Quarterback Andrew Luck from Stanford was the first pick of the 2012 NFL Draft. Andrew Luck was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts.

Andrew Luck was redshirted his first year at Stanford; he would go on to be the starter for three years. During his college football career, he threw for 9,430 yards, 82 TDs, and 22 interceptions. He twice came in second in the Heisman voting, as well as was selected an All-American twice. In 2011 he won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, the Maxwell Award, and the Walter Camp Player of the Year Award.

Andrew Luck was selected by the Indianapolis Colts as the first overall pick of the 2012 NFL Draft, which resulted in Peyton Manning being released by the Colts, thereby they did not have to pay Manning his $28m roster bonus.

Andrew Luck is a three-time Pro Bowler and led the NFL in passing touchdowns in 2014. In 2015 Luck’s season was cut short by an injury. Time will tell how great of a quarterback Luck is or isn’t.
