The 2020 quarterback draft class is making history as potentially the highest-paid and most prolific group of QBs from any draft in NFL history. The five quarterbacks taken in the top two rounds four years ago have collectively agreed to contracts worth over $1.2 billion in less than 16 months.
Joe Burrow, the No. 1 pick, signed a five-year, $275 million deal with the Cincinnati Bengals, while Justin Herbert, the No. 6 pick, secured a five-year $262.5 million contract with the Los Angeles Chargers. Jalen Hurts, a second-rounder, received a five-year $255 million extension after leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a Super Bowl appearance.
