Three teams traded up to draft quarterbacks in the first dozen picks of the 2017 NFL Draft, dramatically altering their futures.

The Chicago Bears were the first to make headlines Thursday, swapping the third overall pick, a third-round pick, a fourth-round pick, and a 2018 third-round pick to San Francisco 49ers to move up one spot to No. 2 overall and select Mitchell Trubisky.

The Kansas City Chiefs were next, making a shocking jump from 27th to 10th overall and giving the Buffalo Bills their third-round pick and 2018 first-round pick for the right to select Patrick Mahomes.

Not long after the Chiefs' stunner, the Houston Texans reached a similar deal with the Cleveland Browns to trade the 25th overall pick and their 2018 first-round selection to move up to No. 12 overall and select Deshaun Watson.

Three blockbuster deals for three quarterbacks. Which was best?
