Well wasn’t that something.
The first round of the 2023 NFL draft featured a lot of surprises (we’re looking at you, Detroit). It was a wild night one, which included trades galore, an early run on quarterbacks and some top prospects falling.
Round 2 kicks off tonight at 6 p.m. CT, where teams without a first-round pick will begin making their selections (Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers).
