    University of Nevada, Reno Quarterback Value Forecasting and Fixing the NFL Draft’s Market Failure A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Economics by Trevor M. Wojcik Dr. Mark Nichols/Thesis Advisor December, 2010 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by TREVOR MICHAEL WOJCIK entitled Quarterback Value Forecasting And Fixing The NFL Draft’s Market Failure be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Mark Nichols, Phd, Advisor Sankar Mukhopadhyay, Phd, Committee Member Rahul Bhargava, Phd, Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School December, 2010 i Abstract The National Football League (NFL) is a business that is worth nearly $7 billion annually in revenue. That makes it the largest money making sport in the United States. The revenue earned by each franchise is dependent upon the repeated success of the team. A commonly held belief is that for a franchise to be successful you must have an elite Quarterback. This thesis uses NFL data and for the 2000-2008 seasons to determine the role that Quarterback performance plays in team success. With the determination that Quarterbacks are important to NFL team success the question becomes how does a franchise effectively obtain the best player. The NFL player draft is the most commonly used method for teams to find their Quarterback of the future. The problem is that the success rate for drafting Quarterbacks is very low. In this thesis I have determined a more statistical approach to determining whether a drafted Quarterback will be successful.

Batch, a nine-year NFL veteran and Pittsburgh-area native, starts in place of BEN ROETHLISBERGER, who underwent an emergency appendectomy on Sunday. Batch aims to lead the Steelers to their fourth consecutive Kickoff Weekend victory in the club’s first game following its Super Bowl XL championship. Culpepper, making his first start as a member of the Dolphins, can make history in 2006 by being the first player to lead both the AFC and NFC in touchdown passes for a season. Below is a team-by-team look at the men who will play quarterback in the AFC in 2006: BALTIMORE: Acquired in a June trade with Tennessee, STEVE MC NAIR leads the Ravens’ offense. In the past 10 seasons, McNair (153) stands second among active AFC starting quarterbacks in touchdown passes (PEYTON MANNING, 244). The three-time All-Star needs 2,859 passing yards and 61 rushing yards to become only the third player in history to throw for 30,000 yards and rush for 3,500, joining Pro Football Hall of Famers FRAN TARKENTON and STEVE YOUNG.

    1 Drafting the Best Future NFL Quarterback Decision Making in A

    Drafting the Best Future NFL Quarterback Decision Making in a Complex Environment Final Project Nick Besh Steve Ellis October 18, 2004 Anyone who has followed the NFL draft knows that drafting a Quarterback in the first round is a hit or miss proposition. Successful college prospects, many who are under classmen fail to go on and have the same success as professionals. There are the “cant- miss” prospects who do go one to become Pro Bowl QB’s, but just as many are total busts. It would appear as if the selection is nothing more than a crap-shoot. Drafting is all about priorities and alternatives. Given that, there must be a way to quantify all of the stats and “gut feelings” of players to select a future NFL star. The description of the NFL draft problem would appear to be a perfect candidate for a complex ratings model using the SuperDecisions software. Analyzing the problem further lead us to our stated goal: Optimize a high selection in the NFL draft by drafting a solid contributor to your team, if not a Pro-Bowl caliber player while at the same time avoiding the selection of a player who can set your franchise back years. This is a critical decision that does not leave much room for error. To achieve our goal, thorough research of all the criteria that would need to be considered when drafting a QB would need to be analyzed. This process led us to nine top level criteria: 1 1. Strength of college experience: Just how valuable was the players experience at this level to his future success? • Sub Criteria: College (big/small), college winning percentage, college years started.
