Year after year, the NFL draft feels like somewhat of a crap shoot. In fact, in just looking at the first quarterback off the board in the last several drafts, it becomes obvious that drafting is an inexact science.

“I would be the best GM what is this guy doing!?” At one point or another, we’ve all heard this before. Would you really be a great GM though? Now, you can answer that question.

Before diving into the 2020 draft, let’s take a look back at the 2019 draft to help guide us. The 2019 draft, both at the time and in retrospect, is fascinating. Draft experts were extremely high on the top 3 in this draft, but down on the next tier of players.

That he had millions of followers upon entering the league, coupled with the fact that he looked like a generational athlete is why the original value on his Prizm Silver BGS 9.5 card was 1,056.25. At peak value, on August 1st, the card was valued at $2,720.00, and was last sold at $1,625.00.
