Happy Draft Day! Are you going to be watching the Kevin Cosner movie today too? That movie is not good but I can’t help but love it.

Trivia: The 2024 NFL Draft is live from Detroit at 8pm on ESPN. The NFL draft arguably has the biggest immediate impact on any of the four major sports:

  • The NHL and MLB draft picks typically require a couple of years before they are ready to compete in the top leagues

  • The NBA draft has a big impact, but it is heavily weighted towards the top 5 to 10 picks each year

  • The NFL draft picks can immediately impact a team’s season (look at the Texans and OROY C.J. Stroud from last year) and because rookie contracts are low, they can greatly influence a team’s salary cap

There are rumors that a record-tying 6 QBs could be taken in the first round including 4 in the top 10 picks.

The drama will likely start after the first pick, where the Bears are likely selecting USC QB, Caleb Williams. The Commanders are expected to select a QB and are deciding between Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye, and J.J. McCarthy.

Which one of these QBs was NOT selected 1st OR 2nd overall?
