Most measurements of draft efficiency or effectiveness start and stop in increments of 32.I don't normally do this type of post but I have to ask - where are these numbers you speak of? Because most of the things I've read say that this is simply not true. The success rate of all players drafted in the first round is not that high and it gets worse when you limit that to QBs.
festy is right;
but you will likely never see an analysis that lays that hit rate out as a smooth line from pick 1 to say: 96.……,
The numbers don't lie. Statistically the higher you pick the better the player is.
they will just tell you that 1st rounders have a 40-50% chance of a career. 2d rndrs 30-40; 3rd round 20-30 etc …. (note: these % are just my WAGs - don’t shoot me for admittedly making **** up).
