NFL Draft Your quarterback-drafting trivia quiz of the week. - Page 2

**Rain Man** · 06:53 PM

In preparation for the 2017 NFL Annual player selection process, I have a quarterback drafting quiz for you.

Here are the background rules:

1. We're talking only about quarterbacks.
2. We're talking about the 47 drafts from 1970 through 2016, nothing before that.
3. For Questions 1 through 3, I'm just taking raw numbers, regardless of how long a franchise has been around. For Questions 4 through 6, for franchises that didn't exist all 47 years, I scaled up their picks to a 47-year extrapolated total.
4. When I talk about draft points, I assume that the pick occurred in the middle of the round and didn't track the actual selection spot. So all first-round picks are the same value, all second-round picks are the same value, etc.
5. I assumed that any pick beyond the 8th round is an 8th round pick, because why not?
6. I sum by franchise. So the Titans include the Oilers, the Rams include all of their various cities, etc. So answer by team name, not city name.

Ready? Here's your quiz.

1. Two franchises have invested in 6 first-round QBs since 1970. Name them. Titans/Oilers and Colts

2. Three teams have invested in only 1 first-round pick since 1970. Three have existed since 1970, and one is newer. Name them. Texans, Cowboys, Saints.

3. Only 1 team has invested 8 or more picks since 1970 in the 1st or 2nd round on QBs. What team? Jets.

4. Regardless of the round taken, what three teams have drafted the most QBs since 1970? Bengals 32, Packers 31, Bears 27

5. Regardless of the round taken, what three teams have drafted the fewest QBs since 1970? Jaguars (15 when scaled up), Saints 17, Seahawks, Vikings, Panthers - 18 with scaling.

6. Including draft point values (see Rule 4 above), what three teams have invested the most draft points on QBs since 1970?

7. Including draft point values (see Rule 4 above), what three teams have invested the fewest draft points on QBs since 1970?

8. Where do the Chiefs rank among the 32 franchises in terms of total draft points invested?

9. What is the average number of quarterbacks drafted per 46 years of existence in the NFL? 23

10, How many total quarterbacks have been drafted by the Chiefs since 1970? 21

Thought that was Collins was a 2nd rounder but I stand corrected.

Three of the four, definitely.

Nope, not the Panthers.

I admit that I'm curious about it, but not brave enough to ask.

**Rain Man** · 04-25-2017, 03:35 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm showing the Rams as the fourth team. I don't see anyone other than Sam Bradford, but that team keeps moving, which makes me manually update the data.

AssEaterChief · 04-25-2017, 03:44 PM

The Rams would have been an excellent choice until they drafted Jared Goff last year

kccrow · 04-25-2017, 04:08 PM

Question 2 is wrong. No team has only invested 1st round picks in the QB position since 1970.

AssEaterChief · 04-25-2017, 04:16 PM

10. 20 total drafted Qbs by the Chiefs since 1970...

2- 1st rounders
2- 2nd rounders
2- 3rd rounders
3- 4th
2- 5th
4- 7th
1- 10th
1- 11th
1- 12th
and 2 in the 13th round

kccrow · 04-25-2017, 04:17 PM

Question 3 is the New York Jets with 9.

Although there are a few teams with 7.

Don't shame me in front of my people.

I meant only 1 pick in the first round.

Oh, dang. I corrected it but forgot to refresh the pivot table. Remove the Rams from the list.

We know it's not the Chiefs

What's your ninth? That's my team, but I'm showing 4 1sts and 4 2nds.

1st round
Mark Sanchez
Chad Pennington
Ken O'Brien
Richard Todd

2nd round
Christian Hackenberg
Geno Smith
Kellen Clemens
Browning Nagle

The Jets are not good at drafting quarterbacks, by the way.
