QBs Drafted in First Round Last 10 years



2001- Michael Vick (#1 overall) Next qb taken was Drew Brees with the first pick of the second round.
2002- David Carr (#1 overall)-bust. Somehow still in the league as a back-up.
Joey Harrington- bust. Overrated in college. Remember Oregon's Heisman campaign for him.
Patrick Ramsey- somehow still in the league.
2003- Carson Palmer (#1 overall)- would love to see him on a decent team next year.
Bryon Leftwich- injured, alot. Still, don't think he would have been a great one anyway.
Kyle Boller- the reason that some teams stayed away from Aaron Rodgers.
Rex Grossman- When "Sexy Rexy", he was good. More often, he was "Gross, man!"
2004- Eli Manning (#1 overall)- even with JP Losman, 2004 was very good year for first round QBs.
Philip Rivers
Ben Rothleisberger (sp?)
J.P. Losman
2005-Alex Smith (#1 Overall)- bad, bad pick, and I said it back then!
Aaron Rodgers- Has won as many Super Bowls as Favre has for Green Bay!
Jason Campbell- still in the league
2006-Vince Young- I still think he is a winner. But, hard to defend him with his off the field shit. Where will he play next year.
Matt Leinart- ah, chicks seem to like him.
Jay Cutler- Bears: "Jay is our quarterback."
2007-JaMarcus Russell (#1 Overall!?!?) Vomit. Drafted largely because of 1 good game against a crappy Notre Dame team! BAD.
Brady Quinn-Speaking of Notre Dame! When Cleveland gives up on you.....
2008-Matt Ryan- nice pick!
Joe Flacco- I know HM doesn't like him, but very serviceable.
2009-Matthew Stafford- better than Joey Harrington. Injury prone thus far.
Mark Sanchez- Have to give him some credit for his playoff success in his first two years.
Josh Freeman- I bashed this pick when it was made and he has been pretty darn good. So maybe Vikings fans should take some delight in my bashing of Christian Ponder- b/c I don't know shit.
2010-Sam Bradford (#1 Overall) Nice job as a rookie.
Tim Tebow-the jury is still out. But better than Brady Quinn!!

Definition of Damning with faint praise: "Better than Joey Harrington."
