What Happened To Every #1 Pick From The 2010’s

Today we find out what actually happened to every NFL #1 draft pick from 2010-2024. Some of these draft picks turned out great for the respective teams that took them and others would turn into some of the biggest busts in NFL history. The Bears also have the #1 pick in the 2024 draft so we will have to see what they do with it. Maybe go with Caleb Williams, Marvin Harrison or someone nobody expects.

We covered the 2000’s draft picks now I think it’s time to head to the 2010s and see what those number one picks had to offer but we aren’t stopping there we’re also going to cover the 2020 so might as well get started 2010 the Rams had the

First pick and this team was absolutely trash for the three previous Seasons 2009 they finished 1 and 15 2008 2 and4 2007 3 and 13 somebody needed to save this team for these poor St Louis fans please what better position to do that than a brand new quarterback I mean they

Didn’t really have a choice though since Mark buer was 32 and that 1 in5 season they just had would be his last in the league Sam Bradford was the best available quarterback at the time that’s who the Rams decided to go with Bradford looked great in college but his time at

Oklahoma still left a lot of question marks for Scouts wasn’t due to anything he was doing wrong necessarily but his offensive line was so good in college that Bradford was rarely ever pressured so nobody knew if he was good at throwing on the run or would struggle making decisions quickly if his

Offensive line collapsed in the NFL still there was a ton of upside to be had there and his accuracy was Elite at the time in his first year you could definitely see the potential that he was showing throwing for over 3500 yards and 18 touchdowns there was a little issue

Throwing 15 interceptions but overall a great season winning offensive Rookie of the Year and turning the Rams team around leading them to a bit more respectable 7-9 record in comparison to previous Seasons if we’re being totally honest here I do think the Rams kind of ruined Bradford during his time there

Especially after year number one they didn’t have good protection for him at all the receivers were terrible and the only real good player that was on that offense was Steven Jackson combine that with Bradford’s ACL tear in week seven of the 2013 season it was a recipe for

Him to leave St Louis for good in 2015 Bradford ended up on the Eagles and while he had one of his best seasons yet the team only finished seven- n and you know how Philly fans can get okay any more than six losses forget about it

Pack your bags your can from the team also the Eagles went out and drafted Carson Wentz in 2016 so you know there was really no place for him on that team after that year the next year he found himself in Minnesota and this turned out to be his best season yet finishing the

Year leading the league inmet completion percentage along with having a 4 to1 touchdown to interception ratio unfortunately once again his efforts did not lead to a winning season and after numerous injuries during the 2017 season his time with the Vikings came to an end Bradford finished off his career with

The Cardinals after starting off the 2018 season 0 and3 after retiring from football he has been very focused on just being a great dad to his three children along with being inducted into the American Indian athletic Hall of Fame which celebrates his Cherokee Heritage and contributions to sports

Moving on to the 2011 Draft class this year was stacked I must say Bon Miller Patrick Peterson JJ Watt AJ Green Julio Jones I could go on and on for a while here but taken at number one was none other than Superman himself Cam Newton the Panthers took him after finishing

The previous season 2 and4 and it’s a damn good thing they did because it immediately started paying off for them cam finished year one making his first Pro Bowl and winning the offensive Rookie of the Year award after throwing for over 4,000 yards and rushing for a

Very impressive 14 touchdowns he was a different kind of runner at the time in comparisons in the 2000s we talked about Mike Vic being taken number one overall Vic was a Speedster who would break your ankles and run circles around you standing in at 6 ft tall cam on the

Other hand stands in at 6′ 5 in and 245 lbs this is a guy that will just straight up run you over if he really wants to not to mention how he would constantly jump over the goal line which was almost impossible to stop now 2013

Was the first time that cam led the Panthers to a positive record at 12 and four this was also his second Pro Bowl appearance even though they lost in the divisional round to the 49ers Carolina definitely had a lot of hope that their star player could eventually take them

Further on down the line that’s exactly what happened in 2015 when the Panthers finished that season with an incredible 15-1 record Newton threw for a career-high 35 touchdowns and added 10 more on the ground leading to him making his third Pro Bowl appearance winning the MVP award being named the offensive

