But there are actually some significant similarities. As we watched the draft progress, it became obvious that though the first two spots went to quarterbacks, the majority of first-round NFL Draft picks pretty much covered the field, from offensive and defensive lines, as well as the defensive backfield.<\/p>\n<p>Cal quarterback, Jared Goff\u00a0 went to the now-Los Angeles Rams in the first slot, and the Philadelphia Eagles grabbed North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz next. Aside from a running back picked fourth and wide receivers picked 15th and 21st, the rest of the selections were spread throughout the offense and defense. So even though quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers in the glamour positions get the bulk of the glory (and money), teams recognize it takes a full complement of players to be successful.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3814\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3814\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3814\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatchat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/NFL-Draft-tracker-2016.jpg\" alt=\"2016 NFL Draft proves a comprehensive plan is a must - even with live chat\" width=\"310\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatchat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/NFL-Draft-tracker-2016.jpg 310w, https:\/\/www.boatchat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/NFL-Draft-tracker-2016-190x300.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 310px) 100vw, 310px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3814\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">2016 NFL Draft proves a comprehensive plan is a must &#8211; even with live chat<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And so it is with your dealership website.
