The Pittsburgh Steelers Will Trade Justin Fields to the San Francisco 49ers

The NFL Draft is where teams find the future superstars who will guide the franchise for years to come. While talent can be found throughout the entire draft, certain expectations come with being a first-round pick. Especially when it pertains to quarterbacks. A QB selected in the first round is expected to guide their team to the playoffs and eventually the Super Bowl. Some have panned out while others struggled to find success. 33 quarterbacks were selected in the first round from 2014 to 2023 (recent 2024 draftees not included as they haven’t played yet). Here’s how they stack up against one another:

There were several shocking trades made at this year's MLB trade deadline, but none were more surprising than the Chicago Cubs trading for Isaac Paredes. Chicago acquiring an All-Star days after they said they were looking toward the future was surprising enough, but the fact that Chicago included Christopher Morel in the deal was even more surprising.

If you ever needed more proof that the Kansas City Chiefs were inevitable, look at last season. Even when the offense was at their worst in the regular season, they still managed to lock in and get on the same page during the playoffs and won their third Super Bowl in the last five seasons. The fear this offseason was that the Chiefs would get better roster-wise in the offseason.