Player of the year and making his lone All Pro appearance in the divisional round of those playoffs they made it by the Seahawks even though the offense fell completely flat in the second half cruised by the Cardinals in the NFC Championship round then lost the famous super Super Bowl to Payton Manning right

Before he retired cam later came out in interviews and podcast saying that he really just wanted the season to be over at that point and you could clearly tell he caused the Panthers three turnovers in that game the most costly one coming on a fumble which most of America thinks

He could have jumped on instead he decided to just look at it and the Broncos ended up recovering it and eventually winning that game now that season was the peak of Cam Newton’s career right there after that the Panthers could never replicate that same level of success or even really come

Close to it again they did make the playoffs once more in 2017 but lost in the first round to the Saints after trailing virtually the entire game after hurting his foot and missing nearly all of the 2019 season Newton became a free agent and signed with the Patriots since

They needed a replacement in the absence of Tom Brady he played pretty well rushing for 12 touchdowns and it looked like he might just stick around for a while in New England but belich and the Patriots decided to draft M Jones instead and once the season was about to

Begin they went with him cam then returned to the Panthers for one more season finishing with a starting record of 0o and five and that was the last time that he’s played in the NFL since then cam has been very busy off the field appearing on numerous different

Podcasts working on creating his own clothing line working on his own book and much more let’s move to 2012 now one of the most shocking careers that the NFL has seen in quite some time the Colts were on the clock at number one and desperately were in need of a

Quarterback after pton Manning signed with the Broncos they decided to go with Andrew luck out of Stanford who immediately turned this team around in just his first season he led them to an 11 and5 record led the league in game-winning drives with seven made his first Pro Bowl appearance and finished

The year just behind RG3 for offensive Rookie of the Year luck was looking like a savior especially if you compare that to the previous year where they finished two and 14 they lost in the first round of those 2012 playoffs but the Colts had their new franchise quarterback it

Seemed like for the next two years luck turned it up even more leading the Colts to two playoff appearances making two more Pro bowls and even leading the league in touchdowns thrown at 40 in the 2014 season his main problem in the playoffs was a you know half decent

Quarterback by the name of Tom Brady luck and the Colts just couldn’t beat him in the Patriots 2013 divisional round they lost 43-22 and the 2014 playoffs they were blown out in the AFC Championship Game 45 to7 2015 was the year where everything began to fall apart for luck even if fans didn’t

Really know it at the time the first injury of that season came in September when he tore his right laum in his shoulder then in the beginning of November he suffered a lacerated kidney which caused him to miss a total of nine games following that year he was right

Back to being the Andrew Luck that Indianapolis fans loved throwing for over 4200 yards and 31 touchdowns but in 2017 he missed the entire season due to finally getting surgery on that Toren laum from 2 years back luck once again came back to deliver a good season for

The Colts leading them to the divisional round before this time losing to the Patrick Mahomes Leed Chiefs 31-13 right after a preseason game before the 2019 season began that’s when luck shocked the entire world he announced his retirement from football entirely stating that he’d been in constant pain for four straight years it

Had taken away his joy for the game and he was just done going through that cycle a lot of mental and physical pain at the end of the day luck was adored by Indie fans one of the nicest players in the league and the Colts have deeply

Missed his presence on the team since after stepping back from football luck has been coaching High School football spending time with his wife and two children and living a much more peaceful life away from the NFL now for 2013 this was our first non-quarterback on this list offensive lineman Eric Fischer was

Taken number one by the Kansas City Chiefs after a miserable 2 and4 Season the year prior they fired head coach Romeo kenell brought in Andy Reid and swapped in Alex Smith for quarterback instead of Matt Castle or Brady Quinn they each started a certain amount of games swapping back and forth not to

Mention they had one of the best running backs in the entire league with Jamal Charles the Chiefs needed fiser not only to provide more time for Smith but also open holes for Charles Kansas City actually finished with a positive record every single season that fiser was on

The team 2018 was the first season that he made the Pro Bowl which also happened to be Patrick Mahomes first year as the full-time starting quarterback and the next year is when the Chiefs would go on to make the Super Bowl against the 49ers Fisher played a big part in getting them

