The 2013 NFL draft was the 78th annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible football players. The draft, which is officially called the "NFL Player Selection Meeting",[1] was held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City on April 25 through April 27.[2][3]

Eric Fisher was chosen first overall by the Kansas City Chiefs, becoming the fourth offensive tackle ever to be selected with the top pick since the first common draft in 1967.[4] Players who attended high school in 39 of the 50 states were selected in this draft; Florida and California led with 27 draftees each.[5] South Carolina contributed the most drafted players on a per capita basis with 13 players, or one of every 355,798 residents of the state.[5] Among colleges, Florida State led with 11 players selected.[6]: 31 

A record 11 players from countries other than the United States were selected (Ghanaians Ezekiel Ansah and Edmund Kugbila, Tongan Star Lotulelei, German Björn Werner, Englishman Menelik Watson, Estonian Margus Hunt, Liberian Sio Moore, Jamaican Trevardo Williams, Australian Jesse Williams, Canadian Luke Willson and Zimbabwean Stansly Maponga), breaking the record set by the 2012 NFL draft.[7] Meanwhile, nine offensive linemen were selected in the first round which ties a record previously set in 1968.[8]

The following is the breakdown of the 254 players selected by position:

Early entrants

[edit]

A record 73 underclassmen forfeited any remaining NCAA eligibility they may have been eligible for and declared themselves available to be selected in the draft.[9] Of these, 52 (71.2%) were drafted.[6]: 31 

Determination of draft order

[edit]

The draft order is based generally on each team's record from the previous season, with teams which qualified for the postseason selecting after those which failed to make the playoffs.[10]

Schools with multiple draft selections

[edit]
[edit]

During Super Bowl XLVII, the NFL presented a promotional advertisement for the 2013 Draft featuring retired athlete Deion Sanders attempting a comeback return under the name "Leon Sandcastle". The ad followed the fictional exploits of Sandcastle (portrayed by Ball State cornerback Andre Dawson) through tryouts until he is drafted first overall by the Kansas City Chiefs.[20]

The 2013 National Football League Draft was the 78th annual player selection meeting held by the league's 32 teams to select newly eligible players, taking place from April 25 to 27 at in . A total of 254 players were chosen across seven rounds, with the holding the first overall pick and selecting offensive tackle Eric Fisher from —the first offensive tackle taken at No. 1 since Jake Long in 2008. The draft class was particularly deep at offensive line, highlighted by three tackles selected among the top four picks: Fisher (No. 1, Chiefs), from A&M (No. 2, ), and from (No. 4, via trade). Other key first-round selections included from (No. 3, ) and from (No. 8, ). While the early rounds emphasized linemen over skill positions, later selections yielded several standout performers, such as from Clemson (No. 27, Houston Texans), running back from Michigan State (No. 48, ), and tight end from (No. 63, Chiefs), who went on to become perennial Pro Bowlers and key contributors to championship-caliber teams.

Background

Early entrants

The eligibility criteria for underclassmen to enter the 2013 NFL Draft required players to have completed at least three years of enrollment and to forgo any remaining NCAA eligibility by submitting a written application to . Underclassmen meeting these standards had until January 15, 2013, to declare their intentions. A record 73 underclassmen were granted special eligibility for the draft, surpassing the previous high of 65 from 2012. This surge included juniors and sophomores across positions, with only two quarterbacks—Geno Smith from West Virginia and Tyler Bray from Tennessee—opting to declare early. Notable early entrants included , a junior from , who declared after a breakout season with over 4,200 passing yards and 42 touchdowns, aiming to capitalize on his status as a projected first-round pick. Other prominent declarants were , a junior offensive tackle from Texas A&M, seeking to build on his All-American performance; , a junior wide receiver from Clemson, after leading the ACC in receptions; and , a junior from Michigan State, following a 1,000-yard rushing campaign. These players represented a mix of top prospects motivated by professional opportunities and strong college production. The wave of early declarations significantly affected several college rosters heading into the 2013 season, forcing teams to adjust depth and strategies. LSU lost 10 underclassmen, including defensive standouts like and , which depleted their front seven and secondary. Stanford faced a rebuild at after and departed, while needed to replace key defensive players including safety , defensive tackle , and others, requiring five new starters in the front seven. Overall, the departures highlighted the growing trend of talented players prioritizing prospects over additional college seasons.

