Last night our Miami Hurricanes made history yet again. The 2025 NFL Draft kicked off last night (4/24/25) and Mr. QB1 our forever Quarterback Cam Ward became the 3rd Miami Hurricane to be drafted #1 overall in modern NFL Draft era. He follows the likes of former Canes Vinny Testaverde (1987) and Russell Maryland (1991). Miami is now one of only six teams to have produced 3 or more No. 1 overall picks in the common draft era.
