No. 1 overall picks Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence and Bengals' Joe Burrow share bond with Urban Meyer

Joe Burrow and Trevor Lawrence each had a unique journey on the way to becoming a No. 1 overall draft pick and franchise quarterback.

In the span of about four months in 2019, Burrow went from a midtier quarterback prospect to the slam dunk choice for the Cincinnati Bengals at the top of the 2020 NFL draft.

Lawrence, on the other hand, was a phenomenon long before he went to Clemson, where he lived up to the billing of being one of the country's top prospects, which was codified when the Jacksonville Jaguars drafted him first overall last April.
