Going through the last 11 NFL Drafts, we have seen 29 quarterbacks drafted in the first round. The first two selections of the 2015 draft were both quarterbacks, Jameis Winston went first to Tampa Bay and was an underclassman. Marcus Mariota went No. 2 and was a senior.
In the 2016 draft, quarterbacks again went one and two, with Jared Goff, who was an underclassman, going first, and Carson Wentz, who was a fifth-year senio,r going second. Later in the first round, Paxton Lynch, who was an underclassman, was selected by Denver.
Of those 29 players, only four have lived up to expectations.