Determination of draft order

The draft order for the 2013 NFL Draft was established primarily through the reverse order of the regular season standings, with the team posting the worst win-loss record receiving the first overall selection. Non-playoff teams were ranked from worst to best record, while playoff participants were slotted after them based on postseason outcomes: the winner picked last (32nd overall), the runner-up second-to-last (31st), conference championship losers in positions 27-30 according to their respective games, and wild-card and division winners filling the remaining spots in reverse order of their regular-season records. This system incentivizes poor performance in the prior season to secure higher picks, with the earning the No. 1 selection after their 2-14 finish. Ties in regular-season records among non-playoff teams were resolved using a series of tiebreakers, starting with —calculated as the combined of all opponents faced, with the team having the lowest (toughest) schedule picking earlier. If did not break the tie, additional criteria were applied, including head-to-head results, division or conference records, and net points in conference games; for unresolved multi-team ties, a coin flip determined the order. For instance, the two teams with the worst records (2-14) were the Chiefs and Jaguars, where placed the Chiefs at No. 1 overall and the Jaguars at No. 2; the three 4-12 teams followed with the Raiders at No. 3, Eagles at No. 4, and Lions at No. 5. Playoff ties followed similar rules but prioritized deeper postseason advancement. Compensatory selections, awarded to teams suffering a net loss of unrestricted free agents from the prior offseason, were added to the draft order in rounds 3 through 7 to balance competitive equity. The NFL's for these picks evaluates the of departed free agents against those signed, adjusted for playing time (snap counts) and postseason participation, with one pick granted per net qualifying loss up to a maximum of four per team and round. For the 2013 draft, 32 such picks were distributed to 16 clubs, with the and each receiving four—the maximum allowed—primarily in the fourth and fifth rounds. The initial draft order was finalized following on February 3, 2013, with compensatory picks officially announced on March 18, 2013, ahead of the draft held April 25-27 in . No significant pre-draft adjustments occurred beyond these standard procedures.

Draft Mechanics

Trades

During the 2013 NFL Draft, held April 25–27 in , teams executed 47 trades to reposition for key selections, exchanging a total of over 150 draft picks across all rounds. These transactions adhered to the NFL's standardized trade value chart, originally devised by former coach Jimmy Johnson, which assigns point values to picks to facilitate equitable swaps—for instance, the No. 1 overall pick is worth 3,000 points, while a No. 31 first-round selection rates at 670 points, and a typical seventh-round pick (e.g., No. 250) holds about 0.4 points. In the first round, trading activity was moderate with eight notable deals, often involving teams moving up for premium talent like offensive linemen and defensive backs. For example, the traded their No. 12 overall pick (valued at 1,300 points), a second-round choice (No. 42, 430 points), and a 2014 sixth-rounder to the for the No. 3 overall selection (2,250 points), enabling Miami to draft edge rusher . Similarly, the acquired the No. 8 pick from the in exchange for the No. 22 (850 points), No. 46 (400 points), No. 78 (210 points), and No. 222 (4 points), a deal netting the Rams approximately 1,600 points for 1,464 given, allowing them to select . Another significant first-round maneuver was the multi-team swap centered on E.J. Manuel: the Bills, originally holding the No. 8 pick, traded it to the Rams (as noted above), then used the acquired No. 22—the pick originally from the Rams' 2012 deal with the Washington Redskins—to select Manuel, highlighting aggressive mobility for quarterback prospects. The second and third rounds saw heightened activity, with 22 trades as teams targeted depth players like linebackers and wide receivers, often trading mid-round picks for slight upward movement. The , for instance, moved up from No. 45 to No. 38 by sending a third-round pick (No. 76, 195 points) and a sixth-rounder (No. 185, 3.8 points) to the for the latter's second-round selection (570 points), selecting linebacker amid a perceived value surplus of about 371 points. In Round 3, the traded picks No. 101 (145 points) and No. 210 (5.5 points) to the for No. 98 (150 points), a minor adjustment to draft quarterback , reflecting Day 3's focus on developmental quarterbacks. Later rounds featured the bulk of the trades (17 in Rounds 4–7), emphasizing fine-tuning rosters with special teams and backup talent, where lower-value picks (under 100 points each) were frequently bundled. A representative Day 3 example was the acquiring No. 112 from the for No. 111 and a 2014 fifth-rounder, selecting Tyler Wilson in a near-even swap valued around 115 points each way. Overall patterns underscored quarterback desperation—four signal-callers were targeted via upward moves—and the ' aggressive wheeling, as they entered with extra picks from prior deals and flipped positions multiple times to stockpile talent. These intra-draft adjustments directly reshaped the selection sequence, enabling unexpected pairings like the 49ers landing safety at No. 18 after trading with .

