The first round of the 2022 NFL draft took place in Las Vegas on Thursday evening.
There was no shortage of excitement, as the first round was full of trades, wide receivers, and pass rushers.
The SEC once again dominated the night with 12 players selected. Georgia had the most players of any program selected on Thursday with five, including the No. 1 overall pick in Travon Walker.
It was a great night for wide receivers, not so much for quarterbacks. Six pass catchers were selected in the first round, not to mention two blockbuster trades that involved AJ Brown and Marquise Brown. Only one quarterback was selected in Pittsburgh’s Kenny Pickett.
Let’s take a look at some most interesting outcomes following the first round of the 2022 NFL draft.
