– Per MOS:CAPS and WP:NCCAPS, reserve caps for proper names. To the extent that these can be found in sources, they're typically lowercase. Dicklyon (talk) 05:43, 17 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support, for the same reasons I supported this one. Tony (talk) 06:01, 17 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Comment No opinion on the capital letters, but sources seem to use "Quarterback draft" as well as "QB draft", and the former seems preferable. 162 etc. (talk) 18:35, 17 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I agree. AAF quarterback draft looks best; n-gram stats show "quarterback draft" lowercase only, and no "QB draft", but those pre-date the AAF topic. Dicklyon (talk) 03:40, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Support, but prefer "quarterback" over "QB" per above discussion (which seems to be making a WP:COMMONAME argument) but also per MOS:ABBR and WP:PRECISE, WP:RECOGNIZABLE (do not presume that every WP reader is intimately familar with the abbreviated terminology of American gridiron football). — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 09:00, 20 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