Forfeited picks

In the NFL, draft picks may be forfeited as a disciplinary measure imposed by the for violations of league rules, including conduct detrimental to the league, tampering with contracts, infractions, or improper use of supplemental draft selections, as authorized under the NFL Constitution and Bylaws. Teams subject to such penalties have the right to the Commissioner's decision through an internal process, though further appeals to neutral arbitrators or courts are rare and typically unsuccessful. These forfeitures alter the draft order by skipping the affected pick, effectively redistributing selections to subsequent teams without compensation. The forfeitures in the 2013 NFL Draft stemmed primarily from investigations and actions in the prior year, compelling affected teams to adjust their drafting strategies amid reduced opportunities to acquire mid-round talent. In total, two second-round picks were forfeited, both impacting the selection of potential starters and depth players in a draft class noted for its defensive depth. The New Orleans Saints forfeited their second-round pick (originally No. 42 overall) due to their involvement in the "Bountygate" scandal, where the team operated an illegal pay-for-performance program that incentivized injuring opposing players, as uncovered in a 2012 NFL investigation. This penalty, announced in March 2012 alongside a $500,000 fine, was upheld after the Saints' appeal was denied in April 2012, forcing the team to rely more heavily on later rounds and free agency to rebuild their defense following multiple suspensions of key personnel. Similarly, the forfeited their second-round pick (originally No. 33 overall) as required by NFL rules for selecting in the second round of the 2012 supplemental draft, a mechanism for players ineligible for the regular draft due to academic or disciplinary issues. This forfeiture, automatic upon Gordon's selection in July 2012, limited the Browns' ability to address needs at or the offensive line in the 2013 draft's early stages, exacerbating their roster challenges.

Supplemental draft

The NFL Supplemental Draft serves as an alternative entry path for college players who become ineligible for the regular draft due to circumstances such as academic deficiencies, disciplinary violations, or other NCAA sanctions that prevent timely declaration. To qualify, players must be at least three years removed from high school graduation and have exhausted or forfeited their remaining collegiate eligibility. Established in 1977, the process addresses unique cases where players, often sidelined for a year or more, seek professional opportunities without further college play. Teams participate through a blind bidding system, submitting confidential offers for specific players by designating the round in which they would select them. The highest bid—defined as the earliest round—awards exclusive negotiating rights to that team, which must then forfeit its pick in the corresponding round of the following year's regular draft. Ties in the same round are resolved by the teams' relative positions in the prior regular draft order. This penalty aligns with mechanisms for forfeited picks in the main draft, ensuring balance across selection opportunities. For the 2013 edition, held on July 11, six players applied and were approved: defensive ends James Boyd and Toby Jackson (UNLV and , respectively), Nate Holloway (UNLV), wide receivers DeWayne Peace () and O.J. Ross (Purdue), and Damond Smith (). None received bids from the 32 teams, marking the first selection-free Supplemental Draft since and leaving all applicants eligible to sign as undrafted free agents. The event's low profile reflected the applicants' limited prospect status and the risks of the bidding forfeiture. Historically, the Supplemental Draft remains rare in producing selections; since 1977, only 46 players have been chosen across dozens of iterations, often in isolated high-profile cases rather than routine use. The 2013 outcome exemplified this infrequency, with teams opting to pursue the players via free agency instead.

