Question
Kansas City traded up to select Patrick Mahomes -- the first quarterback chosen in the first round by that franchise since Todd Blackledge in 1983. With that Mahomes pick in the books, what are the only other two teams that have gone over 25 years without selecting a quarterback in the first round?
Answer
Saints and Cowboys. With New Orleans, they selected Dave Wilson in the 1981 supplemental draft (using their first-round pick from the regular 1982 draft). Previously they used the No. 2 pick in 1971 on Archie Manning. With Dallas, it selected Troy Aikman and Steve Walsh in 1989 (chosen Walsh in the supplemental, forfeiting their choice in the 1990 regular draft).
