Question

What’s the only team in the last 50 years that’s had a quarterback finish with top-10 numbers (standard scoring), then used the No. 1 overall pick the next season on a quarterback? This team was in a total rebuild, with a new coach (that’s a hint).

Answer

Dallas Cowboys. Steve Pelluer in 1988 finished with the 5th-best quarterbacking numbers, but Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson came in, selecting Troy Aikman No. 1 overall. A few other quarterbacks have ranked 15th to 19th in production (again, with standard fantasy scoring), then taken quarterbacks No. 1. That includes Steve Young (Bucs, 1986), Jon Kitna (Bengals, 2002) and Justin Fields (Bears, 2023).
