No. 1 overall: The Bengals are taking LSU quarterback winner Joe Burrow with the first pick. This honor caps an incredible year for Burrow, who threw 60 touchdown passes, won the Heisman Trophy in a landslide and led LSU to an undefeated season and national title. The Packers won’t play Burrow and the Bengals in the regular season until 2021. They are scheduled to play in Cincinnati.
