First Round QBs who won a Super Bowl with a team that did not Draft him

[EMH]

People who spend their entire lives evaluating football players and who make millions of dollars a year to make the decisions on whether to draft them and when (GM's and Coaches) are likely a bit better at it than some random internet troll (you).

Parroting is a religion.

I'm parroting a greater guru than you. It doesn't matter how many times that guru fucked up completely, I still parrot...

Apparently so is willful stupidity. But you have the freedom to choose your religion as much as anyone else.

Them getting a few pick wrong doesn't make you right.

It's not parroting guru's it's being intelligent enough to know that there are people who are better at things than I am. People who spend their entire lives evaluating football players and who make millions of dollars a year to make the decisions on whether to draft them and when (GM's and Coaches) are likely a bit better at it than some random internet troll (you).

It is always reported they go about 50-50 on QB picks. Flipping a coin on top picks yes or no could do that.
Yes, some organizations misuse the QB picks (like a Sam Darnold I suppose) and they should have actually been a good choice?

What Sam Darnold proves (IMO) is that where you get drafted has a huge effect on your career. Darnold went to the Jets, and he's not the first QB to have been drafted there and been a "bust". Darnold, Sanchez, O'Brien. Even Namath who won a SB and is in the HOF (how is beyond me) didnt really have a good career there. He played 13 years in the league, had a losing record and threw 173 TDs vs 220 Ints.

This is what I think so far of the NFL Draft/offseason 2026...

After Fernando goes to the Raiders, the next best QB is Malik Willis as a UFA, or Spencer Rattler if the Saints are willing to trade him. No other QB in this Draft grades First Round.

There are ZERO historical "First Round OTs" in this Draft. Mauigoa, Fano, they are traditional 2/3rd rounders. Lomu should have stayed another year, a lot of athleticism not yet ready for NFL action. Proctor will impress those obsessed with size, but the better NFL edge rushers will torch him. If you need an OT this offseason, you are flat out of luck.

For Monroe Freeling.... this is what he looked like a few years earlier

He is 200 pounds of basketball slim and 120 pounds of roids. Yes, he is a good prospect at 320, but what does he do to maintain that weight?

CJ Davis of illinois has the best tape of any of them, aside from two plays against Duke early in the season where he was beaten outside with speed because he was "duh-ing" at the snap. But CJ showed up at 340 to the Senior Bowl, which is too heavy for him, and he looked good then injured his foot on his only "loss" in the drills. CJ's tape against Ohio State and USC was first round.


Best interior DL in the Draft = Chris McClellan of Mizzou
