I know there was a thread about this a couple years ago, but I can't find it. There are three for me that I never understood why they were such high picks:

Blaine Gabbert
Mitch Trubisky
Zack Wilson (I know he still has time to develop)

On the other hand, I thought Josh Allen was going to be a bust, but he looks pretty damn good.

Who do ya'll have?

Yeah, I have no idea what GMs were thinking here

The 2011 draft had some laughably bad QBs drafted very high

Tebow and Manziel were both reaches and easy to predict as busts
