How many of the teams in playoff position today are ones that the QB is with their original team and drafted in the first round?
NE - no.
DEN - no
KC - no
CIN - no (Dalton was a second-rounder IIRC)
IND - yes
6th seed? - who cares, they're all 5-6.
SEA - no (Wilson not a first-rounder)
NO - no
ARI - no
DET - yes
DAL - no
CAR - yes
Maybe drafting an elite QB 1-1 isn't the magic tonic some people think.

only magic if you get it right, but better chance of getting it right if you take the best prospect out of the group
