There are two states of being for NFL franchises. You either have a quarterback you’re happy with for the next 10 years or you’re looking for that guy.

As the 2010s draw to a close, the teams from that second group rarely found the positional peace they were seeking. Though more team and media attention is devoted to the draft than ever, finding a star signal caller remains more or less a crapshoot.

Nowhere is that more evident than a review of all 10 draft classes this decade when a total of 117 quarterbacks were plucked from the college ranks. Thirty of those men were selected in the first round, a position that would seem to convey a sense of confidence and certainty.

In reality, those picks have failed more often than not, especially in pursuit of the main goal. Indeed, only two quarterbacks drafted since 2010 have won the Super Bowl and both — Russell Wilson and Nick Foles — were drafted in the third round. (And in Foles’ case, the victory didn’t come until his second tour with the Philadelphia Eagles and after their first-round pick, Carson Wentz, was hurt for the season.)

Three more quarterbacks drafted in the 2010s reached the Super Bowl and lost — second-rounder Colin Kaepernick and top overall choices Cam Newton and Jared Goff.

Some of the failure can be attributed to the strong corps of elite quarterbacks that came of age last decade and refused to budge. Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger and the Manning brothers didn’t spread around many scraps and those they did were gobbled up by elite quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Wilson and, uh, Joe Flacco.

Yet if you look at the QB of the 2010s, you can’t identify any one signal caller who’s pulling a Dan Marino with a title-free career. Maybe Cam Newton comes the closest, but when Ryan Tannehill qualifies as “hey, not a bad pick!” on your evaluation of drafts past, you know that the strength of the field isn’t all that.

With a lot of the old guard set to walk off into the sunset, we’re sure to see some of the recently drafted quarterbacks step into the void and start winning Super Bowls. And who knows? Maybe Patrick Mahomes, Deshaun Watson and Lamar Jackson become the Peyton, Tom and Big Ben of the next 15 years.

But as we prepare to enter a new decade, we wanted to take a look back at the 30 quarterbacks drafted in the first round and put them in order of how well each pick turned out. Yes, some careers are still starting while others have already been over for a few years.

But let the following list serve as a reminder that good quarterbacks are hard to come by, even when you’re looking at a sample size that’s 10 years long.

30. Paxton Lynch (Denver Broncos, 2016, 26th pick): Jerry Jones said he “couldn’t sleep” after missing out on Lynch, but the Memphis product lasted only two seasons in Denver and started only four games before being cut. John Elway actually traded up to draft Lynch, who lost battles to Trevor Siemian, Chad Kelly and Kevin Hogan in his time as a Bronco.

29. Johnny Manziel (Cleveland Browns, 2014, 22nd pick): The only good thing you can say about Manziel’s time in Cleveland was that he somehow wasn’t even the Browns’ worst first-round selection that year. CB Justin Gilbert, picked eighth overall, gets that honor.

28. Josh Rosen (Arizona Cardinals, 2018, 10th pick): The Browns, Jets and Bills might eventually really regret taking their quarterbacks in this draft ahead of Lamar Jackson. The Cardinals might not only have to do that, but also regret that their organization was such a mess that they also had to use the next year’s No. 1 pick on Kyler Murray. (No, we’re not the types to credit the Cardinals for cutting their losses on Rosen early.)

27. Mitchell Trubisky (Chicago Bears, 2017, 2nd pick): There are a lot of angry fans in Chicago who would argue this pick is 30th considering they not only traded away four picks to move up one spot to select a third-team All-ACC quarterback with 12 career starts but also passed on Deshaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes in the process of doing so. And we’re open to that argument. But until the book officially closes on Trubisky’s time in Chicago, he stays ahead of the three guys who posted total zeroes for their teams.