That far in the season the 49ers were in complete control of that Super Bowl heading into the fourth quarter but Mahomes wed that team back to win the game 31 to2 following that that Super Bowl season Fischer made one more Pro Bowl appearance in 2020 but unfortunately would tear his Achilles in

The AFC Championship game against the bills that year he then signed with the Colts in 2021 but wasn’t quite as effective after that injury causing him to enter free agency at the end of the season he did end up signing with the dolphins but didn’t play a single snap

For them so there’s a good chance that Fischer’s NFL career could be over onto 2014 the Houston Texans had picked number one and they were looking to beef up their defense they took Javon Clowney out of South Carolina who was widely known at the time for his electric hit

Against Michigan in the 2013 Outback PO he was much more than just that hit though he was the best player in the entire country Clowney struggle to stay healthy during his first two seasons in the league dealing with a few different injuries including a miniscus tear that

Caused him to miss 12 total games in his rookie season with the Texans once 2016 rolled around though you really started seeing the dominance that Clowney was capable of he made the Pro Bowl three straight Seasons along with helping the Texans make the playoffs twice after the 2018 season was over Clowney began

Bouncing around the league from the Seahawks to the Titans and then to the Browns but over that time he was never truly healthy and didn’t play in all 16 games any season most recently he was a part of the Ravens team who just made it to the AFC Championship game before

Losing to the Chiefs Clowny played a huge role in them getting that far though and that defense being so deadly as he finished the season tied for a career high in sacks at 92 he’s looking to build on that season next year and if the Ravens end up resigning him this off

Season hopefully for their sake they don’t have to play against Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs again moving to 2015 now crab leg stealing Jus Winston was taken first overall by the Bucks following their 2 and4 season coming out of Florida state jamus had a long list of strengths including being an

Excellent pocket passer having great accuracy impressive football IQ could scramble well and many many more the main weakness just seemed to be his immaturity off the field now if you’ve watched the NFL a lot since 2015 you would know that jamus can certainly be a character when it comes to his attitude

But you do know what to expect from him when he does play he started off his NFL career well making the Pro Bowl in his rookie year and following that up by Leading the Bucks to their first positive season since 2010 just when things seemed to be going well they

Turned around and started going in the opposite direction during the 2017 and 18 Seasons Winston dealt with multiple injuries and when he was on the field the team was just not winning games finishing those Seasons with a combined record of 6 and 16 once 2019 rolled around jamus threw for a mindboggling

519 yards along with 33 touchdowns now you would think holy this guy’s insane right MVP type season right here except for the fact that he threw 30 interceptions and the Bucks only finished 7 and N because of all those turnovers it became pretty clear that after that season Winston wasn’t going

To last long in Tampa Bay so he became part of the division rival New Orleans Saints starting in 2020 since then he’s mainly served as a backup quarterback behind names like Drew Brees Andy Dalton and most recently Derek Carr honestly for all my fantasy football guys out

There put this man in instead of Derek Carr we do not need 48 checkdowns to Alvin Kamar every single game all right let Chris La Thrive and if jamus is going to throw 40 interceptions so be it all jokes aside if he stays with the Saints Winston is probably going to

Continue to back up Derek Carr unless something drastically changes during the current offseason although it has been stated that Winston is not satisfied with being the backup so best of luck to him in his journey to reclaiming that starting role 2016 yet another quarterback went first Jared G was taken

By the Rams the first season that they switched from St Louis to Los Angeles and that season was a complete disaster for him his starting record was 0 and seven throwing more interceptions than touchdowns and leaving the organization with more questions than answers golf gave them those answers though starting

In year two leading them to an 11 and5 record and making his first Pro Bowl appearance after having a 4 to1 touchdown interception ratio the Rams would end up losing in the wild card game that season but would be right back in the playoffs in 2018 looking for more

On the back of another gared gof Pro Bowl season the Rams made it all the way to the Super Bowl against the Tom Brady Le Patriots this game was a straightup defensive battle 16 total points scored zero touchdowns thrown by either quarterback this was a casual fans worst

Nightmare and the Super Bowl is the most casually watched NFL game all season long so you can probably imagine people hated this game bryy of course won yet another title and all the Rams had to show for their amazing run was three points in the biggest game of the entire

