Round 1

Picks 17-32
17. Jaguars: Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU

"Here's a guy" that's gonna go way earlier than people think. Just led the NCAA in touchdown catches and ran a 4.3 at the combine. I guess they signed Gabe Davis but they still need help at this position.


18. Bengals: J.C. Latham, OT, Alabama

I think they keep Tee Higgins and work something out. They need a right tackle. Like really need one. I think Fuaga it pretty high on a lot of teams board but don't think he gets this far and they would have to trade up for him. But Latham I also think might not be too far behind.


19. Rams: Laiatu Latu, DE, UCLA

Ah their first first round pick in like 25 years. And they're still better at drafting than half the teams in the league. Latu makes sense here. Really high IQ football guy. Right into McVay's system. No more Aaron Donald either.


20. Steelers: Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas

Think wide receiver will be the pick here given how good of a class this is. With Arnold and Mitchell off the board I think this pick will be at least on offense.


21. Dolphins: Troy Fautanu, G/OT, Washington

I bet they love Fuaga. But I think a lot of teams do and he will be gone. No more Wilkins so I think they address that with Fuaga off the board. I now have Fiske off the board before Newton. Didn't see that coming.


22. Eagles: Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson

Their secondary had an absolute melt down in the wild card round. Like what the hell was that? No more Kelce but they seem to have had his replacement ready and signed Dickerson so I think they're fine on the interior. Corner. Big need. Take the best one available.


23. Vikings: Jer'Zhan Newton, DT, Illinois

Minnesota probably won't be picking here since they'll be moving up for the fourth QB of the draft. But I think Newton goes somewhere in this range.


24. Cowboys: Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma

Is it me or do the Cowboys pick anywhere from 18-26 every year? This is going to be their pick I already know it. I bet they pick 21-23 next year.


25. Packers: Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State

Lot of potential in this pick here. I think the priority will be on the O line after losing Bakhtiari.


26. Buccaneers: Chop Robinson, OLB/DE, Penn State

I'd bet Tampa goes on one of the lines with the top three corners off the board. No more Shaq Barrett either so this pick would make more sense given how deep the offensive line class is.


27. Cardinals: Kris Jenkins, DT, Michigan

They need a ton of help on defense especially on the interior. Kris Jenkins I think sneaks into the first round. He's done everything right through the pre draft process and was one of the best players on that Michigan team.


28. Bills: Xavier Legette, WR, South Carolina

Bills have to go WR. I think they would lean toward Legette than anyone else here. There are so many good receivers it's all preference and I also want to put like eight of them in round one. But I think Legette is what the Bills will be looking for with the size and speed.


29. Lions: Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama

I don't really know why he is falling but I think Detroit would be an ideal spot. They need a cover corner and I think he was the better man to man cover guy last year at Bama. Not a knock on Arnold.


30. Ravens: Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia

They just lost like three starting offensive linemen. This pick is on the line.


31. 49ers: Darius Robinson, DT, Missouri

Just starting to throw guys in I think will go at the end of round one here but I think San Fran would make this pick or someone could move up to get him. Missouri had a great defense last year and Robinson was a big reason why.


32. Chiefs: Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas

They'll probably make this pick. Why not?
