[@majob]

​@Cruckavens777 No read over that again. Rookies rarely hit the ground running in the NFL because the game is faster, and their opponenets are smarter compared to college. The standard used to be selecting the successor early and letting the learn behind the starter. Steve Young and Montana, Rodgers and Favre, Mahomes and Smith. When a rookie qb is allowed a year or more to sit back and learn from a veteran, their performance is more likely to be better. Now qbs are just thrown into the fire, many of them are raw and need more refining and they just don't get it. The League is littered with squandered potential at the qb position

[@justinlast2lastharder749]

​@@Cruckavens777You have to ease them in. Ben Roethlisberger threw 17 passes a game his first year. Brady didn't pass for 4,000 yards in a season until 2005, when he won his 3rd Super Bowl.

Giving the benefit of doubt, we are only 2 years removed from 2022, so I'd say we need at least one more year before we can definitely say a QB is a bust or not. Remember, Josh Allen (Bills QB) had a pretty erratic start to his career, and it was in year 3 when he finally broke out and established himself under center. It also helps he had a good offensive coaching staff to work on his mechanics, though their penchant for choking is another matter entirely. If Allen or even Mahomes lacked the right system or coach to unlock their talents, their names would have been on the bust list. There is still a chance that any of the 2022 QB class can still surprise us, but the fact that many of them have changed teams (and coaches), it's a damning testament no matter which way you look. Either front offices are too impatient to have their prospect QBs "set the world on fire" right away, or talent scouts have seriously goofed up their jobs not to pick up red flags.

The fact you have Sam Howell in this is ridiculous. He was a 5th round pick, & has already outplayed his draft position & has only started 1 season & only been in the league for 2 seasons.

When a QB does well, it’s because he’s in a good system. When he does badly, it’s because he’s a bad player. That’s the logic of people who claim so many QBs are system QBs

[@g.d.graham2446]

2:49 Not even that familiar with this story, but damn that made me laugh xD

[@blakebrown84]

The 2022 draft class was absolutely the worst quarterback class that year. Also, they were one of the least impressive quarterback classes. It was Kenny Pickett, Malik Willis, Desmond Ridder.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

[@kylescott9529]

I remember in the offseason leading up the 2022 draft how like right after the combine, there was a FLURRY of moves between teams trading for QBs. Sure that's a great time for GMs to chat about trades. But part me of thinks they got a taste of the prospects up close and went "Nope. Absolutely not gonna rely on that.". I have hope for my Commmanders though since Snyder is gone! Which....probably will make it more painful if the pick fails. But I guess I don't have to go into the pick knowing it will fail.

[@idawg7332]

It's hilarious that the last 2 qbs taken are the only ones who have playoff experience and that the final pick is the only one who made a superbowl

[@chewydewok]

It's saying something when the last guy picked in the draft has seen the most success so far of your QB class.

2013 and 2007 were worse

[@Awesometrax]

Agreed. Brock alone makes the 2022 QB class better than those two.

[@spencerkunde1615]

​@Awesometrax yup. And Geno Smith put the 2013 class above the 2007 class. 2007 is by far the worst

[@worldsgreatestdude1784]

2010 gets forgotten about by most in it also being ass. Sam Bradford was so underwhelming and everyone else beside him and Colt McCoy did nothing.

[@Awesometrax]

@worldsgreatestdude1784 Trent Edwards, Brady Quinn, Kevin Kolb, John Beck, Drew Stanton, Jeff Rowe, Troy Smith, Jordan Palmer and Tyler Thigpen. Plus one of the biggest draft busts ever and well, let's just say I would take both Purdy and Geno Smith over any of them.

[@e2rqey]

its almost like all the good QBs try to declare the same year so that they have a better chance of going to a team thats not a complete mess.

[@laurenmp7486]

Brock Purdy shows that even competent scouts can get it massively wrong underestimating what someone is capable of. Also, it's nice to see him do so well cause honestly, a QB being picked last is almost mean in a way. When QBs picked in the fifth round don't make the roster, picking one last, that's kinda harsh. But every team but the 49ers totally screwed up, and they left him til the last pick of the draft. Also kudos to Shanahan to actually giving him a chance and not treating him as someone who's getting cut the first day of roster cuts.

[@kylewood4488-b9r]

Shanahan stated that Brock won QB3 over Nate Sudfeld despite them already paying him to be QB3. Just shows that they are willing to lose money to take chances. One interesting piece of information I saw was that he Brock is extremely competitive and hardworking. That alone says alot. Usually when players make it to the NFL they act like they have made it and don't need practice because their athletic ability and talent will carry them. That is partially true but at the same time if they want to ever win a Superbowl or last a long time in the NFL they will have to practice alot and give effort rather than rely purely on instict or athletic ability.

