I have never said Kyle can win with any QB and if I understand correctly, only a couple of those guys were personally selected by him. I don't think anyone was expecting CJ or BDN to be franchise guys. With this #3 pick we're talking about a guy who is expected to be THE guy.
I gotta say this as well, the W-L column doesn't tell the entire story for each QB. For example CJ is not a franchise QB but he out performed any QB selected after him except Mullens. He even outperformed another QB picked ahead of him from a league standpoint. Some of that was because if injuries to Jimmy of course. Some games Were 20+ or 30+ pt games and the opposition scored above that. Ridiculous. Different talent on teams obviously affects this. Mac can win with Kyle, all he has to do is execute Kyle's system. Jimmy does relatively well when healthy but he still misses plays constantly.
Kyle still put up some pretty great stats for all those guys despite their monster limitations and expectations. He got more out of every one of them than anyone and THAT is why he believes in his system. So whomever he picks, we already know he's going to get the most out of. And whomever he picks, he's going to believe gives him the best option to maximize his offense.
