Justin Fields went 11th overall, to the Chicago Bears who were impressed with his toughness. The New Orleans Saints (surprise, surprise) took Pete Werner with the 60th pick in the 2nd round. Two picks later, Josh Myers went to Green Bay. That cadence repeated itself when the Minnesota Vikings took Wavy Dub with the 86th pick right before the San Francisco 49ers took Trey Sermon two picks later. The Denver Broncos took Baron Browning with the 105th pick in the 3rd round and Jonathon Cooper in the 7th round. The Best Sleeper Picks of All Time
Team 90s in this debate includes two Hall of Famers, four 10,000-yard receivers, and
eight Pro Bowlers. The Jets began the draft with Keyshawn Johnson the last receiver to go No. 1 and the Colts grabbed Marvin Harrison with a first-round pick obtained via 1994 s Jeff George trade. A year after trading up for J.J. Stokes, the 49ers found Jerry Rice s true heir apparent in Terrell Owens (Round 3). This class s depth, however, wins out. First-rounder Eric Moulds made three Pro Bowls and took the Bills WR1 baton from Andre Reed; Joe Horn (Round 5) made four as a Saint; Muhsin Muhammad (Round 2) played 14 seasons; the Giants depended on Amani Toomer for over a decade. Also including Terry Glenn, Bobby Engram, and Eddie Kennison, this draft remains the bar 25 years later.
