Tomorrow night during the Giants vs Browns Game something will occur that has never happened before in NFL History.
It's the first time that the #1 & #2 Overall Draft Picks will meet in first Pre Season Game.
Now I know it would mean more if it were to happen in a regular season game and the two probably won't play more then a series or 2. Plus both play Offense. But I thought it was an interesting fact

While I don't doubt that's true you'd think the 2 shitiest teams each year get the 1 and 2 spots in the draft, but have never played each other in preseason?
Weird.

I'm just telling you what I heard on ESPN. I guess it's happened before but not in 1st pre season game Myles Garrett selected by browns #1 last year faced Cleveland native Mitch Tribuski2nd overall pick of Bears in Week 4 of pre season last year |

But I thought it was an interesting fact I'm expecting to see a fair amount of Mayfield, and would guess that Taylor will be the one only getting a series or two at the start. |

Not sure how significant meeting in the preseason is. A few years ago the #1 and #2 pick met week 1 when Jamais Winston and the Bucs played Marcus Marriota of the Titans in the first regular season game of the season.

Here's the real history making event for tonight - the Rams and Saints will feature male cheerleaders for the first time in the NFL.

You'll be one of the few Giants fans wishing our team had cheerleaders, now. Can't wait for the Cowboys to saddle up a few of these guys. |

Speaking of which, I still want a NYG swimsuit calendar with the players. No need for cheerleaders. |

Probably because it's never happened this quick?? But being that it's pre SeasonGame it means nothing compared to that game you mentioned being it was a regular season game. Probably just fluff to get people to tune in |

Darnold will play the most out of all of them I would wager

Mayfield is said to be getting around 2 quarters. I doubt TBs plays him more then that |

Well with Bridgewater and afterthought and McNown probably getting a veterans day I could see Sam Darnold going for 3 quarters to get him ready as I feel he is the day one starter in September

Hopefully the #2 pick plays sparingly for no more than two series. Gregg Williams is a sketchball and we've been fortunate as far as injuries go so far.

LOL, seems like this idea came without warning. Might be quite a few jaws dropping at those stadiums, for those not forwarned. |
