2013 NFL Draft: Six Years Later

It is an annual tradition at Football Outsiders to look back at the draft that was, in preparation for thinking about the draft that is upcoming. On most websites, that means talking about the early success of Baker Mayfield, the Cardinals' decision to take Josh Rosen, and whether Sam Darnold or Josh Allen will eventually become the quarterback to end the Patriots' reign of terror in the AFC East. But what if I told you that the NFL once held a draft, and no quarterbacks showed up?

Every year, we look back at the draft that was six years ago -- and the 2013 draft is a historical doozy, at least under center.