Key highlights included the first two picks being offensive tackles, underscoring the premium on left tackle protection, followed by a at No. 3, and three quarterbacks taken within the first three rounds: E.J. Manuel at No. 16, at No. 39, and Tyler Wilson at No. 74. Later rounds saw a broader distribution of positions, with running backs and defensive backs gaining traction as teams addressed depth needs. Trades influenced several selections, such as the moving up for , but the core order remained intact for most picks.

Statistics and Analysis

Selections by conference

The 2013 NFL draft showcased a significant concentration of selections from the (SEC), which set a single-year record with 63 players chosen, accounting for nearly 25% of the draft's 254 total picks. This dominance highlighted the conference's depth in producing professional-ready talent, particularly along the lines of scrimmage, where SEC programs emphasized physicality and technique in preparation for the NFL. Other major conferences trailed considerably, with the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and Pac-12 each contributing around 28-31 picks, underscoring a broader trend of talent distribution among power conferences.

The SEC's lead extended to the first round, where it supplied 12 of the 32 selections, more than double the next closest conferences (ACC with 6 and Pac-12 with 5). This output was driven by the conference's rigorous scheduling and recruiting focus on linemen, resulting in 8 offensive and defensive linemen drafted from SEC schools in the first three rounds alone. In contrast, the Big Ten's modest 20 total picks reflected challenges in translating college success to pro evaluations that year, with only one first-rounder ( from ). Notable SEC selections included offensive tackle Luke Joeckel from Texas A&M, taken second overall by the , and three Alabama players in the top 11: Dee Milliner (ninth overall, ), guard Chance Warmack (tenth overall, ), and tackle D.J. Fluker (eleventh overall, ). These picks exemplified the conference's prowess in developing elite blockers and defenders. The ACC contributed high-impact receivers like DeAndre Hopkins from Clemson (27th overall, Houston Texans), while the Pac-12's strengths shone in athletic edge rushers and skill players. Compared to prior drafts, the SEC's 2013 performance marked the pinnacle of its surge, surpassing its own 2012 total of 50 picks and outpacing the Pac-10's previous record of 55 in 1983 (pre-modern seven-round format). Over the five years from 2010 to 2014, the SEC led all conferences with 239 total selections, solidifying its status as the premier talent pipeline amid rising national competition. This trend was fueled by expanded membership (adding and Texas A&M in 2012) and sustained success in national championships, which elevated player visibility and development.

Schools with multiple draft selections

Florida State University had the most players selected in the 2013 NFL draft with 11, setting a school record and highlighting the program's depth under head coach Jimbo Fisher. The University of Alabama followed closely with 9 selections, including a record-tying three first-round picks, while Louisiana State University also produced 9 draftees, emphasizing the Southeastern Conference's talent dominance. Other notable programs included the University of Georgia with 8 picks and both the University of Florida and University of South Carolina with 7 each.

Alabama's draft class exemplified the program's emphasis on trench play and defensive backs, with three offensive linemen and two defensive backs selected in the first two rounds alone, underscoring head coach Nick Saban's system of recruiting elite athletes and developing NFL-ready skills. LSU's selections leaned heavily toward defense, producing six defensive players including two first-rounders, a reflection of defensive coordinator John Chavis's impact on player preparation. Notre Dame contributed 6 players, with a focus on skill positions like tight end and linebacker, bolstered by the Irish's rigorous academic and athletic development under Brian Kelly. Florida State's haul spanned all rounds, with three first-rounders and late-round specialists, demonstrating broad positional strength from consistent recruiting success in the ACC. A total of 15 schools produced four or more draftees, accounting for over half of the 254 selections and illustrating concentrated talent pipelines from powerhouse programs, predominantly in the SEC and ACC conferences. This distribution highlighted how elite coaching and recruiting—such as Saban's at , which amassed top-10 recruiting classes annually—fueled multiple high-round picks and sustained program success.

