Quarterbacks selected 1-2 in NFL draft

The bold moves by the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles to secure the No. 1 and 2 overall picks in the 2016 NFL Draft nearly assures that quarterbacks will go 1-2 when Round 1 commences in Chicago next Thursday (on NFL Network).

This would mark the seventh time in the draft's modern era (since 1967), and the second consecutive year, that quarterbacks would go with the first two picks.

Here is a look at the previous occurrences of quarterbacks going 1-2 in the draft. While the careers of last year's selections at 1-2 have gotten off to promising starts, that is generally not the case. Typically, one quarterback's career will pan out while the other's won't, sometimes in a colossal manner.
