I'm biased, but I've got to say that the Browns have gotten a pretty good ROI for Myles Garrett. However, I'm open to debate.

Peyton Manning for the Colts is a strong contender.

Worst is Bo Jackson for Tampa Bay.

Sam Bowie - Portland is by far the worst.. even though that isn't the NFL.

Hall of Fame #1 Draft Picks 1970-
1970 - Terry Bradshaw - 4 Super Bowls
1976 - Lee Roy Selmon
1978 - Earl Campbell
1983 - John Elway
1985 - Bruce Smith - 11 Pro Bowls
1989 - Troy Aikman - 3 Super Bowls
1997 - Orlando Pace
1998 - Peyton Manning - 5 MVP - 14 Pro Bowls - 2 Super Bowls

MG has a good shot at the Hall of Fame, but only 5 Pro Bowls so far.. so I'd put Bruce Smith above him..

Peyton is #1 and it isn't really all that close imo.

I hate to say it, but nobody had an impact like Joe Burrow

Why would any production outside of the rookie contract have anything to do with the draft?

No way. It would be a qb. Peyton, Cam, Eli, Stafford, Burrow all ahead of him.

Peyton, absolutely. Eli? Probably, so far. The others, especially freaking Burrow? No way. At least, not yet.

Bowie was #2 behind Olajuwon, but I agree with your premise.

You pretty much have to default to this one for technical reasons lol. Bo was ticked at Culverhouse.

You mean Jamarcus Russell.

You know, the guy that ripped the Raiders off so bad he screwed every rookie to play in the league after him?

That guy is the worst.

Tampa Bay was just stupid and got what they were told they would get, nothing.

A Mississippi State fan talking about #1 overall picks is hilarious.

JaMarcus is seriously a contender for worst, but Bo never played a down for Tampa

Stafford has a superbowl and will likely retire as the highest paid football player in NFL history. The only #1 overall pick ahead of him in career passing yards is Manning.

Cam Newton is up there for the worst.

Von should have been #1 and made him pay for it
