Lawrence Taylor Goes No. 1 Overall in The MMQB All-Time Draft

Posted Jul 18, 2017
The MMQB enlisted 12 former NFL executives, players and writers to draft teams constructed of players from across the entire history of the NFL. When longtime NFL exec Joel Bussert was on the clock at No. 1, he knew who he had to take: Lawrence Taylor. “For me it was a no-brainer, because even before the order came out I said if I have a chance to get LT I am going to take him.” (Sports Illustrated)
