2005 NFL draft

The 2005 NFL draft was the procedure by which National Football League teams selected amateur college football players. It is officially known as the NFL Annual Player Selection Meeting. The draft was held April 23–24, 2005. The league also held a supplemental draft that year, which was held after the regular draft but before the regular season. The draft took place at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City,[1][2] and was televised for the 26th consecutive year on ESPN and ESPN2. It was the first to be held at the Javits Center after Madison Square Garden was utilized for previous drafts since 1995.[3]

The draft is best known for quarterback Aaron Rodgers falling to the 24th selection after being projected as one of the top picks.[4] Rodgers believed he would be taken first overall by the San Francisco 49ers, but after the 49ers selected quarterback Alex Smith, Rodgers was passed on by teams with other positional needs until he was drafted by the Green Bay Packers.[5][6][7] The fall drew retrospective scrutiny due to Rodgers developing a reputation as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.[8][9][10][11]

Compensatory selections were distributed amongst fourteen teams, with the Philadelphia Eagles and St. Louis Rams garnering the most with four picks each.[12] Three of the first five picks were running backs, an NFL Draft first.[13]

Quarterback Alex Smith, taken first overall, struggled for his first few years before breaking out as a serviceable starter after 2011 for the San Francisco 49ers, a Pro-Bowler with the Kansas City Chiefs, and a starter with the Washington Football Team. He came back from a severe leg injury in his final season.
Cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones, taken sixth overall, enjoyed a long career despite several off-the-field incidents.
Linebacker DeMarcus Ware, taken 11th overall, was a stalwart on the Dallas Cowboys defense before finishing his career with the Denver Broncos.
Linebacker Shawne Merriman, taken 12th overall, was a 3-time All-Pro and led the NFL in sacks in 2006.
Aaron Rodgers, taken 24th overall, is regarded as one of the most talented quarterbacks of all time and holds the record for lowest career interception percentage.
Receiver Roddy White, taken 27th overall, was a 4-time Pro Bowler and holds many Atlanta Falcons receiving records.
Tight end Heath Miller, taken 30th overall, won two Super Bowls with the Pittsburgh Steelers and was a fan-favorite.
Receiver Vincent Jackson, taken 61st overall in the second round, was a 3-time Pro Bowler with the San Diego Chargers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Running back Frank Gore, taken 65th overall in the third round, is currently 3rd place on the NFL's all-time career rushing list.
Defensive end Justin Tuck, drafted 74th overall in the third round, won two Super Bowls with the New York Giants and was a 2-time All-Pro.
Guard Richie Incognito, drafted 81st overall, is a 4-time Pro Bowler, but has also drawn controversy including a bullying scandal in 2013.
Running back/kick returner Darren Sproles, drafted in the fourth round, has the fifth-most career all-purpose yards in the NFL.
Ryan Fitzpatrick, drafted in the seventh round, started for nine different teams during his long career as a journeyman quarterback.
