'This is a franchise where quarterbacks go to die,' Boomer said. (And no, he wasn't talking about the Jets.)
Esiason played 14 years in the NFL during the 1980s and 90s -- nine with the Cincinnati Bengals, three with the New York Jets and one with the Arizona Cardinals before returning to the Bengals for a one-year stint.
He received four Pro-Bowl selections, one All-Pro team and the NFL MVP award in 1988 on his way to throwing 37,920 yards and 247 touchdowns. The Bears have drafted 31 quarterbacks in the Super Bowl era, expending six first-round picks at the position in the same time frame. Justin Fields, Mitch Trubisky, Rex Grossman, Cade McNown, Jim Harbaugh and Jim McMahon represent the five quarterbacks taken on Day 1.
