I decided to undertake an interesting endeavor. I'm going to rank the QBs from each draft from 2000-2010. For this experiment each QB must have at least 16 starts. I will grade based off of performance only, not wins. Let's go!
Chad Pennington #18 Overall to the NY Jets
Chad has had a tough career lately, but he had some flashes of greatness with the Jets. How does he stack up?
Career Numbers:
81 Starts
1632/2471 Comp/Att
66% Comp
17,832 Yards
102 TDs
64 INTs
90.1 QB Rating
Averages:
20/30 66% 220 Yards 1.25 TDs .79 INTs
Marc Bulger # 168 Overall to the New Orleans Saints
Bulger proved to be a solid starter in the NFL despite falling to pick 168, how does he stack up?
Career Numbers
95 Starts
1969/3171 Comp/Att
62.1% Comp
22,814 Yards
122 TDs
93 INTs
84.4 QB Rating
Averages:
21/33 62.1% 240 Yards 1.28 TDs .98 INTs
Tom Brady #199 Overall to the New England Patriots
One of the best QBs of all time, do his numbers stack up?
143 Starts
2996/4710 Comp/Att
63.6 Comp%
34,744 Yards
261 TDs
103 INTs
95.2 QB Rating
Averages:
21/33 63.6% 243 Yards 1.83 TDs .72 INTs
Out of a weak QB class, 3 solid starters emerged. What do the stats show?
1. Tom Brady
2. Chad Pennington
3. Marc Bulger
There you have it folks. The only 3 QBs that mattered in the 2000 NFL Draft ranked. Brady has the yardage of Bulger, the INT % of Pennington, and he crushes both with TDs. If you're in a pass happy offense, take Bulger, if you're in a conservative offense, take Pennington. If you're looking for the best QB in the 2000 NFL Draft, take Brady.
