It is officially known as the NFL Annual Player Selection Meeting. The draft was held April 18 -- 19, 1998, at the Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York. The league also held a supplemental draft after the regular draft and before the regular season. Before the draft, there was a debate on whether the Indianapolis Colts should select Peyton Manning or Ryan Leaf with the first overall pick ( both were considered excellent prospects and future franchise quarterbacks ). Leaf was considered to have more upside and a stronger throwing arm, while Manning was considered a prospect who was NFL ready and more mature. On the day of the draft, the Colts selected Manning due to Leaf 's disdain for Indianapolis. Manning went on to be a five - time Most Valuable Player award winner, the most of any player in NFL history, and a two - time Super Bowl champion, whereas Leaf was out of the NFL by 2002 and is considered one of the biggest draft busts in NFL history.
