The 2011 NFL Draft was a fascinating one, filled with some fantastic hits and colossal misses. Billed as one of the best quarterback classes of the last decade-plus, we saw four different quarterbacks selected in Round 1. However, only one proved worthy of the selection.
Of the four QBs taken in the first round, just one signed an extension with the team that drafted him. All four of them started as rookies, but just one remains in the NFL. What happened to everybody else from the 2011 NFL Draft class? Below are the full 2011 NFL Draft results.
