NFL Draft ’12 is over and for 5th time QB’s go 1st and 2nd..who’s going to be the star?!?!!!?

O.k. friends its over, #1 pick by Indianapolis Colts QB – Andrew Luck and last pick #253 by same team QB Chandler Harnish. So what do we now know, that for the fifth time, quarterbacks were taken 1st and 2nd in the NFL Draft.

2012 – 1st Andrew Luck – Indy / 2nd Robert Griffin III – Washington

1999 – 1st Tim Couch – Cleveland/2nd Donovan McNabb – Philly / 3rd Akili Smith – Cincy

1998 – 1st Peyton Manning – Indy /2nd Ryan Leaf – San Diego

1993 – 1st Drew Bledsoe – New England/2nd Rick Mirer – Seattle

1971 – 1st Jim Plunkett – Boston /2nd Archie Manning – New Orleans /Dan Pastorini – Houston

So as history as shown us when QB’s are drafted in the same round and especially 1 and 2 success is limited to one of the QB’s. But history is about to be turned around both Luck & Griffin III will be able to reach the 80 games started plateau and with success!!!