[@charliecushman9193]

It’s the system

[@frenchfrey65]

Hindsight being 20/20, I'm glad the Packers picked Jordan Love more than ever now, 3 years later Stroud and Lawrence are still the only decent QB's to come out of these 1st rounds, and imo, has cemented the idea that the NFL overvalues QB's and need to take notes on the how the Packers did it. The Packers sat and developed 2 QB's in a row, 1 is a future HoF, the other is turning out well. Teams need to re-evaluate how to find a starting QB, because they can't just keep going after 1st rounders and expect magic like CJ Stroud. Some teams like the 49ers can get lucky in a Mr. Irrelevant but that doesn't happen to everyone. I remember the days where teams took Free Agent gambles by either signing another team's backup or trading for another team's backup after they either sat for a few years or showed promise filling in for a starter one year. Look at all the Favre Effect QB's, Mark Brunell, Aaron Brooks, Matt Hasselback, all 3 turned in SOLID careers at QB for other teams while Favre did his thing. There's more than 1 way to get a starting QB, and teams need to stop looking at what round they were picked in (or if they were picked at all), or how they got the job, and start building around the guy they have.

[@johnchedsey1306]

2013's QB class was atrocious, too. EJ Manuel? Trying to think of other people from it and can't think of a single name. Since I'm a Seattle fan, I do hope that Howell still has some potential to development. If he made it through last year's sackfest without getting PTSD like David Carr, he has a shot to be...decent. But he seems pretty dang tough. But other than Purdy, it does seem like this was just a draft class of future backups. And 2023 did prove a good backup is valuable.

[@ForelliBoy]

Speaking of Seattle and the 2013 draft class, who was the Seahawks' QB1 last season again

[@MustacheDLuffy]

The only qb in 2013 was Geno Smith

[@worldsgreatestdude1784]

2022 & 2013 were even worse than 2021. You completely forgot about how bad 2013 was. The best QBs drafted were Geno Smith & EJ MANUEL!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@ErikCB912]

I’d argue 2007 and 2010 were just as bad if not worse. 2007 was Jamarcus Russell, Brady Quinn, Kevin Kolb, and John Beck. 2010 was Sam Bradford, Jimmy Clausen, Tim Tebow, Colt McCoy

0:29 - seeing Tree getting drunk there. That's all I came here for.

[@MisterMonsterMan]

No other sport gives up on the young guys as quickly as they do in pro football. Many of these guys, even the high picks, have no business seeing the field for the first season or 2 after their draft. The development structure is dead.

[@TheMILVSCR]

I might get some shit for saying this, but I'm so damn excited to get Cousins starting for us. Even if we're terrible this coming season (again), at least we have a decent starter with a little more consistency. We haven't been right since 28-3, but I feel a little less shitty knowing that Shanahan can now get a little more blame. Let's go Captain Kirk?! 😂

[@minecraftjunky2001]

This is a minor detail, but don't expect Zappe to be in New England next season. He was fairly combative with Jones, that's not what you're looking for with a rookie QB coming in. Brisette and the rookie will make the roster and someone you've never heard of will probably be the practice squad QB

[@WastelandWanderer1216]

Just getting onto a NFL team made Bailey Zappe a local hero alongside some other people from where I live that got onto NFL teams.

[@mattsui9492]

I think ridder, howell and corral got unlucky bc they have potential but went to teams that didn't bother to develop them.

[@InterloperBob]

Ryan Tannehill was never benched for anyone in Tennessee. Willis played some mop up duty in a blowout in 2022. He got starts later because Tannehill got injured and missed the KC game and a few others. Levis got the start in Atlanta in 2023 because Tannehill was hurt again, and he won the job.

[@weregretohio7728]

It's interesting to me how this is playing out in the NHL compared to the NFL. Sports are reactionary in general, but people are now like, "sometimes it takes players until they're 25 to develop!" while the NFL seems to get more and more rushed despite how much more obvious the difficulty curve is. And then you have teams like the Bears trading up for a guy like Kissing Titties. Make it make sense.

[@dirgofserb]

I feel like getting 1 decent starting QB in Purdy makes 2022 not the worst. I could be wrong, but I feel like there's been plenty of drafts where no one was above backup caliber.

[@OhHiSpencer]

Skyler actually made some GREAT plays in that playoff game and had a ton of drops, especially from Waddle.
