10 NFL draft picks who went No. 1 and how to buy their throwback jerseys


The sound of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announcing the first pick of the NFL draft is dancing in every football fan's heads this week as the anticipation for the annual event reaches its peak.

This year, the Tennessee Titans hold the first pick in the draft after a dismal 3-14 season. The hope for many fans in the Music City is that whoever the Titans draft, QB Cam Ward is the odds-on favorite, will be the difference maker in leading the franchise forward.

Unfortunately for many franchises, the first overall pick doesn't always work out the way they would've hoped. Since the NFL's inception, only 14 players who were picked No. 1 went on to be Hall of Fame players.

With that in mind, we found 10 of some of the top No. 1 overall picks and their jerseys on Fanatics.

No. 1: Peyton Manning - Indianapolis Colts jersey

No. 2: Myles Garrett - Cleveland Browns Nike jersey

No. 3: Michael Vick - Atlanta Falcons jersey

No. 4: Troy Aikman - Dallas Cowboys jersey

No. 5: Terry Bradshaw - Pittsburgh Steelers jersey

No. 6: Joe Burrow - Cincinnati Bengals Nike jersey

No. 7: Earl Campbell - Houston Oilers jersey

No. 8: Bruce Smith - Buffalo Bills Nike jersey
