Every year in April, all 32 NFL teams gather in some major city and conduct a draft of the graduating college players. 224 players will be picked over 7 rounds, and then just as many players will be signed as free agents. Each franchise employs numerous scouts, coaches, and draft experts to determine which players will be successful in the pros. Sometimes their draft picks do in fact work out, but sometimes they are dismal failures. To get the #1 pick overall, that means the team must have finished last in the league in the previous season. So when a team picks 1st overall, they are theoretically getting the best college player in the nation. How well do you know your NFL #1 overall draft picks? The whistle has blown. Let's get started!
