Quarterback prospect Andrew Luck received significant attention in the weeks preceding the draft. On April 17, Indianapolis general manager Ryan Grigson announced that the team would take Luck as their first-overall pick after releasing longtime starting quarterback Peyton Manning, saying it was "the right thing to do" in anticipation of the "media gauntlet" Luck would face in the days leading up to the draft.http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/blog/eye-on-football/18812990/colts-gm-ryan-grigson-confirms-indianapolis-will-select-andrew-luck-no-1 Colts GM Ryan Grigson confirms Indianapolis will select Andrew Luck No. 1 April 24, 2012 Will Brinson Eye on Football CBS Sports Luck was highly touted as one of the best quarterback prospects in years and widely regarded as the top overall prospect in the draft.Christensen James 2012 NFL Draft Big Board: Ranking the Top 100 Prospects https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1117715-2012-nfl-draft-big-board-ranking-the-top-100-prospects 2022-03-05 Bleacher Report March 5, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220305023114/https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1117715-2012-nfl-draft-big-board-ranking-the-top-100-prospects live NFL draft: Andrew Luck's early retirement casts new, strange light on 2012 draft class https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-draft-andrew-lucks-early-retirement-casts-new-strange-light-on-2012-draft-class-193108669.html 2022-03-05 sports.yahoo.com August 25, 2019 March 5, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220305023113/https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl-draft-andrew-lucks-early-retirement-casts-new-strange-light-on-2012-draft-class-193108669.html live As a result, he had been the subject of the "Suck for Luck" campaigns by fans, who hoped that their teams would end up with the worst record in the 2011 season so they would have the chance to draft him.Hodkowski Ryne NFL: Why 'Suck for Luck' or Any Similar Campaign Is an Impossible Endeavor https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1000692-nfl-why-suck-for-luck-or-any-similar-campaign-is-an-impossible-endeavor 2022-03-05 Bleacher Report March 5, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220305023114/https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1000692-nfl-why-suck-for-luck-or-any-similar-campaign-is-an-impossible-endeavor live http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/21/us/suck-for-luck-could-be-best-hope-for-nfls-worst/index.html "Suck for Luck" could be best hope for NFL's worst October 21, 2011 CNN.com Steve Politi January 9, 2012 May 12, 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20120512103421/http://www.cnn.com/2011/10/21/us/suck-for-luck-could-be-best-hope-for-nfls-worst/index.html live He was successful with the Colts, but dealt with several injuries throughout his career and decided to retire in 2019 while still in his prime, after winning the NFL Comeback Player of the Year Award.2019-08-25 Luck retires, calls decision 'hardest of my life' https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27456682/luck-retires-calls-decision-hardest-my-life 2022-03-05 ESPN.com September 30, 2022 https://web.archive.org/web/20220930225210/https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/27456682/luck-retires-calls-decision-hardest-my-life live Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Robert Griffin III was the subject of another major story in the draft.

The draft was highly regarded for its quarterback talent, with six out of the eleven quarterbacks selected (Luck, Griffin, Ryan Tannehill, Russell Wilson, Nick Foles and Kirk Cousins) selected to at least one Pro Bowl. Tannehill and Foles both had a season in which they led the NFL in passer rating; Foles was also named MVP of Super Bowl LII. As of 2022, Cousins is ranked in the top ten in career passer rating and completion percentage.NFL Passer Rating Career Leaders https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_rating_career.htm 2022-03-05 Pro-Football-Reference.com September 13, 2019 https://web.archive.org/web/20190913194612/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_rating_career.htm live NFL Pass Completion % Career Leaders https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_cmp_perc_career.htm 2022-03-05 Pro-Football-Reference.com August 8, 2019 https://web.archive.org/web/20190808165003/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_cmp_perc_career.htm live Wilson was the most successful quarterback of the draft, making nine Pro Bowls and leading the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl victory.Gaines Cork WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
