List Of Every First Overall NFL Draft Pick

On Thursday night, another promising college football player will earn the honor of being the first-overall pick in the NFL Draft.
In the 2017 NFL Draft — which takes place outdoors in Philadelphia — it is believed that the Cleveland Browns are leaning towards Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett, while North Carolina quarterback Mitch Trubisky has also been in the discussion.
But since this is the draft, there could always be a last-minute shakeup that leaves everyone surprised.
