Trivia for February 3, 2017

Question

The Falcons traded up to select Julio Jones with the 6th pick of the 2011 draft, and now he's got them on the doorstep of maybe winning a championship. Who are the only other three active wide receivers who were top-10 picks and went on to play in Super Bowl games?

Answer

Larry Fitzgerald (3rd pick, 2004), Ted Ginn Jr. (9th pick, 2007), and Michael Crabtree (10th pick, 2009). Ginn was selected by the Dolphins but then oddly played in Super Bowls with two other teams -- San Francisco (mostly as a returner) and Carolina. Four receivers selected with top-5 picks have played in Super Bowls -- Fitzgerald, Irving Fryar (No. 1 pick by the Patriots, who was on the field for the beatdown by the Bears in the '80s), Keyshawn Johnson (No. 1 won a ring with the Bucs) and Desmond Howard (a No. 4 pick by Washington but won with the Packers).
