The quarterbacks are coming! The quarterbacks are coming! Friday at the Combine is typically the day that the quarterbacks meet with the media and that’s true today as well. The difference this year than many others is that a group of five (or six depending on your love of Oklahoma State quarterback Mason Rudolph) will step to the podium with a shot to go in the first round. Sam Darnold, Lamar Jackson, Baker Mayfield, Josh Rosen and Josh Allen could end up making some history come the last week in April.
Since the fabled 1983 Elway-Kelly-Marino draft when six quarterbacks were selected in the first round, only one draft class (1999) has produced five quarterbacks in the first round.
