Factoring in the crappy team aspect and realizing it's hard for one guy to turn a team around. AND that your success and stats depend on that of your team? Seems high. Lot of #1 picks turn teams around. Elway, Manning, other Manning. But many don't. Mayfield. That long haired stringy kid from Clemson who went to Jacksonville and the next greatest thing.

I am too lazy to look it up, but does it mostly have to do with going to a shitty team off the bat and then ultimately getting traded to another shitty team, or a team that just recently had a major QB retire or leave a burned out program?
Heres another list of HOFers by draft pick.
For the #3 it was 12 guys since 1936 draft. (16.9%) Not sure how many NFL teams there were back then lol. 6? 😂
