2017 Class Highlight
The Greatest Day 3 Draft in NFL History
The 2017 class produced Kittle at #146, Aaron Jones at #182, Quandre Diggs at #165, Matt Milano at #163, Desmond King at #151, and Harrison Butker at #233. Round 5 alone generated more Pro Bowl appearances than most entire draft classes. And at #69 in Round 3, an FCS receiver from Eastern Washington posted the greatest single receiving season in NFL history.

Best Value Pick — All Time?
#146
George Kittle, SF
Iowa's system hid his talent so completely he slid to pick 146. He went on to break the single-season TE receiving yards record and earn 6 Pro Bowls.
