There are only 10 players in the 100 Rushing TD Club.
7 are in the Hall of Fame.
The other 3?
Adrian Peterson (HOF Lock)
Derrick Henry (HOF Lock)
Shaun Alexander
There were zero Hall of Fame selections from the 1984 NFL Draft. The entire class totaled 8 All-Pro Selections.
But there were three Hall of Famers from the Supplemental Draft.
Reggie White alone had 8 All-Pro selections.
I found one of the most absurd drives in NFL history
In 1979, the Giants went on a 14-play drive against the Redskins where they gave the ball to Billy Taylor 13 times
I genuinely don't even know how you carry the ball 13 times in one drive without dying
Wes Welker became the 1st player in NFL history to record five 100+ catch seasons after catching 118 balls in 2012.
Today, he is still just one of just eight players in NFL history to have five or more 100+ catch seasons on their resume.
Keep this in mind - it is VERY rare to have a bunch of high end tight ends in one class.
So far, there's been one class, ever, where four guys hit 1,000+ career PPR points (to put that in perspective, Austin Hooper has 1,058.1)
Here are the top-scoring fantasy quarterbacks drafted in the 2nd round over the last 25 years per @pfref.
The only starting ones right now are Jalen Hurts, Geno Smith, and Tyler Shough. Keep that in mind if guys like Ty Simpson, Garrett Nussmeier, Drew Allar don't go round 1.
Happy April Fools!
