After a banner 2024 NFL draft in which six quarterbacks were drafted in the first 12 picks, the 2025 QB conversation has been dominated by just two passers -- Miami's Cam Ward and Colorado's Shedeur Sanders. How do they rank among recent first-round signal-callers?
To answer that question, I stacked the 19 passers who were taken in Round 1 from 2020 through 2024 and then dropped Ward and Sanders -- the only first-round quarterbacks in my most recent mock draft -- into the mix. That conversation covers the likes of Joe Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, Bryce Young and Caleb Williams.
