How successful are quarterbacks drafted in Round 1?

With the New York Giants still in the quarterback market, I am updating a series of posts I did last year looking at the success rates of quarterbacks drafted on Day 1, Day and Day 3 of the NFL Draft.

Today, we look at Round 1. The bulk of this post appeared on Big Blue View prior to the 2024 NFL Draft. It has been updated to reflect another year’s worth of data.

We have often talked about the hit rate, the percentage of time NFL teams get it right when drafting a quarterback in Round 1, being somewhere between 30-40%.
