Part 2/9:
To assess the value of the number one pick, particularly in relation to quarterbacks, one must consider the significant discrepancies from previous years. In stark contrast to the rich pool of talent in the last two drafts, this year's options seem underwhelming. The Chicago Bears, who once basked in the glow of strong interest for their top pick, now face a different reality. Quarterbacks like Drake May and J.J. McCarthy have emerged, but they aren’t garnering the same feverish buzz as those in the recent years featuring Bryce Young or C.J. Stroud.
