That’s a function of the sport and system Roger Goodell has built… having a good QB for cheap now is overpowered…
The first round rookie contracts need to go to a percentage of the top of the positional average. If you draft a QB 1st overall, you have to pay him 75% of the average of the top 5 salaries of the position… that percentage goes down as the first two rounds of the draft go on. After the second round, there are no rookie contracts

How does that have anything to do with Roger Goodell?

The money that you're saving in the cap coupled with the cap expanding nearly every year means that you'll be able to snag some solid FAs and/or retain other talent on your team unlike years past when 1st rd QBs got veteran money immediately.
The opposite of this is the Packers' system of drafting a QB and having them wait 2-3 years before getting the starting role but by then they're nearly done with their rookie contract. Packers' are in a good place right now but you're reliant on your scouting department to deliver on the QB.