Year now golf kept playing well for the next two seasons but the Rams wanted to win and they wanted it now so they didn’t feel like gol was the right guy to do that with they sent him to Detroit and replaced him with Matthew Stafford

And as we know now that would be the right choice for them as Los Angeles then won the Super Bowl that same year but golf’s time in Detroit started the exact opposite very bad 310 And1 was his starting record that first year but since then that organization has had

Hope like never before four players are stepping up huge like Aman R st Brown The Duo of David Montgomery and jir Gibbs have brought New Life to that backfield and the lions are hoping to cash in on a Super Bowl run within the next couple of years they came super

Close this past season and should have Honestly made it to face the Chiefs they kind of choked that game against the 49ers and I personally wouldn’t be surprised at all if we saw the Lions win it very soon the lions are also a team that I feel like you can’t hate they’ve

Been bad for so long now now you got to cut these guys some slack here let’s see Jared G and the Lions win a championship let’s head to 2017 where a defensive end by the name of Miles Garrett would be selected by the Cleveland Browns they

Needed a ton of help on both sides of the ball and they were coming off a season where they gave up the third most amount of points in the league so far into his career Garrett has been a phenomenal pick his rookie season started late due to an ankle injury but

Since then he has been a complete monster making five Pro Bowl appearances are ready three first team Pro appearances and is coming off his best season yet in 2023 since 2018 Garrett had 10 or more sacks every season and the only reason he didn’t have a six Pro

Bowl appearance is because he was suspended in 2019 for six games for bashing Mason Rudolph with his helmet like we just mentioned he had 10 sacks still missing six games that year which is unreal the past season he just won his first Defensive Player of the Year award and the Browns made an

Unbelievable playoff run before losing to the Texans in the wild card game they’re hoping to definitely pick up right where they left off next season with Garrett once again leading that defense as for 2018 those same Browns were on the clock looking for a quarterback after three straight

Disastrous Seasons they took my brother Baker Mayfield you know people say I look like him all the time except there’s one difference you know he’s out here leading an NFL team to the playoffs while I’m over here making videos so if you want to send me some money Baker to

Your family I be much appreciated but during his college days at Oklahoma there were mixed opinions about him some Scouts thought he was a fierce leader who had the toughness needed to make it in the league While others thought he was too cocky and needed to get his act

In check that toughness is exactly what the Browns needed though a player who would put everything on the line to win games that’s exactly what Baker did the Browns fought and clawed their way back to close to an even record for the first 2 years but in the third season they

Finally broke through they finished with a record of 11 and5 and made their first playoff appearance since 2002 Cleveland even won their first playoff game beating the Steelers before eventually falling to momes and the Chiefs now after that year Baker couldn’t find that same level of success and in 2022 he was

Sent to the Carolina Panthers where he started off the year 1 and5 as a starter near the trade deadline Mayfield ended up on the Rams where he had a miraculous game against the Raiders on Thursday Night Football but sadly that high wouldn’t last too long now this most

Recent season he was a part of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and really turned his career around with this team he threw for his first 4,000 yard season of his career finished third in comeback Player of the Year voting and led them to a playoff birth they absolutely smoked the

Hell out of the Eagles in the Wild Card round 32 to9 before falling to the lions in the divisional round Baker is a free agent this off season but I feel like the Bucks would be stupid not to try to throw their best offer at him and uh try

To get him to stay 2019 we have yet another another quarterback Kyler Murray taken by the Cardinals Arizona was coming off a 3 and13 season they were not happy at all with Josh Rosen so they decided to look for answers elsewhere that answer happened to be Kyler Murray

Now Murray’s first season in the NFL turned out great he won the offensive Rookie of the Year award and threw for 20 touchdowns but there were still a ton of problems most importantly was that the Cardinals only finished with five wins and he was sacked the most out of

Any quarterback in the entire league now in 2020 the cardinal decided to give him a weapon by the name of DeAndre Hopkins who was one of the best wide receivers in football at the time this went well for both of them leading to Kyler making the Pro Bowl two straight seasons and

Arizona making the playoffs in the 2021 season they lost to the Rams in the Wild Card round but things seem to be heading in the right direction for them otherwise 2022 became Murray’s Worst season though leading to him finishing with a record of 3 and8 before tearing

