It's very important as their are no good QBs with weak arms. It goes hand in hand with being accurate. You can't lack either or you aren't a good NFL QB

I disagree, there are some. It isn't common but it happens.

Brees is still elite despite having relatively poor arm strength over the last several years. Eli and Peyton both had below average arm strength their entire careers, and Peyton set records in Denver with a noodle arm.

Elite quarterbacks have elite arm strength and accuracy. Teams are just of the notion (probably correctly so) that you can teach accuracy but not arm strength.
