Trey Lance and Mac Jones both started 17, I think. Lance all against weak opposition. ( I’m hoping the Niners draft Lance, btw) I don’t think the number of starts is an issue. But his injury history, otoh, does.
Mark Sanchez (16), Cam Newton (14), Mitch Trubisky (13), Dwayne Haskins (14), and Kyler Murray (14) some other notable round 1 QBs with few starts under their belts.
Hard to judge Haskins & Murray so far, although I'd say so far that's 1 good (Murray) 1 question mark (Haskins). But of the first three only one (Newton) wasn't a complete bust. Call it 50%. That's probably consistent with other first-round QBs.