His ACL in a game against the Patriots ultimately ending his season after after just 11 games when he was healthy the blame couldn’t even all be placed on him though in my eyes this roster had very limited Talent Hopkins was suspended for the beginning of the year so the main

Wide receiver was Maris Brown and as much as I love Hollywood Brown he’s just not a clear number one leading receiver in the NFL this past season Murray came back in the middle of the season but a lot of people fear that he is not the

Same player as he was before his ACL tear the Cardinals are continuing to stand by Murray but I want to know what you guys think should the Cardinals move on from him or ride it out and see what happens moving on to 2020 we have every lady’s favorite quarterback Joe burrow

Taken by the Bengals Scouts saw him as an immediate game changer at the pro level coming out of LSU he also had two of the best receivers currently in the NFL on that Year’s college team with Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase luckily Chase was also drafted by the Bengals so

Burrow had someone he could rely on which was a huge help the first season of Burrow’s career started very slow though for Cincinnati and it got even worse once he tour his ACL MCL and miniscus in late November BR made a huge comeback though proving that he had the

Toughness to survive at the professional level and win in 2021 he won the comeback Player of the Year award along with leading the Bengals to a 10- six record if that wasn’t enough for you burrow also took down momes and the Chiefs in the playoffs to make it all

The way to the Super Bowl against the Rams this was a hardfought game on both sides ending with the the Rams narrowly winning by a final score of 23 to 20 in 2022 burrow once again led the Bengals to the playoffs and a 12-4 record along with securing his first Pro Bowl

Appearance this time around momes and the Chiefs got the better of them knocking ciny out in the AFC Championship game and as for this past season it was a brutal one for burrow as he was injured since the preseason so we really didn’t get a good look at their

Offense in full swing they did just resign T Higgins though and Chase is still there so the Bengals should be back to becoming contenders in the 2024 season barring any changes on to 2021 not surprising here another quarterback taken with Trevor Lawrence to the Jaguars taaw was an animal in college

Finishing his career at Clemson with a record of 38-2 and a national championship to show for it if I’m being completely honest just throw his rookie seas in with the Jaguars in the garbage because Urban Meyer is one of the worst NFL coaches that I’ve ever seen once he

Was finally canned the Jag started doing something in 2022 after they got Doug Peterson from Philly but before that it was a complete show Lawrence finished that 2022 season with a Pro Bowl appearance 25 touchdown passes just eight interceptions and led the Jags to a playoff birth they snuck by the

Chargers in the first round after an unreal comeback but couldn’t quite get past momes and the Chiefs in the divisional round personally I was very disappointed in their most recent season they went out and got a huge weapon in Calvin Ridley still had Christian Kirk who went crazy the year prior but still

Couldn’t couldn’t make a postseason run Lawrence played fine but that’s really all it was I’m really hoping for some fireworks from them in the 2024 season or else there’s going to be a lot of questions staying with the Jags here they also had the first overall pick in

2022 and this time they decided to go with a defensive end by the name of Trayvon Walker Trayvon Walker has really not been discussed at all these past two seasons from my understanding overall he’s been all right but not spectacular he’s really good at stopping the run and

Did just finished this past season with 10 sacks which is great to see so he is trending in the right direction but compared to the picks after him he kind of gets lost in the noise and in 2023 none other than Bryce young was taken by the Carolina Panthers complete disaster

Of a rookie season for him 2 and 14 is a starter and was sacked for the most amount of yards out of any quarterback in the league but what is this dude really supposed to do over here your best receiver is a 33-year-old Adam thielen you signed my sanders to a a

Huge contract which personally I don’t believe he deserved the offensive line in Philadelphia made him look so much better than he actually is as a runner and the offensive line in general just breaks down right when the ball is snapped they might need to just gut this

Team and start from scratch honestly at this point hopefully they can get back on the right track in these next couple of Seasons because if not Panthers fans might start a riot and as for 2024 we don’t know yet who’s going to be the first overall pick the Bears have a

Choice to make maybe it’s going to be k Williams maybe Marvin Harrison Jr or somebody that nobody expects we’re going to have to just wait and see if you enjoyed this video make sure to check out some of my others also hit that subscribe button