Cultural Impact

The 2013 NFL Draft received extensive media coverage, broadcast over three days from April 25 to 27 at in , with and providing live telecasts. The first round drew a combined average of 7.7 million viewers across both networks, marking the third-most-watched first round in draft history at the time, though down slightly from the previous year's 8.1 million. This event highlighted the growing prominence of the draft as a major sports spectacle, amplified by pre-draft hype around prospects like quarterbacks and E.J. Manuel. One of the draft's most discussed moments involved Notre Dame linebacker , whose unexpected slide to the 38th overall pick by the was widely attributed to lingering doubts from the January revelation of the elaborate girlfriend hoax involving a fabricated online relationship and reported death. Te'o, once projected as a top-10 selection, became a focal point for media analysis on character concerns and off-field narratives influencing draft decisions. The story fueled debates in sports commentary about the intersection of personal scandals and professional evaluations. The draft class also gained visibility through entertainment media, including HBO's "Hard Knocks" series, which followed the Cincinnati Bengals' training camp in the summer of 2013 and featured several of their recent picks, such as tight end Tyler Eifert and defensive end Margus Hunt, offering behind-the-scenes glimpses into their transitions to the NFL. Additionally, ESPN integrated social media enhancements during the broadcast, including custom hashtags like #AskMelKiper for fan interactions with draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr., live voting polls, and image sharing, which boosted online engagement and turned the event into a interactive digital phenomenon.

Long-term impact

The 2013 NFL draft class has produced 25 unique Pro Bowlers through the 2024 season, including standouts like Travis Kelce with 10 selections and offensive tackle with 6. This figure places the class above average in terms of recognition compared to recent drafts, though it ranks as a leaner group overall in star power and elite talent production according to post-draft evaluations. Key contributors include DeAndre (5 Pro Bowls) and Zach (3 Pro Bowls), highlighting the class's depth at skill positions despite initial perceptions of weakness. No players from the 2013 class have been inducted into the as of 2025, and early enshrinement remains unlikely given the typical five-year eligibility wait and career longevity requirements. However, Kelce is widely regarded as a first-ballot lock due to his record 10 Pro Bowls, three championships, and status as the NFL's all-time leader in receiving yards by a . also possesses strong Hall credentials with five Pro Bowls and three First-Team honors, though his lack of playoff success tempers his trajectory. On the opposite end, quarterback E.J. Manuel, selected 16th overall, exemplifies the class's high-profile disappointments, managing just 14 starts over five seasons before exiting the league. The class demonstrated notable strengths at offensive tackle, where first-round picks Eric Fisher and Lane Johnson emerged as anchors for championship-caliber lines; Johnson earned three First-Team All-Pro nods and started in Super Bowl LII, while Fisher contributed to the Chiefs' Super Bowl LIV victory. In contrast, the quarterback position proved a glaring weakness, with first-rounder Geno Smith delivering inconsistent results across 10 seasons, including multiple benchings and trades, and no other signal-caller from the class achieving franchise-quarterback status. Beyond individual accolades, the 2013 class has influenced multiple Super Bowl outcomes, most prominently through Kelce's pivotal role in the Chiefs' victories in Super Bowls LIV, LVII, and LVIII, where he amassed 21 receptions for 217 yards and 2 touchdowns. Ertz caught the game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl LII for the Eagles, and Fisher anchored the line in Super Bowl LIV. Career approximate value metrics underscore a solid but not dominant legacy, with top performers like Kelce (90 AV), Johnson (87 AV), and Hopkins (82 AV) driving the class's total impact, though overall production falls short of elite drafts like 2011 or 2017.
