The first six selections of the draft made at least one Pro Bowl, and three of the first 16 picks — Bruce Smith, Chris Doleman, and Jerry Rice — have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

For the second consecutive draft, there were no quarterbacks chosen in the first round (Day One).[3] Randall Cunningham was the first quarterback selected (second round). Of note, University of Miami quarterback Bernie Kosar was taken by the Browns in the supplemental draft several months later.
