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
