	New and Interesting Idea... I've never thought about this type of quiz before

	prockstar83:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 04:37 GMT		6 points
	I think it's amazing that Tom Tupa was drafted in 1988 in the 3rd round as a QB, didn't make it, was cut, and reinvented himself as a punter that lasted in the NFL until 2006. That's remarkable.

	Well, not new. It is just the full history version of this published quiz of the more recent ones: http://www.sporcle.com/games/swifty383/qbdraft

	I only get Dan Mcgwire on these quizzes cause of his bigger, stronger, faster, (record brea...well to be determined at a later date) brother

	1957 is spelled wrong. 1956 was not drafted as a QB. 1948 is wrong, there was a QB taken before him. 1947 there was a QB taken with the 6th pick. 1946 wrong, there was a QB taken with 1st pick. 1941 not drafted as a QB. 1940 not drafted as a QB. 1937 not drafted as a QB, Sammy Baugh was first QB drafted. 1936 not drafted as a QB. Good quiz, and the earlier years I understand a lot of guys were drafted as just plain backs and did everything. I enjoyed it and never would have known the better in the early years if I hadn't researched it.

	I understand that some players were drafted just as backs, but once you get to 1944 players were starting to be drafted as QBs, also look at the links

	First off, very nice catch that the Boston Patriots weren't re-named "New England" until after the 1971 draft had taken place. Well done. However, I'm not sure about how much sense it makes to say that Bernie Kosar was the top pick of the 1985 draft, since he was taken in the supplemental draft after the regular draft had already happened. I am sure that it doesn't make sense to list him as the 29th player taken, since the Browns used a pick from the next season's draft to select him in the supplemental draft. He wasn't the 29th player taken in any draft, or in any sense at all, really.

	In '63, there were two other QB's drafted ahead of the one you have listed. #1 and #39 were both drafted as QB's, however only #39 actually played as a QB.

	Korn2800:	Feb 12th, 2013 at 15:35 GMT		3 points
	@Theron, I was actually going to put an asterisk by Kosar if somebody brought it up and since you have, I will change that @Jaysee, I will change that to the #1 pick, the first source I saw said he was only listed as the back

	About 25 teams are kicking themselves for letting Tom Brady be the seventh picked QB.

	I got King Hill by guessing Shaun Hill. I can't tell which is stranger: that I guessed Shaun Hill or that someone was named King Hill.

	ianmez:	Feb 14th, 2013 at 23:43 GMT		1 point
	@EpicWinFTW: follow up research leaves me devastated that his given name was Stuart, and his middle King. I was hoping his middle name would have been Oliver or Oscar or something with potential for huge awesome.

	Very nice quiz. Please check spelling on 1944 answer.
