• This was the second time in the common draft era that six quarterbacks were taken in the first round (1983), tying the record for the most; this is also the first time we've seen six quarterbacks taken in the first 12 picks.
• This was the first time in the common draft era that four quarterbacks were taken in the first eight picks.
• This was the first time in the common draft era that five quarterbacks were taken in the top ten picks.
• This is the fourth time in the common draft era that the first three overall picks were quarterbacks (2021, 1999, 1971).
