In the 2015 NFL draft, something remarkable happened, and it went mostly unnoticed. Teams drafted the fewest number of quarterbacks in more than 60 years. Sixty.
Seven quarterbacks were drafted. According to Pro-Football-Reference.com (via Bleacher Report's Brad Gagnon), that's the fewest since 1954. Subtract four...subtract five...carry the one. Yeppers, that's 61 damn years.
It's obviously impossible to tell where this quarterback class will rank in terms of ability. It's clear, however, where it will rank in depth. This is one of the lightest QB drafts of all time.

This could mean something, or it could not, but people I speak to around the league think it's a harbinger of things to come.
