How many times we've had the 1st overall pick?

Mari0k · 03-10-2008, 08:24 PM

And who have we've picked?

xxAQUA JOSHUAxx · 03-10-2008, 08:26 PM

im pretty sure this is our first time with the #1 pick

Nublar7 · 03-10-2008, 08:29 PM

First time with the #1 overall pick since the merger. We had the #1 and #2 overall selection in the 1966 AFL draft.

#1 pick is exciting, but dissapointing to see on our history.

Let's trade down and cover it up.

Once, and it was in 1996.

Bills have had it four times since the merger and five times overall. The Patriots have also had it four times since the merger and five times overall.

Dolfan81 · 03-11-2008, 02:05 AM

since this is our 1st time, is there any other team who has never had the 1st overall pick?

FinsFan619 · 03-11-2008, 02:17 AM

one i believe and I hope it will be the last.

I don't believe the Packers have ever had the pick. I think their highest was #2 in '89 when they picked Tony Mandarich. I don't know that the Steelers ever have either.

The Packers had the #1 in 1957 and 1959 and Pittsburgh drafted QB Terry Bradshaw #1 in 1970.

From what I can see the only teams that never had a #1 are Denver, Seattle, Jacksonville (expansion) and Carolina (expansion).

Nah, they had it back to back in '96 & '97; Parcells traded out his first year in '97.

The highest before now and 2005 was the 4th overall in 67.

Didn't Seattle win 2 games in like '92 or '93. I'd think they would have had the first pick after that season

EDIT: New England and Seattle both won 2 games in '92. Pats picked Bledsoe, Seahawks picked Mirer.

Man, I miss those days when the AFC had cupcakes like that

SpaceMountain16 · 03-11-2008, 02:41 PM

Carolina went 1-15 the Texans expansion year, so they got the number two pick and picked Peppers. Even though they were the worst team.

SuperBankz · 03-11-2008, 03:18 PM

out of the last 10 years the manning brothers and maybe palmer are the only two really worth it... williams is starting to prove it as well
