.g., Luck). The latter are rarely busts.

1999: Tim Couch, QB, Kentucky – Cleveland Browns

2001: Michael Vick, QB, Virginia Tech – Atlanta Falcons
2002: David Carr, QB, Fresno State – Houston Texans
2003: Carson Palmer, QB, USC – Cincinnati Bengals
2004: Eli Manning, QB, Ole Miss – San Diego Chargers
2005: Alex Smith, QB, Utah – San Francisco 49ers

2007: JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU – Oakland Raiders

2009: Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia – Detroit Lions
2010: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma – St. Louis Rams
2011: Cam Newton, QB, Auburn – Carolina Panthers
2012: Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford – Indianapolis Colts

2015: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State – Tampa Bay Buccaneers
2016: Jared Goff, QB, California – Los Angeles Rams

2018: Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma – Cleveland Browns
2019: Kyler Murray, QB, Oklahoma – Arizona Cardinals
2020: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU – Cincinnati Bengals
2021: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson – Jacksonville Jaguars

2023: Bryce Young, QB, – Carolina Panthers

18 times in the last 25 years NFL teams and their fans came out of draft day after selecting a QB 1/1 thinking We're goin' to the Super Bowl! and not one of those teams who drafted a QB 1st overall has won a Super Bowl with that QB.

3 teams have had the joy of losing a Super Bowl with their 1/1 QB.

Bryce Young ever gets anywhere near the playoffs or wins a Super Bowl it will be with a team not owned by David Tepper.

Burrow might still get it done; but he could also end up retiring early due to his chronic injury issues, like Luck. Or the Bengals make the Super Bowl with Burrow injured on the sidelines while Jake Browning QB-cucks his way to a Super Bowl, a la Earl Morrall and Bob Griese.

Couch and Russell are really the only true bust to me. I think Bradford and his shoulder got him but I don’t consider any others a bust

There's some pretty solid overall 1 busts, like Couch or Leaf, but overall #1 qb have a solid record. None of that matters though. What happened in the past. I generally dismiss trends wrt stuff like that.

The jury is still out on Young, but it's not promising.

Alex Smith may not have won a ring as a starting QB, but he is not a bust by any means. 7 playoff starts with 2 different teams, 199 passing TDs, and 35,000 yards in his career. The Bears all time leading passer has 23K yards and 154 TDs Bryce Young has played a grand total of one NFL season. Still has time before you can call him a bust, though he is not off to a good start. viewtopic.php?f=181&t=130389

I wouldn't draft any of em with 1st overall. Fine to take most any of 'em further down the board. Six of one, half-dozen of another, or whatever folksy saying Phil Longo used to describe this QB class.

He was really productive but couldn't stop throwing as many interceptions as touchdowns.

Shade thrown at Tracey Lawrence and JaMarcus Russell, not even worthy of a bold font. Last 25 years 1/1 QB selections are 0-3 in Super Bowl appearances for the teams that drafted them. 0 Super Bowls won for the drafting team among 18 QB's taken 1/1 overall in last 25 years. 3 one-and-done SB appearances on the wrong side - Burrow/Bengals, Goff/Rams, Cam/Panthers Quote: 1999: Tim Couch, QB, Kentucky – Cleveland Browns 2001: Michael Vick, QB, Virginia Tech – Atlanta Falcons 2002: David Carr, QB, Fresno State – Houston Texans 2003: Carson Palmer, QB, USC – Cincinnati Bengals 2004: Eli Manning, QB, Ole Miss – San Diego Chargers 2005: Alex Smith, QB, Utah – San Francisco 49ers 2007: JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU – Oakland Raiders 2009: Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia – Detroit Lions 2010: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma – St. Louis Rams 2011: Cam Newton, QB, Auburn – Carolina Panthers 2012: Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford – Indianapolis Colts 2015: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2016: Jared Goff, QB, California – Los Angeles Rams 2018: Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma – Cleveland Browns 2019: Kyler Murray, QB, Oklahoma – Arizona Cardinals 2020: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU – Cincinnati Bengals 2021: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson – Jacksonville Jaguars 2023: Bryce Young, QB, – Carolina Panthers

Jameis Winston nearly threw for more passing yards and touchdowns in one season than Fields has for his entire career. He's considered a bust by MANY because he couldn't cut back on the interceptions.
